https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/44efd578-2afc-4fb9-9dce-d3b8107474c5

  • Added a progress bar to the splash window
  • Updated the splash window strings
  • Added tooltips to most options in the Settings window
  • Most settings can now be changed in real time without restarting the app Settings that still require a restart are marked with an asterisk (*) after their names
  • The gamecontrollerdb is now updated weekly
  • Categories in the Overview panel are now sorted alphabetically
  • Implemented smooth scrolling
  • Kept Proton runners read-only during extraction. Thanks @vsharha
  • Long game titles are now truncated in List mode to prevent the window from stretching
  • The absolute path is now set for PROTONPATH to prevent issues
  • Improved carousel animations

Fixed

  • Fixed some inconsistencies in interface customization
  • Fixed an issue where scrolling would stop before reaching the end when navigating through games using the keyboard or gamepad
  • Fixed an issue where the post-launch script would be killed when closing the game

Performance Improvements

  • Covers and banners are now loaded on demand
  • Images are resized to match their display scale
  • Image memory is now freed when scrolling
  • Banners are now loaded in a separate thread
  • Removed and modified visual effects to reduce rendering overhead
  • These changes reduced resource usage and improved scrolling smoothness. In a small library, these changes should go unnoticed. However, in a large library, especially in Covers mode, the difference is huge. This synthetic test was performed in Covers mode, scrolling through a library of 1,000 games on a display with 100% scaling. The increase in CPU usage during scroll is expected, as the 1,000 images are now loaded on demand instead of all at once during startup.
