StableJonKazama-Hellion released this
2026-05-19 15:30:01 +00:00 | 413 commits to main since this releasev1.5.3 — Localisation Wave + Bundled-Font Overhaul (2026-05-19)
Multi-language pass plus a long-standing first-frame HITCH lands
as a side effect of a font-stack rewrite.User-visible:
- 24 selectable UI languages (was 2). Catalan, Czech, Danish,
Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian,
Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norsk bokmål, Polish, Portuguese
(BR + PT), Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish,
Ukrainian, Simplified + Traditional Chinese. Sorted by endonym,
"None" pinned first. Non-native locales are AI-assisted and
flagged for native-speaker review via the Forge Discord. - Bundled Inter Light replaces Exo 2 (SIL OFL 1.1, 343 KB). The
Inter font ships Latin Extended-A/B, Greek polytonic and
Cyrillic Supplement coverage; NotoSansCjkRegular joins as a
third merge layer for Hangul and Simplified-Han glyphs the
FFXIV Japanese game font does not ship. - First-frame HITCH dropped from ~74 ms (v1.5.2 baseline that
held since v1.4.x) to a median of ~20 ms (5-reload sample
17.9-23.6 ms, Linux/Wine). The bundled-font path silently
fell back to the FFXIV Axis font for the entire v1.5.x series
because of an early-return in the draw loop. The fix that
routes RegularFont through draw also lands the defer-pattern
win the v1.5.1 cycle was reaching for. - ExtraGlyphRanges auto-activates on language change. Korean,
ChineseFull and the two new flags (LatinExtended, Greek) toggle
on without a manual visit to Fonts and Colours. - New WarningText under the language dropdown notes FFXIV's
chat input only fully supports EN/DE/FR/JA character sets.
Other languages render in HellionChat but may garble when
typed into in-game chat.
Under the hood:
- Three-layer font stack: Inter Light primary, FFXIV
JapaneseFont merge 1 for kana/kanji style, NotoSansCjkRegular
merge 2 for everything else CJK. - LanguageOverride enum gains ten locales plus three previously
commented out (Italian, Korean, Norwegian asnb). New
values append to the enum so existing config integers stay
stable across update. - Crowdin gap closed: four post-sync ChatTwo keys backfilled
into 13 legacy locales with per-key AI markers. - Plugin.LoadAsync runs a one-shot migration that ORs in the
matching ExtraGlyphRanges flag for users already on a
non-default language. Settings.Apply auto-activates on
change going forward. - Em-dash sweep across the EN source and 18 translations to the
house style. Russian and Ukrainian keep the typographic norm.
Migration v17 stays. UseHellionFont users transition from Exo 2
to Inter Light transparently on first reload.Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

v1.5.2
Stable2026-05-18 21:48:07 +00:00 | 416 commits to main since this releasev1.5.2 — First-Run Wizard Rework (2026-05-18)
UX patch. The first-run wizard becomes a four-step flow with a
new Roleplay privacy profile and a power-settings step that
surfaces previously-hidden defaults. Existing v1.5.1 users see
the new wizard once on first v1.5.2 boot.What changes user-visible:
- Wizard navigation: Welcome → Privacy profile → Power settings
→ Done. Forge-Bronze pagination dots, dedicated stage for the
power settings so they are no longer buried in Settings. - Fourth privacy profile "Roleplay": Privacy-First plus Say and
both emote types, with a 30-day window for Say and a 90-day
window for emotes. Shout, Yell and Novice Network stay out. - Privacy picker becomes a 2x2 grid. Casual stays the
recommended option with a ★ marker. - Power-settings step covers Load Previous Session, Filter
Include Previous Sessions, Auto-Tell-Tabs History Preload,
Compact Density, Prettier Timestamps and a built-in theme
picker. All six map to existing Configuration fields — no new
settings introduced. - Staged commit: the wizard only writes to Config on the Finish
step. Decide-later or X-close at any point leaves the existing
config untouched. - Inline test hint on the done step: "type /tell
into chat" surfaces the auto-tell-tab spawn mechanism. - Window starts at 720x480 (was 900x560) and can shrink to
600x400; Step 1 keeps the fox banner in a folded TreeNode so
the onboarding copy stays primary. - Existing users get the new wizard surfaced once on first boot
after the update via the new WizardLastShownVersion config
field. Future cycles bump the constant only when the wizard
itself changes shape.
Under the hood:
- WizardStateSmokeStep added to /xlperf alongside the FontManager
and ThemeSwitch self-tests. - Twelve new pure-helper xUnit Facts in the Build Suite cover
all four privacy profile sets and their retention overrides.
Migration v17 stays (no schema bump). The Configuration grows
one optional string field (WizardLastShownVersion) which
defaults to empty for legacy users.Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

v1.5.1
Stable2026-05-17 17:17:19 +00:00 | 427 commits to main since this releasev1.5.1 — FontAtlas Refactor and Hellion Forge Signature (2026-05-17)
Hybrid FontManager refactor plus an embedded provenance mark.
What changes under the hood:
- FontManager handle creation moves into the ctor inside a single
atlas.SuppressAutoRebuild() block. The font atlas now builds once
per plugin load instead of four to five times — less CPU and GPU
pressure in the first seconds after a reload, less atlas texture
memory churn. - Hybrid property model: Axis, AxisItalic and FontAwesome become
init-only handles. RegularFont and ItalicFont stay mutable because
the eight font settings still need to replace them at runtime —
that path is funnelled through RebuildDelegateFonts() now and
runs without a plugin reload. - FontAwesome reuses Dalamud's UiBuilder.IconFontFixedWidthHandle
instead of building its own atlas slot. One delegate-build step
less in the ctor. - BuildFontsAsync and BuildFonts are removed; the live mutation
path is RebuildDelegateFonts() now. - Two FontManager self-test steps registered with /xlperf: ctor
smoke (every handle non-null after Phase-1 resolve, no atlas
load-exception) and push smoke (Push() returns without throwing).
Honorific full-gradient port (originally the v1.5.1 main item) was
dropped: Honorific 3.2 exposes no IPC for the rendered gradient
frame, and an in-plugin port of the colour palette was declined.
The integration stays at the v1.4.7 glow-only shape.User-visible:
- Hellion Forge signature: a small fox-head ASCII silhouette is
emitted to /xllog on every plugin load, and a full fox banner
with "Hellion Forge" set inside the body is available as a
folded TreeNode in the First-Run Wizard and Settings ->
Information tab. Drawn by Julia Moon, embedded in the plugin DLL. - No settings changes, no migration. v17 stays.
Note on performance: the cross-plugin baseline target from v1.5.0
(matching Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger at ~7 ms HITCH) did
not land this cycle. HITCH stays around 80 ms because the cost is
in the UiBuilder first-frame render path, not in the atlas build
(which this cycle did reduce from 4-5 builds per load to 1). A
first-frame render investigation is reserved for a later cycle.Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

v1.5.0
Stable2026-05-17 09:45:34 +00:00 | 437 commits to main since this releasev1.5.0 — DI Foundation and Service Refactor (2026-05-17)
Major architecture cycle. The plugin bootstrap moves to a
generic-host DI container (Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting +
IServiceCollection) modelled on Lightless Sync. Service logging
moves from a static Plugin.LogProxy locator to typed
Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger via constructor injection,
bridged over Dalamud's IPluginLog by a custom DalamudLogger trio.What changes under the hood:
- 18 instance-class services migrate to ILogger via constructor
injection across four slices: data layer (MessageStore,
MessageManager, AutoTellTabsService), IPC and integrations
(HonorificService, IpcManager, TypingIpc, ExtraChat, the three
GameFunctions classes), UI window layer (ChatLogWindow,
DbViewer, Popout, three settings tabs), and root (Commands,
ThemeRegistry, PayloadHandler). - Plugin.LogProxy stays in place for the eight buckets ctor
injection cannot reach: static helpers (EmoteCache,
AutoTranslate, MemoryUtil, WrapperUtil), Dalamud-reflected
types (Configuration), the Message data class, and instance
classes that only log from static methods (FontManager, one
GameFunctions site). - Plugin.cs finishes at 1012 lines — virtually identical to the
pre-cycle 1013. The new Phase-1 host build and Plugin.X bridge
wiring trade out exactly the service and window allocations
that previously lived in LoadAsync. - Cross-plugin baseline confirms no performance penalty against
Chat 2: HellionChat first-frame HITCH 77 ms median, Chat 2
74 ms median. Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger sit around
7 ms by deferring their font-atlas build past Finished
loading — that pattern is the v1.5.1 follow-up.
User-visible:
- Slash-command insert fix: pasting a slash command into the
chat input (Friend List "/tell" action, plugin-driven inserts
from Artisan, AllaganTools etc.) now replaces the existing
input instead of concatenating. Cherry-picked from ChatTwo
upstream ee7768ac with namespace adaptation.
Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

v1.4.10
Stable2026-05-16 12:14:12 +00:00 | 453 commits to main since this releasev1.4.10 — Symbol-Picker and Tell-History Fix (2026-05-16)
Eleventh and final sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series.
Symbol picker for the chat input, a tell-history reload fix for
users with many active partners, and a closing cleanup sweep
before v1.5.0 picks up the DI-container adoption.- Symbol picker: a small smile-icon button left of the channel
indicator opens a popup with two tabs. The first lists all 161
FFXIV PUA glyphs (Dalamud's SeIconChar enum); the second
carries 97 server-verified BMP symbols (latin marks, currency,
the full Greek alphabet, geometric shapes, suits, notes) —
every one of them round-tripped through /echo and /say in a
four-round probe so the in-channel render matches what the
picker shows. Click drops the glyph at the caret, multi-insert
keeps the popup open, and a recent-used strip floats the last
sixteen picks across both tabs. Toggle in Settings → Chat →
Message behaviour, default on. - Pinned auto-tell tabs reload their full history again: a
hidden 500-row scan cap in PreloadHistory used to override the
user-configurable AutoTellTabsHistoryPreload setting, so
less-frequent pinned partners (rare /tell sessions in an
otherwise busy week) lost their backlog. The cap is removed;
the (Receiver, Date) index keeps SQL fast, the client-side
loop still respects your setting as the upper bound. - Slash-command teardown: /hellion, /hellionView,
/hellionDebugger (and #if DEBUG /hellionSeString) wrappers are
now cached as private fields. Plugin teardown detaches the
live registration instead of re-Register'ing with identical
args — closes a latent maintenance hazard from v1.4.9. - v1.4.x polish-sweep wraps up here. The ImGuiListClipper render
refactor that was on the v1.4.10 reserve list got dropped
after cross-platform smoke showed the scroll rubber-band is a
Wine / Linux render-pipeline quirk, not universal — Windows
users never saw it. It will get its own platform-targeted
spike in a later patch. Next major cycle is v1.5.0 with the
DI-container adoption (Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting +
ILogger) modelled on Lightless. - Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).

v1.4.9
Stable2026-05-15 11:35:48 +00:00 | 462 commits to main since this releasev1.4.9 — Plugin-Load Render Polish (2026-05-15)
Tenth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. First-frame
render cost drops from ~127 ms median to ~76 ms median,
comfortably under Dalamud's 100 ms HITCH warning threshold.- First-frame defer: six non-essential rendering sections inside
ChatLogWindow skip their first Draw and run one frame later
(bottom status bar, channel-name SeString chunks, window bounds
check, v0.6.1 hint banner, autocomplete, input-preview
calculation). User-visible delay is ~17 ms at 60 fps, hidden
inside the post-reload font-atlas build window. - Slash-command centralisation: /hellion, /hellionView,
/hellionSeString and /hellionDebugger are registered in
LoadAsync instead of inside the corresponding window
constructors. The plugin-manager Open and configuration buttons
hang on the same path. - Plugin-load profiling logs stay on at Information level
(MessageStore connect/migrate, FilterAllTabs, auto-translate
warmup) as a regression tripwire — a future load past 100 ms
will show up in /xllog without a Debug filter. - ChatTwo IPC compatibility layer: HellionChat now mirrors
ChatTwo's full IPC surface (GetChatInputState,
ChatInputStateChanged, Register, Unregister, Available,
Invoke) under the ChatTwo.* namespace in addition to our
existing HellionChat.* provider gates. Third-party
integrations that historically only subscribe to ChatTwo's
IPC — for example Artisan's and AllaganTools' context-menu
hooks — keep working without requiring a code change on their
side. Conflict detection prevents ChatTwo from loading in
parallel with HellionChat, so there is no slot-collision risk
at runtime. - Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).
Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).

v1.4.8
Stable2026-05-14 10:13:23 +00:00 | 471 commits to main since this releasev1.4.8 — Hook-Layer and Polish Quick-Wins (2026-05-14)
Ninth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. Hook-layer
cluster (DbViewer FTS5 full-text search, ad-block foundation
investigation) plus three polish quick-wins.- DbViewer full-text search: optional FTS5 index across the full
chat history. Built asynchronously on first load after the
update with a progress toast. The local page-filter remains
available as the default mode. Queries match as exact phrases
-- multi-word terms must appear together in order; advanced
users can opt into raw FTS5 MATCH syntax by wrapping their own
double-quotes. - Custom theme files now auto-reload when edited while the theme
is active -- no need to re-click the theme in the picker. - Retention sweep no longer blocks the framework thread, removing
the ~194ms mini-hitch per sweep. - Status bar renders correctly at Windows display scaling > 100%.
- Receive-suppressed-tells routing investigated this cycle and
postponed to v1.5.x: when other plugins suppress tells via
CheckMessageHandled, the FFXIV chat pipeline skips the
RaptureLogModule.AddMsgSourceEntry path so HellionChat's
ContentIdResolverHook does not fire and tell-partner
identification breaks. The fix belongs next to the planned
ad-block hook layer where the same patch surface comes up. - Internal: messages.Id is declared BLOB but stored as TEXT
(Microsoft.Data.Sqlite Guid binding). FTS bulk insert and
LoadByGuids match the TEXT storage form on both sides.
Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).

v1.4.7
Stable2026-05-13 09:07:52 +00:00 | 485 commits to main since this releasev1.4.7 — Backlog Cleanup and Mid-Features (2026-05-13)
Eighth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. First
user-visible feature bundle since v1.4.5 — pinned tell tabs that
survive relog, opt-in Honorific glow rendering, and a configurable
sidebar.- TempTell Pin: right-click a TempTell tab in the sidebar to pin
it. Pinned tabs survive relog, keep their conversation history
(loaded on demand from the message store), and stay bound to
the same /tell partner. Hard cap of 5 pinned tabs in a pool
separate from the 15-tab auto-tell pool — total ceiling is 20
tabs. New 'Pinned' section in the sidebar with its own divider
header - Honorific Glow outline now renders when the title carries a
Glow colour. Opt-in via Settings → Integrations → 'Render glow
outlines (Honorific)' (default off, dodges the per-frame
DrawList overhead on low-end hardware). Gradient (Color3 /
GradientColourSet / Wave / Pulse) is parsed but rendered
statically — a later cycle will port the full animation - Sidebar width is now configurable in Theme & Layout (range
44–160 px). Default stays icon-only; widen to fit section
headers like 'Active Tells (3)' without truncation - Settings Save no longer pops the chat input back to /tell with
a pinned partner — Configuration.UpdateFrom now preserves the
runtime CurrentChannel across the persistent-tab merge, and
TabSwitched deep-clones the seeded channel instead of sharing
the previous tab's UsedChannel - Util/ImGuiUtil.cs DrawArrows IconButton id now uses
(id + 1).ToString() instead of the operator-precedence quirk
id + 1.ToString() — generated IDs stay numerically stable - Internal: IPluginLogProxy indirection over Dalamud's IPluginLog
routes all ~91 Plugin.Log call sites through a testable proxy.
MessageStore.Migrate0 can now run in xUnit without loading
Dalamud.dll, closing the gap F12.1 left in v1.4.6 - Internal: TempTab counter switched from an Interlocked cached
field to a derived Tabs.Count(predicate) — pin-state transitions
are cold-path and don't need lock-free reads

v1.4.6
Stable2026-05-12 19:28:29 +00:00 | 500 commits to main since this releasev1.4.6 — Code Hygiene and Refactor (2026-05-12)
Maintenance patch. No user-visible behaviour changes; tightens the
development feedback loop, fixes two upstream-inherited bugs, and
prepares the code for the v1.4.7 backlog cleanup.- preflight.sh gains a csharpier reflow check and a markdownlint
pass so style drift and markdown violations are caught at the
pre-push gate - FontManager fallback catches the full set of atlas-toolkit
throws (IO, InvalidOperation, ArgumentException) — a corrupt
font config no longer takes down the whole atlas build - BrandingLinks and IntegrationLinks URLs validated on plugin
load — a typo in a future URL rotation now throws at startup - Cherry-picked from ChatTwo upstream f35b7d3: Chat.SetChannel
no longer leaks the native Utf8String when the linkshell check
rejects the channel - Cherry-picked from ChatTwo upstream f35b7d3: Tab.Clone now
deep-clones UsedChannel and TellTarget — PopOut and Temp tabs
no longer mutate each other's channel state - Active-tab underline scales with DPI and rounds to physical
pixels for crisp rendering above 100% scaling - IconButton width parameter no longer subtracts HUD-scaled
padding from a raw int (measured width passes through verbatim) - Internal: HellionStyle ChildBgAlpha extracted to a testable
helper; Plugin.SaveConfig clones only the temp tabs;
SettingsOverview caches the draw-list per frame;
Dalamud.Utility.Util surface routed through an IPlatformUtil
indirection (MessageStore IsWine probe is now testable in
isolation) - Built-in themes: Crystal Nocturne (sapphire and electric
magenta over obsidian, by CRYSTALLITE) replaces Moonlit Bloom.
Users with Moonlit Bloom selected fall back to Hellion Arctic
on first load

v1.4.5
Stable2026-05-12 13:32:45 +00:00 | 519 commits to main since this releasev1.4.5 — UX and Robustness (2026-05-12)
Sixth sub-patch of the v1.4.x polish-sweep series. Chat-log draw
failures surface as a notification, the first-run wizard has an
explicit "Later" option, the input history clears on plugin reload,
and the status bar version slot stops clipping in narrow windows.- Chat window draw errors now show a one-shot notification instead
of failing silently — stack trace stays in /xllog - First-run wizard: explicit "Later — keep defaults" button.
Closing the X no longer silently accepts the defaults; the wizard
reopens on the next plugin load if nothing was picked - InputHistoryService clears on plugin dispose so the previous
session's typed commands don't bleed into the next load - Status bar hides the version slot when the chat window is too
narrow to fit all five slots without overlap - Internal: explicit session-only Auto-Tell-Tab invariant in
Plugin.cs plus a pinning test in the Build-Suite - Internal: FontManager falls back to the system font if the
embedded Hellion font resource is missing — logs a Warning
