github itchio/itch v25.2.0

latest releases: v26.1.5-canary, v26.1.3-canary, v26.1.2-canary...
5 years ago
  • Some minor UI fixes (like using a white browser background, or changing search's loading indicator to our new intedeterminate progress indicator)
  • Speeds up initial setup (it was waiting for a timeout unnecessarily even when a dependency was clearl missing)
  • Allows adding an install location directly from the location selector in the "Plan install" dialog

In this release cycle, butler fixes also include:

  • Game update fixes: games with external uploads didn't have their updates queued properly
  • sandbox fixes: the itch.io sandbox was broken when it had never been used before on a computer. It now sets itself up correctly from scratch.
  • AppImages are no longer extracted, they're installed "naked" on disk, and are launched correctly
  • .jar files are launched with the installed JRE, if any. If the user is lacking a JRE, it shows a message saying we need it.
  • Automatic prerequisites for Windows now correctly ignore DLLs which are shipped with the game (vendored) and DLLs which are included in all Windows versions (built-ins).
  • For developers: doing butler push Foobar.app now results in a .zip archive that contains the .app, as opposed to a zip archive that contains the contents of the app bundle. That fixes the most common path for macOS build uploads.
