SWGL on Mac 0.0.2

SWGL on Mac 0.0.2

Smooth mouse-look, a steadier frame rate, a Settings window and automatic updates.

Coming from 0.0.1? Download this version once and drag it into Applications, replacing the old one. 0.0.1 can't update itself; from 0.0.2 on, updates come to you.

Smooth mouse-look

• Turning the camera with the mouse is now smooth: no more judder that came and went with ⌘-Tab or after a stutter. The app now reads your mouse directly and passes every movement to the game right away.
• New: Mouse-Look Speed in Settings. 1× turns as fast as SWG on Windows; your macOS pointer speed no longer applies. If mouse-look feels slower than in 0.0.1, raise it or the in-game sensitivity (in testing, about 1.75× matched 0.0.1).

Steadier frame rate

• After a hitch, the game no longer gets stuck at 30 fps for a second or two on 60 Hz displays.

Settings and updates

• SWGL on Mac → Settings… (⌘,) replaces the Features menu: Retina Mode, Metal HUD, Game Mode, Mouse-Look Speed, Debug Mode and updates in one window.
• Automatic updates: from this version on, SWGL on Mac checks for new versions once a day (never while you're playing) and installs them when you click Install. You can turn the check off in Settings, or use Check for Updates… in the SWGL on Mac menu.
• The About panel and alerts now look like a current macOS app.

Troubleshooting

• Collect Logs… in the SWGL on Mac menu saves a zip of the logs to your Desktop, with personal details left out, to send with a bug report.
• Debug Mode in Settings makes the logs much more detailed. Turn it on only when asked to.
