Built against Qt 6.2 and glibc 2.35, so the packages run on any
distribution that ships Qt 6.2 or newer. Packages are unsigned; check
SHA256SUMS before installing.

Vanta never downloads games. OnlineFix detection reports what it finds
and never claims a fix works; see ONLINEFIX.md.

What is new in 1.1.0

This release adds native BepInEx support and a per-game runner
picker, makes porting from another launcher more faithful, and
fixes the launch log and the running state.

Runners and mods

  • A native Linux game with BepInEx installed now loads it through the run_bepinex.sh doorstop launcher, so the preloader no longer goes missing on a native launch.
  • The runner tab lists every Wine and Proton build Vanta detects, so a game can move to another build, such as proton-cachyos, without typing a path.
  • The BepInEx option explains what it does for the selected runner instead of always naming the Windows winhttp override.

Porting from another launcher

  • Lutris records the runner as Wine even for a Proton build. Vanta now reads the version string, so a proton-cachyos game ports as Proton and reuses the matching installed build.
  • The game prefix is carried across, and a nested wine.overrides value is no longer mistaken for the build.
  • Heroic per-game Proton selections are honoured the same way.

Launch feedback

  • The launch log is written while the game is running, so the viewer is not empty during a session.
  • The running state clears the moment the game exits, so a game closed on its own stops showing Stop.
  • The detail strip reports the live state instead of a stale, unset last-played time.

Filtering

  • The filter menu hides the games that need attention and any runner, and remembers the choice across restarts.

Packages are unsigned. Every binary in them needs only Qt 6.2 and glibc 2.35,
so one package runs across a whole distribution family rather than a single
release.
