TLAH Studio 4.16.0

Version 4.16.0 gives every product surface—empty states, first-run, backgrounds, installer, and download page—a coherent Nocturne visual identity. All artwork is packaged locally and arrives through the normal signed update path; no reinstall is required.

Product surface identity

  • Shared empty-state illustrations for selecting a chat, starting a conversation, and the Activity panel.
  • Empty-conversation quick starts open Create & Research, fill a safe draft prompt, or open Settings without starting a run automatically.
  • First-run setup opens with a welcome hero while keeping local API-key protection messaging intact.
  • Five official background presets ship under Assets/Backgrounds and appear in Background settings with suggested opacity.
  • Installer wizard brand images and a refreshed multi-resolution application icon.
  • Download page hero art plus refreshed README overview artwork.
  • Create & Research navigation thumbnails and an About dialog banner.

Update delivery

  • Assets are included in the self-contained app package (Assets/**), so an in-app update replaces them with the new installer—no separate uninstall/reinstall step.
  • Background preferences use a v2 storage format that preserves custom images from earlier versions while adding preset IDs.

Validation

  • Release CI still runs the NuGet vulnerability audit, xUnit suite, coverage floors, and warning-free x64 App/Updater builds.
  • Publish verification requires logo size, empty-state art, onboarding hero, five presets, workbench art, EmptyState XBF, and installer wizard bitmaps.
  • Manual checks: Light/Dark empty states, preset apply/reset, first-run hero, High Contrast illustration fallback, narrow/maximized layout, aquarium regression, and silent-update asset presence.

The official artifact is a self-contained Windows x64 installer for Windows 10 build 19041+ and Windows 11. Update metadata is ECDSA-signed and the installer is protected by SHA-256 and Authenticode signing; the current Authenticode certificate remains self-signed, so Windows may display an untrusted-publisher warning.
