What's included

New Features:

  • Open in Mod.io button - Activation tab right panel now shows a mod.io icon button for any subscribed mod that opens the mod's website on mod.io
  • Preset in-place save - The preset Save button now performs an in-place overwrite with automatic backup of the previous version when you add/remove mods from the current list. Button label switches contextually between "Save" and "Save As New".
  • Auto-search - Mod Browser and Collections search bars now trigger automatically after 3 characters are typed (600 ms debounce).
  • New per-field reset button in the Tweaking tab - The individual option reset button in the Tweaking tab resets only the one Option to its default value.
  • New feature to suppress the "!" update badge warning on mod.io mods that carry a version mismatch between the locally found version in the modinfo.json and the mod.io version number - right click the "!" badge and select the option to suppress the update warning. The mod is then added to a whitelist you can review in the Settings tab and will no longer show the "!" badge after a reload of the modlist. Clear the whitelist with the "Clear suppressed" button in the Settings tab.

Improvements:

  • Exact mod.io navigation - Clicking the mod.io icon in a mod row now navigates the Mod Browser to that exact mod via its mod.io ID, rather than a name-based text search.
  • Increase visibility of the update warning badge in the Activation tab (!): Slightly increased size; gold background with black icon and larger hitbox.
  • Post-install version re-check - After installing an update via the "!" badge or reinstall button, the mod.io version check reruns after 5 seconds to automatically remove the badge if the update was successful.
  • Added all officially used filters on mod.io to the Mod Browser tab.

Bug Fixes:

  • Labels and Descriptions on the Tweaking tab's right panel now support longer texts (correct line break) and also update consistently after selecting a value.
  • Category alignment - Mods missing a category label no longer cause misalignment in the activation list rows.
  • Fixed Linux startup behavior and gamepath discovery

Installation

Download Anno117ModManager.exe below, place it anywhere and run it. No installation required.

For users, that experienced continued "First startup"/"Moved Documents Folder" behaviour, it might be necessary to delete the settings.json from the %appdata%/Roaming/Anno 117 Mod Manager folder and do one last "First startup".


Known limitations

  • Windows only for the packaged exe. Linux users can run from source - see the README. Linux users, please report back if the app is working natively on Linux as I couldn't test it.
  • Localisation might have issues with too long texts for certain windows/buttons. Readjust the window size to resolve and please report back for fixing. If you are a native speaker, please have a look at the language files and contribute wrong/incomplete localisation.
