1.4.0

• Added
  • Mod Categories
    • Assign one or more categories to a mod.
    • Group mods by category.
    • Add and edit categories.
  • Mod color tagging: show a color next to a mod's name as a mnemonic.
  • New UI layout that moves most buttons to a left sidebar.
    • Optional, enable it from the toolbar.
  • Mods page: new Header Styles: Line and Small Card.
    • Small Card is a shorter, more compact version of the previous mod group UI.
    • Right-click on a mod group (e.g. Enabled) and select Header Style.
  • Hullmod Viewer.
  • Dashboard: added edit button next to game launcher path to show that you can set a custom launch file (e.g. fr.bat).
  • Mods page: "Updates" group pinned to the top. May be configured/turned off.
  • Mods page: Right-click shortcut to view a mod's ships/weapons/hullmods/portraits.
  • Mods page: mod info tooltip on hovering the mod title.
  • Ships viewer: .skin files are now shown (e.g. Falcon (P)).
  • Ships/Weapons/Portraits Viewers: "# filters active" indicator.
  • Two new themes: Turkey (real), Pride.
• Fixed
  • Enabling a mod could leave multiple mod versions enabled (introduced in 1.3.4).
  • Window position/size sometimes getting reset between restarts.
  • Light themes now suck slightly less and cleaned up a couple more themes.
  • Scroll position on theme selector menu would reset.
  • More cases of invalid json are now treated as valid, meaning more ships/weapons are loaded.
• Changed
  • Removed JRE Manager.
    • Every Mikohime version uses a different file structure and installation method, which would require TriOS patches for compatibility.
    • TriOS supports setting custom launcher files (e.g. Miko_Rouge.bat).
    • It will automatically find launcher settings files and update them when you assign RAM allocation.
    • With vanilla now using Java 17, you no longer require a third-party performance mod like before.
    • tldr; install Mikohime/Fast Rendering without TriOS, then set the custom launcher file on the TriOS Settings page, and use TriOS to assign RAM.
  • Mods page: Clicking the version button now immediately enables/disables a mod, rather than opening a mod version menu.
    • New sub-button will open the version menu instead.
  • Mods page: Groups have a more readable font.
  • VRAM Estimate on Mods page hides the exact VRAM estimates unless you hover over the VRAM column.
    • The new, smaller mod group UI made it look very messy with so many numbers visible.
  • Ships/Weapons Viewers: Moved some filters on the toolbar into the filter panel.
  • Mods page: When hovering a mod name, show mod info tooltip.
  • Ships/Weapons Viewers: Images smaller than the display area won't be scaled up by default.
  • Improved error message when downloading a mod actually downloads a text file.
  • Improved notification behavior even more.
  • Ship Viewer: ship icons are less blurry.
  • Too many other tiny tweaks to list.

1.4.0-preview01

• Added
  • Mod Categories
    • IN PREVIEW. Expect things to change. Expect categories you make or modify to get reset.
    • Current default categories are AI-gen placeholder and will change.
    • Looking for feedback on how the changes look and feel, and what's missing.
  • Mod Group layouts: Line and Small Card.
    • Small Card is a shorter, more compact version of the previous mod group UI.
• Changed
  • Mod groups have a more readable font.
  • VRAM Estimate on Mods page hides the exact VRAM estimates unless you hover over the VRAM column.
    • The new, smaller mod group UI made it look very messy with so many numbers visible.

1.3.4

• Added
  • Portraits now read game data to display more info.
  • Portrait Viewer/Replacer now has filters.
  • Warning if there are two of the same mod with the same version in your mods folder.
  • Log viewer now has a searchbar and makes better use of space.
  • Assign a custom RAM allocation.
  • Option to make the mod list on the Dashboard colorful!
    • Also added one to the Mods list but it's kind of bad.
• Fixed
  • Lag when changing mods after having opened ships/weapons/portraits viewers.
  • Linux: crash when disabling a mod.
    • Note: Linux users, make sure that TriOS has permissions to your Starsector folder.
• Changed
  • The Mod Browser's webview is now disabled by default.
    • This is to address crash loops that would happen on some systems, where if a user ever selected the mod browser, TriOS would crash on load.
  • Ship/Weapon filters are now sorted alphabetically (except hull sizes) and not reset when the UI refreshes.
  • Loading ships/weapons is slightly less laggy now (limited UI rebuilds and moved some logic to async).
  • Cleaned up download notifications and added an "installation progress" notification.
  • Improved json/yaml parsing performance by 20%.
  • Aligned dashboard mod list mod names.

1.3.4-preview04

Removed ModAddedToast class and merged it with updated ModDownloadToast.
