DLL Changes to be applied in next release

[drojf]

Below is a list of branches/issues to be added in next release, if possible. May want to do a test release first to the translators/easter egg requester to see if anything is broken.

Branches to include

Localization / Features for Translators

• [READY] Add Mod Menu Localization #112
  • https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-mod-menu-translation
  • Allow mod menu text to be set by translation
  • Also see Load tips title text and other strings from JSON file instead of being hardcoded #79 which should actually be closed by now?

Save Fixes

• [TODO] https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-save-fixes
  • Tell user or handle too many saves stopping Steam cloud save working #111
• [TODO] Note: there is also some work here to be ported to f-save-fixes. Just the part to fix console arcs saves syncing under steam cloud, or fixing it some other way. The other parts I've decided are pointless due to my changes in f-save-fixes above. https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-fix-console-cloudsave (need to port to mod)
  • This could potentially break things, but in my previous testing it seemed to work OK.
  • This makes the game save to a different location to the unmodded game, avoiding the issue with loading unmodded saves on the modded game
  • This also makes console arcs save to a different location to regular ch4. again avoid save conflict issues
• [TODO] Need to add a steam.json file for every chapter so the steam cloud usage indicator works properly!
• [TODO] Steam Detection and Steam Integration Fixes #114
• [NEED TEST?] https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-save-fixes-autosave - Implements Autosave feature

Misc Fixes

• [READY] Fix 'return to main menu', 'quit', and 'load' not working in choices #113
  • https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-fix-leave-choice
  • fairly safe changes to fix softlocks when leaving the choice menu. See Exiting to main menu while in a choice freezes (softlocks) the game #106
• [READY] Fix NGUI based buttons when using touchscreen #110
  • https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-fix-touchscreen - fix touchscreen input (currently can't press some buttons with touchscreen)
• [READY] Fix GUI and Toast Scaling #115
  • https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-gui-toast-fixes - fixes some scaling issues with mod menu GUI and Toast word wrapping
• [READY] Fix black backgrounds if bgs toggled after startup #116
  • https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/compare/f-fix-corrupt-graphics
  • See: Changing graphics preset during 07th-mod logo screen (before reaching main menu) causes strange graphical bugs #104

To be merged later

• [Need Test?] Fix various volume issues #117
  • https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-fix-volume-glitch - fix possible volume glitching and audio sliders not working correctly the first time you boot the game

Branches to ignore

• https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/tree/f-main-menu-easter-egg
  • very optional change, but shouldn't break anything. Need to get the easter egg script done first, though. See Possible implementation of the secret Question Arc Skit #107
  • While the DLL stuff for this is ready (and I did some brief testing earlier), I think the actual easter egg script is not ready, so I don't think we should add it into the DLL at this time.
