By Jaybirds
CHANGELOG
Changelog
0.4.16
- Fixed the Thunderstore/r2modman artwork packaging problem affecting earlier public releases.
- Embedded all six default indicator PNGs directly in
BetterStealthIndicator.dll. - On first run, the DLL now creates the artwork under
BepInEx\config\jaybird.BetterStealthIndicator, following the resource/config pattern used by current Valheim mods. - The Thunderstore package no longer depends on an
assetsfolder being preserved underBepInEx\plugins. - Existing extracted PNGs in the config folder are not overwritten, allowing them to be customized.
- Stealth behavior, direct vanilla HUD mirroring, The Beast/Odins Eye selection, and animations are unchanged.
0.4.15
- Rebuilt plugin version as 0.4.15.
- Simplified runtime package to the tested DLL + assets layout.
- Removed loose fallback PNG copies from the package; each selectable art set now loads from its own folder.
- Packaging cleanup after Thunderstore/r2modman asset-install testing.
- Stealth state logic remains the direct vanilla HUD mirror used in 0.4.14.
v0.4.14
- Rebuilt plugin version so BepInEx and Configuration Manager report 0.4.14.
- Restored all The Beast and Odins Eye runtime PNG assets.
- Included fallback stealth indicator assets.
- Packaging fix for Thunderstore/r2modman installs.
v0.4.7
- Replaced the free-text IndicatorSet setting with a simple toggle.
UseOdinsEyeSet = OFFuses The Beast.UseOdinsEyeSet = ONuses Odins Eye.- Cleaned the Odins Eye PNGs to remove much of the surrounding smoky/glow background while preserving the eye artwork.
- Retains direct HUD mirroring, searching motion, and the 4-second detected pulse.
