• An API for interacting with save data has been added. See the UserData API for more info
• The nuget package has been updated with the new API

Note: All subsequent releases will follow semantic versioning.

Full Changelog: 0.0.9...1.0.0

Changes

• Better Strackers, DPSTickFix, and BetterInputs compatibility (Thanks to @Pizzabelly for the improvement suggestion)
• The OnResourceLoad no longer adds strong references to loaded resources, if you want to keep one alive you must explicitly call MakeStrongRef on it first
• Fixed the WeaponType enum

This release is still mostly backwards compatible with 0.0.7.2. Updated NuGet Packages coming soon.

Full Changelog: 0.0.8...0.0.9

Better Input Detection + Tic Rate Fix Compatibility

This adds explicit compatibility code for Better Input Detection and Tic Rate Fix. Previously there were certain situations in which having both SPL and one of these mods installed, would lead to a crash. This should now be fully resolved.

This release is fully backwards compatible with 0.0.7.

More Changes

• Document config and menu key by @jn64 in #51
• ImGui usability tweaks by @Pizzabelly in #58

Full Changelog: 0.0.7.2...0.0.8

Linux (Wine/Proton) Support 🎉

SPL is now properly compatible with linux via Wine/Proton. Thank you to everyone who contributed to #44.
See the wiki for installation instructions.

More Changes:

• Small stability improvements
• Calls to PatternScanner.FindFirst are now automatically cached for improved performance

This release is fully backwards compatible with 0.0.7 (on the Windows side).

Full Changelog: 0.0.7.1...0.0.7.2

Update for game version 15.23. Aside from that there are a few minor bugfixes.

Hopefully future game updates should no longer require an update from me.

Full Changelog: 0.0.7...0.0.7.1

This is mostly a stability release with improvements in regards to DirectX hooking, which now does not use a dummy swapchain approach anymore, and thus shouldn't conflict with other overlays as much.

New APIs:

• Custom DTI registration
• Creating custom FSM conditions
• Action cloner implementation: allows creating new actions for monsters (see examples)

Small changes:

• Monster.GetAllMonsters is now cached and returns Monster[] instead of IEnumerable<Monster>
• Fonts are not rebuilt when quitting to title (fixes a crash)
• Various documentation improvements

Full Changelog: 0.0.6...0.0.7

Update for game version 15.22

This release is functionally equivalent to 0.0.6.

Another small release (Next one will probably have some more new features):

• Minor Bugfixes on both developer and user end
• Improved error reporting
• New Font loading API (via Renderer.RegisterFont)

Full Changelog: 0.0.5...0.0.6

This is a pretty small release with mostly bugfixes and minor features. The API remains unchanged and should therefore be backwards compatible with 0.0.4.1 and 0.0.4.

• Allow loading native dependencies from the same directory instead of putting them in the root
  • Also allows for setting custom dll load paths
• Configurable ImGui Menu hotkey
• D3D Hooks are now enabled by default
• Possible fix for #35

Full Changelog: 0.0.4.1...0.0.5
