a massive amount of stuff

I've been sitting on this one for a while...sorry lol

support for above 5.1 may or may not come depending on if unreal_asset gets updated

I did have some other stuff i want to add:

• better previews for engine assets
• loading meshes from other maps
• reading override materials
• opening maps from paks
• export as obj
• updating meshes after changing it in editor and after transplanting

but i had too much here to warrant all the time that would take so i'll just release this now

also i have a kofi now if you want to support stove development!

Changes

• dependencies have been updated
• wire materials are green again and respond to selection
• tonemapping is no longer done
• mesh retrieval is now multithreaded
• previously added pak folders are stored and you can select which one to use'
• deselect, toggle fullscreen and hide ui shortcuts added
• make help easier to find
• loose files can now be loaded
• added wireframe mode
• allow limiting fps
• object properties can now be edited with a preview of the name of the export being edited
• improved material for when textures couldn't be resolved
• finally using the right bloody colour space
• transplant into action allows selecting actors and transplanting those selected actors into another map
• loading behaviour fixed for games with mount points and content in folders

Full Changelog: 0.13.1-alpha...0.14.0

some little things

Changes

• materials are now unlit to improve performance and visual clarity
• texture loading is now optional when loading meshes in case memory runs out (i need to multithread/implement an asset server for this anyway)
• duplication works much more smoothly
• missing shortcuts added back in
• render distance setting removed
• post save script actually works now
• improve texture finding to ignore normal maps and some default engine textures (might take longer tho :/)
• update repak version

Full Changelog: 0.13.0-alpha...0.13.1-alpha

bevy backend + texture parsing

Changes

• rewrote with bevy rather than my custom crappy rendering backend
• less aggressive updating (will just notify you of new versions)
• finally parse materials and textures and display them (not guaranteed to show correct textures)
• massively improved the feel of moving, rotating and scaling actors
• mouse picking actually uses raycasts so you can directly click meshes

Full Changelog: 0.12.0-alpha...0.13.0-alpha

support for oodle and 5.1+

Changes

• files are now buffered which should decrease load times
• stove now uses repak so now supports oodle-compressed paks
• serialised types are now added in case they were not in the map before
• actors referencing other actors will not have an invalid actor spawned in (you need to transplant everything referenced and wire it up)
• ^ however deep copy is planned to replace this
• imports in serialisation before serialisation dependencies are now redirected too
• in 5.1+ maps actor names are read from the extra data
• in 5.1+ actor component extra data import and name references are redirected
• ^ below 5.1 does not have this extra data
• 5.1+ meshes are now supported

Full Changelog: 0.11.0-alpha...0.12.0-alpha

yet another backend port + search

Changes

• config file has been moved out of data folder :p
• searchbar for actors has been added
• solid meshes with wireframe
• anti-aliasing

Full Changelog: 0.10.2-alpha...0.11.0-alpha

stupid fixes lmao

Changes

• fix import resolving which checks if parents are equal since sometimes e.g for gen variables those duplicate imports have different parents and are needed
• fix finding meshes in the cache - it kept falling back to bytes
• fix not setting a pak folder leading to an empty one materialising
• fix a refactor goof which let to transplanting not working at all

Full Changelog: 0.10.1-alpha...0.10.2-alpha

0.10.1-alpha

Changes

• mesh rendering is now done in instances
• fnames don't get screwed up anymore

Full Changelog: 0.10.0-alpha...0.10.1-alpha

HUGE revamp

Changes

• optional fields are no longer automatically filled in
• some properties are now laid out differently in the ui
• most pak errors are now communicated through the notification system

• multiple actors can now be selected at a time by using shift + click

• the entire program has been ported to a more stable backend (miniquad -> wgpu)

with this there has been a lot of changes:

• the config directory has been moved from %localappdata% to %appdata%
• window size and position is now stored
• maps can now be opened by dragging their file onto the application window

• meshes are actually rendered properly now (main reason for move)

• mesh rendering has been reverted back to wireframe for now...

pseudoregalia hype!

Changes

• fixes for pseudoregalia and other 5.1 up assets (thank you @localcc) GO PLAY IT IT'S SO GOOD ARGH
• config now stored in a binary serialisation format rather than in a bunch of files

Full Changelog: 0.9.1-alpha...0.9.2-alpha

More meshes work!

Changes

• unborked the reading code so now meshes from all engine versions should be functioning although I still have no clue why faces are missing
• fixed scaling with wheel immediately making objects massive
• allowed axes to show with all transforming actions
• use my new unreal_asset PR changes which minimise string copying so there may be a marginal performance enhancement

Full Changelog: 0.9.0-alpha...0.9.1-alpha

at this point I'm not sure about ac7 stuff since the tests aren't passing for the stream PR and neither me nor localcc know why
