KarPur Launcher 0.3.0

KarPur Launcher 0.3.0: a new look, your team on the start page, a Saves tab, all shaders prepared during the build, and fixes for players whose build or game failed.

New

• Home page: a start page in your edition's colours (Violet purple, Scarlet red), with Play, the state of your build, your last save and your current team (name and level).
  • The game writes the team when it saves, so the page shows it after your first save with this version.
• Saves tab:
  • Export your save as a .zip, Import one, open its folder, or restore one of your last saves.
  • The current save is always kept as a backup first.
• All shaders prepared during the build: the last step of Build prepares about 36,000 shaders from your own game files. New areas, Pokémon and attacks appear without the stutter of first-time shader builds.
  • The first time this takes about 5 minutes; after updates, about a minute.
• Compatibility mode (Settings): turn it on if your game crashes right after the character creation.

Fixed

• The build stopped at "Self-test" (exit code 3221225501) on processors without AVX2. The build now detects your processor and builds for it.
• The dropdowns no longer flash the old square look on hover.

Changed

• Every page has its own icon, and pages open at their top.
• A palette per edition across the whole launcher; the logo follows it.

Updating from 0.2.0

Open the Update tab of your launcher and install 0.3.0, or download KarPur-Launcher.exe below. It then rebuilds what changed and prepares the shaders (a few minutes). Your saves and settings stay.

Requirements reminder

• The base game must be an .xci (a cartridge dump). A base game as .nsp stops the build with an error about the shared fonts folder.
• The update must be 4.0.0.

Only Pokémon Violet 4.0.0 has been tested by the maintainer; Scarlet works according to community reports. The launcher contains no game files. Everything built from your game stays on your PC: do not share it.
