Simple VS Manager 1.6.3

Improvements and Fixes:

Modlists "Local" and "Online" tab persistent selection

Simple VS Manager 1.6.2

• Features added:

  • Automatic backup of VintagestoryData folder when "Launch Vintage Story" button is pressed
  • Experimental, report any bugs please - and let me know if the backups takes up a lot of space (Shouldn't really)
  • Disabled by default, enable in File menu
  • Roll back to the exact state of the data folder at the moment of game launch - so mods, clientsettings, configs etc
  • Unchanged game files will not be copied again to save disk space - they are saved once and then referenced
  • You cannot roll back to a backup if the backup was made with another data folder set, also the Vintage Story version has to match.

• Improvements & Fixes:

  • Fixed bug where loading a modlist would add the mod to the disabledMods list in clientsettings.json, but without the version number, causing a crash when joining servers
  • Modlist tab now includes Local mods, switch between local and online easily

• Modlist tab now includes Local mods, switch between local and online easily
• Other stuff I can't remember right now

Simple VS Manager 1.6.0

Features added:

• Save Modlists as PDF - generates a PDF with name, description etc and all the mods (titles linked to their mod db page).
• PDF Modlists can be loaded just like any other modlist, mods and configs saved in PDF metadata
• Drag and drop .json or .pdf modlists to load them
• Game Profiles - switch between multiple Vintage Story installations. Set a separate Game (Vintagestory) and Data (VintagestoryData) folder.
• Each Game Profile keeps its own custom shortcut, skipped mod versions and mod usage tracking for the user report reminder. All Game Profiles share the same caches and all other config settings.
• Disable Auto-refresh (in File menu) - for faster loading and less bandwidth usage, use the Refresh button to manually update whenever you want
• Scan for mod config files (in Help & Advanced menu) - simple heuristic matching scan to automatically set config paths for mods.
• Copy install command for server - enable "Enable server options" in "Help & Advanced" menu and a "Copy to Server" button appears on selected mods. Copies a install command to run on servers, for example "/moddb install [email protected]"

Improvements and fixes:

• Huge performance increase, removed redundant update functions, fixed duplicate scanning etc
• Hiding a column now disables loading of column data - for example hide "Tags" and "User Reports" for a performance increase.
• Much faster tab switching, separated Installed mods and Mod DB to separate datagrids
• Modlist description box size increased
• "Menu Guide" in the "Help & Advanced" menu now describes every menu item and its function
• Other minor design and performance fixes
