🌍 v0.1.19 - Everything updates live, InstantClone speaks Spanish, and a clearer first run

Hi, s1moscs here!

This release goes after the small things that got in your way: pressing F5 to see a change, setup letting you get lost, an editor that was hard to find your way around, and a dashboard working harder than it needed to while you're live. Oh, and InstantClone now speaks Spanish!

What you get
🔄 Live pages The dashboard and dock update themselves, no F5
🌍 Spanish The dashboard, dock and sign-in page, one click away
🧭 First run A short welcome, and setup that waits until your app is connected
🧩 Integrations A two-column editor, searchable values and a catalog with search
⚡ Performance About a tenth of the dashboard's main-thread time while live

🔄 No more F5

Every open page now catches up by itself.

  • Changes travel: edit something in another window, in the dock or through the API and the rest follow.
  • Your apps are noticed: open or close OBS or Streamlabs and the page knows within about 4 seconds.
  • Overlay files too: add or delete one in the folder by hand and it shows up without reloading.

🌍 InstantClone en español

The dashboard, the OBS dock, the sign-in page and the app's messages are now in English and Spanish. Pick one on first launch or in System → General, and changing it keeps you on the tab you were on.

  • Barely bigger: the app went from 3.55 to 3.70 MB, Spanish included.
  • Your names are yours: anything you typed stays exactly as you typed it.
  • See a wrong translation? Please tell me, even if it's a single word.

Note

The Logs tab, Windows' own dialogs and the tray stay in English, and so do default alert texts until you edit them.


🧭 A clearer first run

  • A short welcome asks for your language and three quick choices before setup starts.
  • Next waits for your streaming app. Setup holds until OBS or Streamlabs is connected. The progress bar goes back freely, and forward only over steps you've finished.
  • No OBS or Streamlabs yet? Setup says what to do next.
  • Opened InstantClone twice? It offers the copy already running first. Starting a second one takes a second yes.

🧩 Integrations and overlays

  • Values where you need them: suggestions appear under the field you're editing, with a searchable menu for the rest (or just type {). Same in the simple editor and the step builder.
  • A catalog with search, an icon menu and uniform tiles with full descriptions.
  • A two-column simple editor: preview on the left, settings on the right, and one Before it can run box that tells you what's missing.
  • Twin cards tell themselves apart, and warnings sit under the card's name.
  • The overlay preview zooms in on what the overlay actually draws.
  • Profiles are edited in place, without leaving the list.

⚡ A much lighter dashboard

With a stream live, the dashboard went from 208 to 25 ms of main-thread time per second on my test. The Stats tab was animating its numbers every frame even while hidden, and the pulsing dots cost more than they should. Both fixed.


🛠 Smaller things and fixes

  • One set of words across the app: sending and destinations, Test destination, your streaming app. The main button shows one word per action: Arm, Activate, Cut, Re-arm, Adjust, Cancel.
  • More room to breathe across setup and the main tabs.
  • Live cuts only move forward, so a cut can't replay a moment.
  • The upload warning takes your keyframe interval into account, and long keyframe intervals get a note about what they do to the delay.
  • The Enhanced Broadcasting warning only shows for OBS.
  • The memory reading now matches Task Manager's memory column.
  • A stream key typed during setup no longer stays behind in the browser.

Tip

On OBS 33? I streamed through OBS 33.0.1 with a single track, with Enhanced Broadcasting, and with the VOD script attached. Nothing to change on your side.

The full list is in the changelog.


⬆️ Updating

Same as always: the update prompt picks it up, and your settings, destinations, integrations and overlays come along. Nothing to redo.


❤️ Thanks

A lot of this release started with someone telling me "this part is confusing". Those messages are the most useful thing I get, so to every streamer and esports player who runs InstantClone, reports a bug or asks for something: thank you. Keep them coming on GitHub or Discussions.
