NOIRADIX Studio & PixelArt 2.1.4

Stable maintenance release. PIX2 remains version 1.1, with PIX2 1.0 read compatibility.

Highlights

• Updated the Studio and PixelArt Discord community links to the current invite.
• Added a Linux and macOS launcher for downloading and running the browser app locally with Python 3.
• Updated product and Unity export descriptions to state that the Unity importer creates sprite assets and native .anim clips; Animator Controller setup remains in Unity.
• Refreshed README and product metadata for the current SourceForge listing and supported workflow.
• Updated visible app versions, cache-busting references, and release documentation to 2.1.4.

Compatibility and limitations

• No PIX2 grammar, serialization, storage, or compatibility changes. PIX2 1.0 read compatibility remains supported.
• The Linux/macOS launcher requires Python 3 and a desktop browser opener (open on macOS or xdg-open on Linux). It binds the local server to 127.0.0.1 and stops when the launcher is interrupted.
• The local app is client-side; external links and optional third-party services still require an internet connection.

Verification
