This release was long overdue...

A bunch of PRs from jg18 have been merged which bring us the following improvements:

  • Mod sorting!
  • Faster mod listing (searching and tab switching should be much smoother now)
  • A bunch of improvements for the develop tab
  • Network settings
  • FSO (and other builds) is hidden by default now but can be re-enabled in the settings
  • A better welcome wizard
  • FS2 mods are hidden by default if retail is not installed but can be enabled through settings
  • A better post-setup retail install prompt
  • You now get an actually helpful popup when you click the help button!

... I think that's everything. Huge thanks to jg18 for his work!

Other changes in this release are:

  • Resumable downloads: If a download is interrupted, Knossos will no longer re-download the whole file but instead resume where it was interrupted saving a lot of time and bandwidth!
  • Resumable uploads: If your mod upload is interrupted, Knossos will automatically retry the upload and resume it as well. For each interruption at most 10 MiB need to be re-uploaded no matter how big your mod is.
    This change hopefully resolves a lot of painful upload issues.
  • Almost all Nebula requests will be automatically retried. This should make Knossos more reliable when you're on a bad connection. Let me know if this helps!
  • The Nebula settings section has been improved. It should be more obvious now whether you're logged in or not.
  • You can enable Knossos' debug log in the settings now as well as open or upload it. This should make future troubleshooting easier.
  • The critical error window now contains links to Discord, HLP and GitHub which hopefully encourages people to report bugs and make it easier for us to help them.
  • You can now force Knossos to close even if there are tasks running in the background.
  • A bunch of annoying bugs have been fixed.

Sorry, no Linux releases this time. I don't want people to automatically update into an RC and making a new package just for RCs is a pain. Building from source shouldn't be too hard though.... :X
