Cocoon 3.0.5

Highlights

HUGE DISCORD CHANGES. PLEASE READ

  • Removed Discord Social features (friends, etc) to prepare for Hive (read #announcements for more information)
  • Cocoon can still show Rich Presence and no longer requires any authorisation at all!! As long as you have Discord installed and logged in on your device, it will just work! No more annoying popups, sign ins or permissions. (there is still a toggle under Integrations to disable Rich Presence, but it now no longer requires any sign in to enable)
  • Discord Rich Presence now shows the current game as its title instead of "Cocoon"
  • Discord Rich Presence shows a Game Information button to other users (doesn't show for yourself for some reason so dw if you don't see it), taking them to the currently played game's IGDB page
  • Discord Rich Presence now stays connected reliably while playing in single-screen mode

OTHERS

  • Cocoon can now watch your ROM folders for new games without constantly rescanning your library
  • New games and supported platform folders are grouped into one notification where you can review everything found and choose what to import
  • Jingles can now be scraped whenever a jingle repository is configured
  • Added a Random smart folder
  • Added a Random Game widget
  • Added an Emulators smart folder, keeping emulator apps out of Android Games
  • Android apps can now be edited from Home, folders, the App Drawer and dock, with per-app screen, game, playtime and platform preferences
  • Added full support for Wii U games stored in Loadiine folders, importing each title as one game with its folder name

Library and setup

  • First-time setup now lets you choose an installed default player for every platform found during ROM import
  • Imported Android shortcuts now let you choose a platform and whether to add them to Home before saving
  • Auto session tracking now saves a session after 10 seconds instead of 30 seconds

Controls and interface

  • Game context menus now include Hide and Favorite actions
  • Y now jumps directly to Edit, while RB quickly toggles Favorite
  • Android apps now include App Info in their Y menu on Home
  • Select can now toggle and cycle the expanded game info view in single-screen mode, just like X
  • Smart folder creation, editing, genre, regex and platform selection now use Cocoon's consistent 3.0 dialog design
  • The Add Platform dialog in Library & Data settings now uses Cocoon's 3.0 dialog design
  • Dock Style settings previews now show icons from the selected icon pack

Platforms and integrations

  • Signing into RetroAchievements now automatically matches supported imported games with their achievement IDs without replacing manual choices
  • Pokémon Mini games can now be matched with RetroAchievements
  • Android Games is now a built-in scraping platform, using Android-specific IGDB and LaunchBox matches plus SteamGridDB artwork
    (Because automatic Android matches can vary, use Scrape Game in Edit Game or the media picker instead of automatic Scrape settings)
  • Screenshots and videos can now be selected independently when scraping games
  • Windows platform settings now show one shared Play time tracking option below all player choices
  • PictoVerse integration has been temporarily disabled

Other fixes

  • Large library rescans no longer run out of memory while checking existing games
  • Rescanning now removes games whose ROMs are no longer present
  • Removing a configured ROM folder now removes its games on the next complete rescan
  • Incomplete or unavailable storage scans no longer incorrectly remove games
  • Overlapping ROM folders are handled safely when checking for removed games
  • If a removed ROM returns later, Cocoon reconnects its preserved Activity Log history
  • Uninstalled Android apps and emulators now leave the grid, folders, Add Games and dock automatically
  • Playtime sessions now save reliably when the device sleeps
  • Older legacy backups now restore visible playtime totals correctly
  • Unmatched restored game data now retries quietly without repeated notifications
  • ES-DE integration now links Xbox 360 artwork and metadata to the Xbox 360 platform correctly
  • Music packs now load correctly when their track filename capitalisation differs
  • Themes and asset packs now ignore folder capitalisation
  • A missing theme component now falls back to the default without blocking the rest of the theme or catalogue
  • Cocoon no longer creates repeated numbered copies of its data folders when folder capitalisation differs or services initialise together
  • Platform downloads and ROM scans now play the loading and completion sounds during first-time setup (regression from 3.0)
