The installer version is now shown in the window title (#62)

Fixes

Fix using an already installed OptiFine version not working correctly for MultiMC instances (#107)

0.9.2 - 2020-08-09

Fixes

Fix error building setting for null value when changing settings in certain orders. This fix reverts a change in 0.5.6 intended to allow installing unreleased Minecraft versions using a custom JSON file.

0.9.1 - 2020-06-07

Changed

Already installed OptiFine versions installed in the Official Launcher can be used again, without requiring an OptiFine installer jar.
Improved the GUI spacing and layout.
Improved the OptiFine download link using JHyperlink from the SwingSet3 demo.

Fixed

Persisting the Google Analytics client ID when installing for MultiMC

0.9.0 - 2020-05-08

Added

Added full support for MultiMC installation. The MultiMC mode now creates an instance just like the Vanilla mode creates a profile.
Added a "Save As" dialog to the Forge installation mode and a matching CLI argument --destination. This replaces the previous "Install" button, but only for Forge mode.

Changed

Reworked the way OptiFine is supported. Instead of searching for an installed OptiFine instance, the user provides us with an OptiFine installer jar.
--minecraft-directory's aliases changed; --launcher-dir and --launcher-directory were added and --mc-path was removed.
In "Show Vanilla JSON" mode the "Install" button now says "Show JSON" instead.

Removed

Minecraft Directory setting from the GUI. It is still present as a CLI option.

0.8.6 - 2020-04-24

Added

Added a sketchy compatibility mode for Forge + Liteloader for 1.12.2 only

0.8.5 - 2020-03-25

Added

Even more workarounds for peoples broken network stacks!

0.8.4 - 2020-02-24

Added

The ability to override CLI argument defaults from a properties file in the jar. This means the Donator Installer can be generated dynamically by the website.
A fallback from unauthenticated HTTPS to HTTPS. I do not understand why, but it made it work for someone.

0.8.3 - 2020-02-21

Fixed

Fixed HTTPS failure on installer launch. GPG is still verified.
Fixed 1.14.4 not having launchwrapper-of hack applied

0.8.2 - 2020-02-13

Changed

Changed the OptiFine blacklist to above 1.15.2, and added the launchwrapper-of hack from 1.14.4 to 1.15.2.

0.8.1 - 2020-02-13

Changed

Preemptively removed OptiFine from 1.15.2 (we can't be compatible with something that isn't released yet)

0.8.0 - 2020-01-22

Added

Added support for MultiMC json

Changed

Changed InstallationModeOptions toString() to be prettier

0.7.5 - 2019-10-16

Fixed

Fixed duplication of files in Forge mode
Fixed useless log spam

0.7.4 - 2019-10-13

Fixed

Fixed a file that was relative to the default Minecraft directory, not the selected one

0.7.3 - 2019-10-11

Fixed

Fixed a small internal ordering bug

0.7.2 - 2019-10-06

Changed

Changed event processing relating to successful installs vs errors

0.7.1 - 2019-09-27

Fixed

Fixed a windows only crash caused by some weird manipulation of paths that ended up containing a colon

0.7.0 - 2019-09-27

Added

--help argument to print command line usage
--version argument to print the installer version
Analytics, and an option --no-analytics to disable them

Fixed

Fixed launcher profile name with new nightly format (nighty-DATE-1.12.2 now becomes Impact nightly for 1.12.2 instead of Impact nightly-DATE for 1.12.2), which matches how it used to behave in the old format (which became Impact 4.8-nightly for 1.12.2). This is so that each day's new nightly doesn't spam your launcher with a new profile each time.
Fixed Forge installs going into .minecraft/mods instead of .minecraft/mods/[version] (#71)

0.6.0 - 2019-08-17

Fixed

Don't completely overwrite Impact's META-INF/MANIFEST.MF when building a Forge jar

0.5.6 - 2019-08-17

Fixed

Fixed installing unreleased Minecraft versions from a JSON file
Fixed OptiFine compatibility for 1.14.4

0.5.5 - 2019-07-29

Fixed

Fixed pagination on GitHub releases API response

Changed

Changed the primary GitHub releases URL to here (http is safe because gpg). Cloudflare proxy is 4 to 7 times faster (because cached) than GitHub's actual API. Fallback to GitHub's API (as previously) if this fails for any reason.

Removed

Removed the option to select a baritone version, as no version of Impact uses it anymore

0.5.4 - 2019-07-23

Fixed

Fixed failure to launch when self-installed in a Forge jar

0.5.3 - 2019-07-16

Changed

The version profile added to the launcher no longer has the patch included in the name

0.5.1 - 2019-07-14

Changed

The EXE now uses Mojang's JRE if installed (on 64bit Windows) before falling back to "normally" installed JREs and JDKs.

0.5.0 - 2019-07-13

Added

Added command line options to specify OptiFine and minecraft directory
Added mode "Show JSON" that, uh, shows you the version json
Added warning to Forge when a previous version of Impact is detected in mods

0.4.0 - 2019-07-10

Added

Added a command line interface
Added the ability to install a local .json
Added a way to validate a release and all its dependencies without installing it

0.3.1 - 2019-07-10

Fixed

Fixed the installer not setting a required property in the launcher profile that made it impossible to delete

0.3.0 whats this - 2019-07-06

Changed

Have the message on successfully installing Forge tell you where the jar was placed
