This release adds caching to zipmod loading in Sideloader, drastically speeding up game startup after the first run. Cache gets refreshed as needed if the zipmod files change.

Warning: Because a large part of the Sideloader codebase had to be refactored or changed, it's possible that there are new bugs introduced. Until it's tested by enough people and proved safe, please avoid overwriting your old scenes, characters or game saves, just in case you have to roll back.

What's Changed

• 822046f @ManlyMarco Add caching to Sideloader for faster startup; Other minor speedups and improvements (#169)
• 1f1eeab @ManlyMarco [KKP][ExtSave] Fix plugin data getting lost in KK Party live mode
• 5e5ffc6 @ManlyMarco [UAR] Add "Randomize Slot IDs" advanced setting (on by default)
• 8082d08 @ManlyMarco [UAR] Reduce "Reloading card" log messages (#164)
• cf14773 @ManlyMarco [UAR] Add integrity check to scene import

• 1f8740d @ManlyMarco [KK/KKS][Screencap] Fix compatibility with VideoExport
• Check release notes of r18.0 for more info.

BepisPlugins r18.0

Changelog

• d899fb4 @ManlyMarco [KK/KKS/EC][Screencap] Added new screen capture mode - rgAlpha (#157)
• 09839ec @ManlyMarco [KK/KKS/EC][Screencap] Added ScreenshotManager.Capture API to match AI/HS2 screencap (for use by other plugins). It's recommended to use this new method instead of using AlphaShot2 directly.

The new screen capture mode improves how transparency is handled. It is now possible to properly screenshot partially transparent items or clothes (before, they were captured as solid - there was a hard edge to transparency instead of being granular). Here's a comparison:

The new Alpha capture mode is now the default in KK, KKS and EC. You can still use the old Cutout/Blackout mode by selecting it in plugin settings, or in the Shift+F11 menu.

Warning: The Alpha capture mode may have a higher memory requirement, so it might be necessary to reduce resolution or upscaling rate if screenshots fail to be rendered properly or the game crashes when taking a screenshot.

The Alpha capture shader and the initial POC were made by essu.
