Bumps version to 1.0.1.0 and aligns the user-facing changelog across
HellionChat.csproj, HellionChat.yaml, repo.json and docs/CHANGELOG.md.
Headline fix: off-screen window recovery (one-shot bounds check on
plugin load + manual reset button under Settings -> Window -> Frame).
Bundled housekeeping since v1.0.0: docs restructured into docs/, stale
ChatTwo/* paths cleaned up across configs, Pidgin 3.3.0 -> 3.5.1,
actions/setup-dotnet 4 -> 5, github/codeql-action 3 -> 4.
DLL build verified locally; release.yml workflow generates the release
body from HellionChat.yaml on tag push.
Adds a "Default tab layout sharpened" block between the Safety and
Crash-class sections in both yaml and repo.json. Explains the new
five-tab structure, calls out that the reset is one-time, that all
non-tab settings are preserved, and that the live config is backed
up to pluginConfigs/HellionChat.json.pre-v13-backup before the wipe
so users can restore manually.
The actual code change shipped in the previous commit; this commit
is purely the user-facing communication so the in-game migration
notification has matching written context.
The original v1.0.0 changelog only documented the rebrand. After the
CodeRabbit pass added 9 follow-up fix commits (3 critical bugs plus
21 major findings, grouped into safety / crash-class / correctness /
threading / resource / performance categories), the changelog needs
to reflect what users are actually receiving.
yaml + repo.json synchronized.
AssemblyVersion and TestingAssemblyVersion bumped to 1.0.0.0,
DownloadLinks (Install/Update/Testing) all point to
releases/download/v1.0.0/latest.zip, Changelog block mirrors
HellionChat.yaml.
README, repo.json and HellionChat.yaml describe the plugin as a
chat-replacement based on Chat 2 rather than as a Chat-2 fork. License
attribution (NOTICE.md, COPYRIGHT, THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md, README
credits section) is left untouched per EUPL-1.2 obligations.
Architecture section in README updated to reflect that the
HellionChat namespace is now consolidated (post-v1.0.0).
The pointer-arithmetic CodeQL alert kept re-firing on each shape of
the previous shallow fix because Encoding.GetBytes is virtual and
every length value derived from its return inherited the taint.
Refactor the routine to thread int offsets through index-based
control flow and only compute pointers inside two small helpers
(CalcWordWrap and DrawText) that take an already-pinned base pointer
plus offsets sourced from local logic, not from any virtual return.
Buffer is now allocated against Encoding.UTF8.GetMaxByteCount via
ArrayPool with a real 16 KiB upper bound, and the encoded length
returned by GetBytes is validated against that ceiling before
anything touches the pointer. Behaviour is byte-identical to v0.5.3,
verified locally with the same input shapes the previous code path
handled.
Slim changelog: trimmed the per-version blocks down to v0.5.1-v0.5.4
plus a link to GitHub releases for older history. The previous block
ran ~9000 characters and was dragging the manifest payload down for
no benefit; users see the latest release block first anyway.
Single-fix patch to close the CodeQL pointer-arithmetic alert that
v0.5.2 left open. v0.5.2 already shipped, so we tag forward instead
of moving the published tag.
Settings UX polish release. Twelve organic settings tabs collapsed
into eight themed ones, theme/font controls moved to Appearance,
About and Changelog merged into Information. Configuration migrates
from v9 to v10 as a wipe with a backup file written next to the live
config; chat history and tabs survive.
Quick patch release. The previous commit on this branch is a
straight cherry-pick of Infi's upstream "Fix a regression from
API 15 updates" (ff899ff), which restores BetterTTV emote
deserialisation by switching the Emote and Top100 DTOs from
public fields to public properties so System.Text.Json picks up
the [JsonPropertyName] attributes correctly.
Without this, a fresh Hellion Chat install would happily fetch
emote JSON from BetterTTV but every entry would deserialise to
empty defaults, leaving the cache silently empty.
Manifest version bumps from 0.3.0 to 0.3.1 in csproj, the
HellionChat.yaml manifest plus its changelog, the custom-repo
repo.json (assembly version, testing assembly version and the
three download links), and the README version banner. The 0.3.0
changelog entry stays underneath in chronological order.
Build (Release) verified clean.
Phase 2 of the audit follow-ups, the Hellion Online Media brand
sweep and the rename of the slash commands all land in one release.
The slash command rename is breaking for users who had macros bound
to /chat2, /chat2Viewer or /clearlog2, which is the main reason
this is a 0.3.0 rather than a 0.2.1.
csproj, plugin manifest yaml, custom-repo repo.json (assembly
version, testing assembly version and the three download links)
and the README version banner are all moved over together so the
Dalamud plugin list, the manifest and the install instructions
agree. The README project status checklist is updated to reflect
that Phase 2 is closed; Phase 3 holds the remaining backlog
(MySQL backend, encryption, libnotify, etc).
The yaml and repo.json changelogs gain a 0.3.0 block that walks
through the four substantial groups of changes (slash command
rename, audit hardening, brand sweep, About tab) in plain prose.
The 0.2.0 block stays underneath in chronological order.
Build (Release) verified — ChatTwo/bin/Release/HellionChat/latest.zip
(~17.5 MB) and HellionChat.json regenerate cleanly with no warnings.
The tag itself is created by hand alongside the GitHub release.
The About tab copy was hand-written in English directly in About.cs,
which left the German users on the upstream Chat 2 wording for the
Hellion-specific blocks. The copy itself also leaned on em-dashes
mid-sentence and on a tone that could read as accusing Chat 2 of
GDPR violations, which was never the intent. This commit moves the
six About-tab sections (Maintainer, Why this fork exists, Built on
Chat 2, License, FFXIV disclaimer, Localization) into HellionStrings
and tightens the wording in both languages.
Tone change is the substantive part. Chat 2's full-history default
is now described as "the right one for most users" rather than a
problem the fork is fixing, and the webinterface removal is framed
as a focus mismatch — Chat 2's webinterface targets remote chat
access from a second device, this fork targets a smaller default
footprint, neither approach is wrong. The personal trigger for the
fork (two million logged messages over two years, mostly /say and
/yell from strangers) stays as it is honest context rather than
criticism.
The same neutralised wording is mirrored in three more places that
described the webinterface removal: the README "Was gegenüber
Chat 2 fehlt" block, the HellionChat.yaml description and changelog,
and the matching repo.json fields. The 0.2.0 changelog no longer
recites the upstream auth-flow internals; "different use case,
substantial rebuild, removed" is enough for users.
Em-dashes were also removed from two body strings that previously
used them as comma replacements (Privacy filter storage-only help
and the retention default description). Heading-level dashes
("Hellion Chat — Welcome", "Export (GDPR Art. 15 — right of
access)") stay because dashes are appropriate as separators in
titles.
The Theme description was already inaccurate — it still talked
about slate-violet tabs and amber highlights even though the brand
sweep moved everything onto Arctic Cyan plus Ember Orange. Updated
to describe the current palette honestly.
Project version goes from 0.1.2 to 0.2.0 — a minor bump rather than a
patch because the webinterface removal is a behavioural change for
anyone who relied on it. csproj, plugin manifest yaml and the
custom-repo repo.json are all moved over together so the Dalamud
plugin list, the manifest and the download links agree.
The yaml description picks up a leading paragraph that names the
removal up front; pre-installation users see it in the Dalamud
plugin browser. Both yaml and repo.json gain a 0.2.0 changelog block
that explains the audit context, lists every concrete code change
and reassures that the privacy filter, retention sweep, first-run
wizard and exporter are untouched. Older changelog entries are
preserved in chronological order behind it.
repo.json AssemblyVersion and TestingAssemblyVersion go to 0.2.0.0
and the three download links point at v0.2.0/latest.zip; the tag
itself is created by hand alongside the GitHub release.
Build (Release) produces ChatTwo/bin/Release/HellionChat/latest.zip
(~17 MB) and HellionChat.json with no warnings.
Manifest moves to 0.1.2.0 so existing testers get an in-place
update offer once the matching GitHub release is published.
Changes since 0.1.1 are surface and packaging:
- The inherited About tab now reflects the fork: Hellion Online
Media as maintainer with hellion-media.de as the contact
channel, EUPL-1.2 dual-copyright statement, FINAL FANTASY XIV
SQUARE ENIX disclaimer, explicit acknowledgment of Chat 2 by
Infi & Anna as the upstream foundation, and the original
ChatTwo translator list relabelled as upstream Crowdin
contributors so it isn't mistaken for Hellion translators.
- Cherry-picked the upstream DBViewer UI improvements
(auto-scroll-reset on page change, localized tooltips on the
date reset, folder export, export-running notifications and
the pagination arrows).
- README rewritten in the Hellion project style: German prose,
tech-stack table, architecture tree, database column list, a
proper migration guide for users coming from Chat 2 (with
Linux and Windows manual recovery commands), upstream-sync
workflow notes for cherry-picks, project-status checklist
separating bootstrap-done from phase-2-open work, and the
Hellion Online Media footer.
- repo.json regenerated to point at the v0.1.2 GitHub release
asset URL.
Bundle changelog summarises the same so testers see the new
content in their plugin list before they pull the update.
Manifest version moves to 0.1.1.0 so Dalamud offers existing
testers an in-place update once the new release is published.
Description rewritten to lead with the "built on top of Chat 2"
framing — every upstream feature, command and shortcut still
works identically — and to position the privacy additions as
alignment with modern EU, US and Japanese data-protection
expectations rather than citing specific paragraphs.
Punchline becomes "Chat 2 with privacy controls aligned to EU,
US and JP rules" so the plugin-list one-liner reflects what's
actually different rather than just calling itself a fork.
Changelog entry for 0.1.1 covers the three changes since 0.1.0:
icon now in the bundle (DalamudPackager override), icon resized
to 256×256, migration hardened with per-file try/catch and a
warning notification when files are locked, plus the README
troubleshooting section.
repo.json regenerated to 0.1.1.0 with the v0.1.1 release asset
URL so the custom-repo manifest matches what GitHub will serve.
Add repo.json at the repo root so testers can drop the raw URL
into Dalamud's Custom Plugin Repositories list and pick Hellion
Chat up like any other Dalamud plugin. The file is generated from
the in-assembly HellionChat.json plus the extra fields a Dalamud
custom-repo entry needs:
- DownloadLinkInstall / Update / Testing point at the GitHub
release asset for v0.1.0 (latest.zip), so refreshing the
plugin list pulls the released ZIP rather than building from
source.
- IconUrl points at the raw icon.png in the repository so the
plugin list can render the Hellion logo even before the user
installs the plugin.
- CategoryTags, IsHide and IsTestingExclusive use sane defaults
for a single-track release.
README gains an Install section with the exact custom-repo URL,
the steps to add it in Dalamud and a note about disabling
upstream Chat 2 first so the layout migration runs clean.
