What's new in this release

  • Application Self-Updates
    • instead of showing a link to the releases page when a new version is available, a prompt will appear to download the new release. After the download is complete, close and reopen the program and it should be updated. If for whatever reason the update hasn't installed (should be automatic), you can close the program and manually run "UOAOM Updater.exe" to perform the installation.

Description

A simple tool to install Guild Wars 2 add-ons and check for/install updates for them. Currently, there are only three add-ons supported: ArcDPS (incl. build templates), GW2Radial, and d912pxy.

If you have a previous installation, feel free to extract this version to the same directory and overwrite..

Be sure to read the readme before installing if you haven't already.

Feature Updates/Fixes

  • deleting or disabling add-ons now automatically adjusts the plugin names of any other installed add-ons to compensate for the disabled add-on's plugin being moved out of /bin64/ (which previously could break add-ons that relied on it to be loaded).
  • the above changes are mirrored by adjusting plugin names when re-enabling add-ons.
  • a message and link to the releases page will now display at the top of the opening page if there is a new release of the application available.

Description

A simple tool to install Guild Wars 2 add-ons and check for/install updates for them. Currently, there are only three add-ons supported: ArcDPS (incl. build templates), GW2Radial, and d912pxy.

If you have a previous installation, feel free to extract this version to the same directory and overwrite - that should work given the feature change to config file handling in this update.

Be sure to read the readme before installing if you haven't already.

Feature Updates

  • added "disable" and "enable" buttons for add-ons (remove a plugin from the game folder without deleting the add-on entirely)
  • added ability to read config file from previous installation and update it with new properties from the latest release

Backend Changes

  • general move towards MVVM for the whole application (not finished yet), lots of renaming and restructuring of files/classes
  • documentation
  • tidying up the code

Known Issues

  • disabling an add-on doesn't resolve chainloading conflicts that might arise. I'll try to implement this for both deletion and disabling in the next update.

Note: I didn't mark this as a pre-release since for the /releases/latest API endpoint to display something there has to be a release that isn't pre-release, and I plan on using that endpoint to display a message in the application when an update to it is available.

Pre-release

Description

A simple tool to install Guild Wars 2 add-ons and check for/install updates for them. Currently, there are only three add-ons supported (the three that I use myself) - ArcDPS (incl. build templates), GW2Radial, and d912pxy.

When the program is first run, all selected add-ons will be redownloaded in order to record their version numbers and their .dll filenames as installed1. This step is a result of the changes to config.ini in this update and allows the delete button to work, as well as de-clutters other add-ons' game subfolders compared to the previous implementation.

Changelog

  • added a "delete" button to delete all selected add-ons and their related data (be aware that this includes saved arcdps build templates)
  • added a "make default" button
  • installed add-on versions are recorded in config.ini
  • filenames of installed add-ons are stored in config.ini
  • a message box appears when an unhandled exception occurs, instead of directly crashing to desktop. Working on adding error logging.
  • descriptive text over the progress bar is more informative and includes version numbers where applicable
  • the add-on selection page now indicates when an add-on is currently installed and its version if applicable
  • tweaked UI image to remove odd corner shading
  • added options dropdown menu with create start menu shortcut option

Known Errors

  • the arcdps build templates .dll file will be redownloaded when checking for arcdps updates even though it should download only if the file doesn't exist. Working on fixing this. fixed

 
 
1If you want to avoid this, while it's much simpler just to let the redownloads happen, you can manually edit config.ini. Add in the versions (e.g. v1.4) of the add-ons you have installed and their filenames (e.g. d3d9.dll, d912pxy.dll, etc) to the relevant subfields of the "version" and "installed" fields respectively. Remember to put quotation marks around the entered values as per proper JSON formatting. Since ArcDPS doesn't use version numbers, use the text of the d3d9.dll.md5sum file at the ArcDPS website in the version->arcdps field.

Pre-release

ArcDPS build templates currently aren't updated by this, but it's top on the list of things to fix.
Other planned features include manually specifying .dll names and having the option to remove add-ons, among others.

GW2 UOAOU Pre-release
Pre-release

A simple tool to check for and install updates to different Guild Wars 2 add-ons, as well as install the add-ons if they are not installed. Currently, there are only three add-ons supported (the three that I use myself) - ArcDPS, GW2Radial, and d912pxy, and deletion of add-ons has not yet been implemented.

The program should have full functionality at the moment, and the user interface is in an acceptable state. Other features and functionality should be added before a 1.0 release (as well as some cleanup and file organization).
