The first release, a beta: everything below is new, and so far only the owner has run it
against their own game.

Added

  • Turns the AltStable addon's portrait captures (the black and white screenshot pair
    /alts portrait takes) into transparent cutouts, and writes the AltStableCutouts
    addon folder the Roster scene draws from - by itself, within seconds of a /reload.
  • Runs in the tray. The window shows every portrait with a thumbnail, what each capture
    became, one headline with the next step, and a search box.
  • The first start asks before anything is converted, and says that the two screenshots a
    portrait was made from are deleted unless "Keep original capture screenshots" is on.
  • Settings: the game folder (detected, or chosen), automatic processing on or off, kept
    screenshots, and the window's look - the addon's Clear glass, Smoked glass or Flat.
  • --minimized, --wow-dir and --data-dir on the command line; a wrong one is an
    error, never a guess.
  • Enhanced portraits, off by default: with the Codex CLI installed and signed in on this
    PC, a better picture of each character of the chosen level or more, from its own portrait
    • in the look of the WoW cinematics, photorealistic, or as an animated feature. The one
      exception to "no network": the Settings page says exactly what is sent and when it
      spends. Needs an AltStable Roster that knows enhanced textures. A cancelled attempt (the
      box unticked, a quit) is tried once more; refused and failed ones are final.
  • What the enhancer is doing is visible: the tray tooltip and a dot on the tray icon while a
    picture is being made, a balloon when one is written or refused, a status line under the
    switch, "Enhancing" on the character's row, and the list ordered by latest activity.
  • A settings change never spends on its own: a picture made from the portrait a character
    still has is held when only the style, the model, the effort or the wording changed, and
    the Settings page says how many and offers to make them again - exactly those, and a quit
    mid-way does not take the offer back. A new capture is made on its own.
