Updating an existing installation
Extract the entire ZIP, close Destiny 2, and run Update-Dawn.cmd.
Choose the game folder containing destiny2.exe.
The included Update-Dawn.ps1 preserves existing Dawn saves, inventory, identity, settings, and custom files while updating the DLL and packaged content. It creates a full backup and supports preview (-WhatIf) and rollback (-Restore). Older Dawn databases upgrade automatically on first launch.
Install-Dawn.cmd starts a fresh save. Use it only when you want a fresh installation or reset.
Requirements and checks
Requires Destiny 2 build 86657.20.08.23.1800.d2_rc and Windows PowerShell 5.1 or newer. The game is not included.
The release uses the DLL confirmed working in game. Installer and updater checks passed on PowerShell 5.1 and 7, including an upgrade from 0.1.2, preservation of an older save, database migration, and rollback. Read READ-ME.txt for details.
Download
Download Dawn-0.1.3.zip under Assets, extract the entire archive, and run the updater to keep your save. GitHub's automatic source-code archives do not include the installer payload.
