PixelForge v1.0.2

Maintenance release — installer now has a stable filename (no version suffix) so download links never go stale.

PixelForge v1.0.1

PixelForge v1.0.1 focuses on reliability and adds a large round of new features.

Fixes

• Fixed first-run dependency setup failing with an HTTP 404. The upscayl engine and Caesium CLT are now pinned to specific, verified releases and integrity-checked (SHA-256) before use.

New

• Select individual images or multiple hand-picked files, not just whole folders, with drag-and-drop.
• Three pipeline modes: Upscale + Compress, Upscale only, and Compress only.
• Input queue for batching multiple folders and images in a single run.
• Before / after comparison gallery for results.
• Custom output naming templates.
• Recursive scanning with preserved folder structure.
• Live progress with elapsed time and ETA, plus pause, resume, and cancel.
• Light and dark themes with a customizable accent color.
• Desktop notifications when a batch completes.
• Built-in update checker that downloads new releases in-app.

Improvements

• Automatic priority for the dedicated GPU during upscaling.
• Redesigned interface using the Plus Jakarta Sans typeface.
• The installer now always creates a dedicated PixelForge folder and confirms the destination before installing.
• Internal refactor into a modular main process.
