1.5 - Gehenna & Prototype

• Added logging. Log file is saved in the Old Version Location (by default, steamapps/common/The Talos Principle Old Versions/TalosDownpatcher.log)
• Added support for Gehenna and Prototype. These are incremental, and should not require you to redownload the base game.
• Added stability to the time change (it should work forever now, and changes back more slowly to avoid signature failure)
• Smoothed the progress bar while copying (and improved the copying speed)
• Updated to .Net Framework 4.7.2

You can submit bug reports on Github, through Discord, or on speedrun.com

• By default, only shows the 4 most commonly used versions
• Added progress bars for copying operations
• If you exit during copying, no version will be marked active on resume
• You can no longer change settings while versions are downloading / copying, to prevent race conditions
• Clicking on the gear while the settings window is open now closes the window (settings are not saved)
• Fixed a bug where talos would complain about a bad signature
• Fixed a bug where multiple versions could appear as active
• Fixed a bug where the application could crash if the folder was in use
