Requirements

• Windows 10 or 11 (x64)
• An existing SPT install

Release 0.7.0

A settings panel, your own categories, a real download queue, a download cache, changelogs before updating, and no more freezing while big mods install.

Settings

• New settings panel (gear icon): instance info, theme, animations, language, mod source and download options, all in one place.
• Themes: System, Dark, Light and Sand.
• Animations can be turned off. Mouse scrolling is now smooth either way.
• The first launch asks for your language.

Organize

• Categories. Group mods by the source's category, or create your own and drag mods into them. Categories survive updates and folder renames.
• Expanded packages and collapsed categories are remembered.

Updates

• Changelog before updating. A note icon next to each available update shows what changed between your version and the new one.
• Mod names in the update check open the mod's Versions tab, where authors say when a clean install is needed.
• The blocked updates list starts collapsed.

Downloads

• Download queue. One download at a time by default (2 or 3 in settings). Pause, resume, cancel and reorder. Paused downloads resume where they stopped when the server allows it.
• Dependencies and the mod are queued together, and the mod always installs last. Cancelling a dependency asks whether to cancel the mod too.
• Download cache (issue #5). Mods you already downloaded install again without downloading: reinstalling, importing a list, another instance. 5 GB by default, with usage and Clear cache in settings.
• Browse: "Compatible with 4.1.x" and "Fika compatible only" filters.

Fixes

• The app no longer freezes while installing big mods. Installs run in a separate process.
• Installs never run at the same time, so the app can't lose track of an installed mod.
• Truncated downloads are caught before installing.
• Mods with loose DLLs no longer install into a .tmp-forge-download-... folder.
• "Couldn't overwrite" errors on read-only or locked files are handled and explained.

Full details in the README.
