⚠️ ⚠️ WARNING⚠️ ⚠️
- You MUST perform a KC3 backup from your current version BEFORE updating to this release if you want to keep your data.
- If you are using a very old version (0.2.3 or older) that cannot perform a data backup, you must delete the
resourcesfolder and update to a newer version such as 0.6.0 first so that you can backup your KC3 data. - This release changes the location of the Damecon configuration file and data folder.
- After installing this version, your Damecon settings will be reset.
Installing
- This version of Damecon now has a proper installer, which includes auto-update capability!
- Use
damecon-browser-*.Setup.exeto install.- The app will check for and download updates automatically when started.
- You can disable automatic updates in Damecon Settings if you wish.
- For now, the
.zipversion does not include the auto-update capability. You must install via the setup exe for this to work.
Additions
- You now have the ability to configure the location in which the Damecon
userdataandextensionsfolders are located.home: Your home folder (%USERPROFILE%\Dameconin windows, or~/Dameconin linux)appdata(default): System-specific Application Data folder (%APPDATA%\Dameconin Windows)appdir: Folder containing the Damecon app files (old behavior)custom: Allows you to manually specify a location for the data folders- If you are using the
.zipversion and extracted it over your existing Damecon folder as usual, then it will detect the existinguserdatafolder and default toappdirinstead ofappdata.
- Damecon's
config.jsonsettings file is now stored inappdirrather thanappdata/.config.- This lets you keep multiple copies of the zip version of Damecon in separate folders with different settings.
- The button for clearing the browser cache now also deletes
main.jsfrom the internal KCCacheProxy cache if KCCP is used.- This helps resolve "Error 100" issues caused by outdated cache files.
- Damecon will attempt to obscure data paths within logs and settings to allow for a safer experience for using it while streaming.
- May not be active everywhere yet.
- Not yet applied to the KCCacheProxy log.
