Change Log

01-12-2024 (v1.1)

Added:

• Copy/Paste Buttons: Easily copy profiles to another ID.

Changed:

• ViewModel Structure: Restructured ViewModels to extend from a ViewModelBase, allowing property view models to focus purely on their property string values.
• Property Names: Updated property names to match those used in the serverconfig.xml file.
• Property Persistence: Improved how properties are saved to disk. A static class now caches properties provided by each ViewModelBase instead of each ViewModel having its own saving function.
• ComboBox Handling: Enhanced the storage, binding, and conversion of ComboBox options. Conversion to indices now occurs during profile transfer to the game directory.

How to Use

1. Launch the application from a directory of your choice.
2. Adjust settings using the GUI.
3. Save profiles for different configurations.
4. Launch the server directly from the application.
