BurnOutSharp 2.3.1

This is a minor update to 2.3.0:

• Fix the nuspec generation that included submodules as Nuget dependencies

BurnOutSharp 2.3.0

This is a major update to the 2.0.* releases:

• Scanner use and internals changed, including flags
• Major overhauls to library usage
• Major additions and updates from @TheRogueArchivist
• Reorganization of namespaces
• New code support for entry point and overlay

BurnOutSharp 2.1.0

This is a minor update to the 2.0.* releases:

• Add AutoPlay Media Studio installer detection and update Setup Factory
• Move more things to PortableExecutable for better performance and stability
• Fix over-matching SafeLock check
• Upgrade to VS2022 solution and AppVeyor
• Convert library to .NET Standard 2.0
• Add .NET 6.0 as build target for test executable
• Update UnshieldSharp and WiseUnpacker to newest versions

BurnOutSharp 2.0.0

This is a major overhaul and a breaking change compared to the 1.x releases:

• Removal of known over-matching checks
• Locking of full file scans behind the debug flag
• Move to stream-based internals
• Many new checks and a few new protections and packers
• Increased accuracy and speed

For those using the test executable, you may notice some changes:

• New flags have been added to allow for more granular scanning of input files and folders
• Drag and drop functionality still works, but debug is not enabled by default anymore

BurnOutSharp 1.8.0

This is a major overhaul and breaking change compared to the 1.7.x releases:

• IncludePosition flag has been renamed to IncludeDebug for future expandability
• Added a few new protection and packer checks
• Removed EVORE helper class (which attempted to run some executables in very specific circumstances)
• Updated, fixed, and implemented PE and NE executable reading (only a few gaps missing)
• Converted the vast majority of content checks to use the new PE and NE reads instead
• Reduced the surface area of the majority of content checks - reduced possible false positives
• Validated as many checks as possible locally instead of relying purely on community feedback

For those using the test executable, you may notice some changes:

• Not all protections will show positions (or the position within the file may seem incorrect) when the IncludeDebug flag is set to true. This is because, where possible, checks have been reduced to more concrete locations and executable sections, therefore making the found position mostly obsolete
• If an uncaught exception occurs, more information will be printed out to the textfile. This was an oversight on my part originally.

BurnOutSharp 1.7.0

This is a major overhaul compared to the 1.6.x releases:

• Major improvements to some existing detections, especially packers
• Additions of a couple of packers
• Support for InstallShield V3 (Z) Archives
• Major bugfix and performance fix around scanning files of varying sizes in the same directory

This is a partially breaking release due to the addition of new parallel scanning

BurnOutSharp 1.6.1

This is a bugfix release that removes a bit of problematic code in Valve unpacking that could cause crashes for archives that overmatch.
