v1.3.0

A fairly overdue release. At one point I probably had planned for more features, however responsibilities grew and I am no longer able to dedicate as much time as I did back then...

This is mostly a maintenance release with some new user-facing features to make it less painful to use the application.

New: Modrinth Pack (.mrpack) import

It is now possible to create a new packwiz modpack from an existing .mrpack file. (#6)
Note that this is done by PW-GUI manually, and is not a part of packwiz.

Fix: NeoForge 26.x version dropdown

Since the release of NeoForge 26.x, PW-GUI's modloader version dropdown no longer works correctly.
This release fixes it.

Note: Packwiz also requires an update to be compatible with NeoForge 26.x. Please perform an update on packwiz first if you intend on performing operations for NeoForge 26.x modpacks.

Other Changes

• Added zooming to the GUI, up to 200%. This will hopefully address accessibility in some cases, as well as serving as a temporary workaround for Hi-DPI screens under XWayland.
• Added more icons to some commonly-used folder
• Added the ability to hold shift to select multiple files, and perform batch deletion on these files.
• Added the ability to show beta modloader versions, just like the "Show Snapshot" checkbox for vanilla MC versions.
• The Plain Text editing panel now uses RSyntaxTextArea, which provides syntax highlighting, and should be better to use than Java's own text editing panel.
• Improved performance on deeply nested folder.
• File Picker now uses the System File Browser dialog, which should be better than whatever swing provides (Made possible with newer FlatLaf releases)
• Many small UI changes

v1.2.0

This is a feature release following v1.1.0, notable changes as follows:

• Add an explicit Reinstall action in the Tool menu, which removes all metadatas and re-add them from CurseForge/Modrinth/Custom URL. (Project-only for now, it won't reinstall the same version yet)
• Add Cancel button for all progress dialogs which allows you to terminate a process abruptly
• Add Change License feature, a new button will appear if you select the LICENSE file.
• Add Author Name option in settings, which can be used to automatically fill the author name when creating a new modpack or changing licenses.
• Recognize Packwiz Meta File with .toml extension (Instead of only .pw.toml)
• Fix potential glitched entries in the file pane if there's a rapid change of files.
• Fix a couple of ways packwiz could get stuck waiting for the user's prompt
