Explorer

  • Explorer is a new feature to explore your collection..
    • Identify missing and out of date content - e.g. missing wheel, out of date table video, etc.
    • Apply customizable filters to locate the table(s) of interest.
    • View and edit all of the table information stored in your database.
    • Open the content to see how it looks/sounds/etc - e.g. open images, play videos, listen to table audio, etc.

General

  • Rebranded feature names to better describe their purpose..
    • Feeder (previously Importer) - check online feeds for updated content.
    • Merger (previously Rebuilder) - merge updated content into collection.
    • Cleaner (previously Scanner) - clean existing collection content (e.g. after merge).
  • Enhanced Settings..
    • Added wizards to automatically assign folders based on detected product installations: Visual Pinball X, Pinball Y, and Pinball X.
    • Categorize folders as either critical or non-critical. Non-critical folders (e.g. table videos) that are missing are no longer required to use Merger, Cleaner, or Explorer. Specifically, this is designed to cater for Pinball Y where the folders aren't created until content is added.
  • Updated visuals..
    • Larger buttons, text, tool tips, etc.
    • More consistent button 'traffic light' color usage - red: error, orange: warning: green: success, blue: info.
    • Fixed dynamic tool tips that weren't updating correctly so an application restart is no longer required.
  • Miscellaneous performance improvements and bug fixes.

Feeder

  • Added optional 'exclude filters' to ignore content updates for specified features - e.g. VR only, sound mod, etc.
  • Fixed grid row selection so it works when clicking empty margin space above and below the text.

Merger

  • Added support for new fuzzy logic content matching scenarios. For example, additional acronyms such as TOTAN (tales of the arabian nights), new authors, different version formats, etc.
  • Improved fuzzy logic to better handle scenario where identical confidence scores are generated for multiple database matches.

Cleaner

  • Dropped 'explorer' window and migrated it to the new stand alone feature 'Explorer' (refer above).
