This is a huge release with its main feature being a HUGE change in the seed finding procedure and how to perform it. With the help of @Thurler and @Dabomstew it was made possible to skip setting the clock entirely as well as remove ANY wait time that would happen on the first pass. Because of these optimizations, precalculation also drastically changed. The files is now the same for EVERY usage of the program and it is now REQUIRED. The files takes a long time to generate, but for convenience, they will be available to download in releases from now on. To start the seed finder, extract the file corresponding to your game in the program's directory after you downloaded it. Here are the sha256 checksums in case you want to confirm their integrity:

Additionally, new features and bugfixes are also included in this release. Here is the changelog:

  • Fix a bug with the end page where it would jump in height at the end of the seed finder wizard.
  • (me and @Thurler ): Redo the entirety of the precalculation process to be able to skip setting the clock and the wait time on the first pass. The README and the instructions in the wizard were changed to reflect this new process. Old precalculation files are now useless so it is recommended to delete them. Old settings files are still compatible.
  • Add the option to generate the precalculation file. This is to ensure that users will be able to generate the files without access to Github, however the process is very long and may take a few hours depending on the CPU used. For this reason, it is highly recommended to download the files instead.
  • Fix some typos in the GUI.
  • Switch the order of the starters tabs in the settings window for Pokemon Colosseum. This is only a graphical change, it does not affect the settings.
  • Allow to move on to the next pass by pressing enter on the seed finder wizard.
  • Add a reroll count in the main window that keeps track of how many times the user has pressed the reroll button.
  • Add the ability to limit the amount of threads the program will use. This is essential if the user plans to runs other critical CPU intensive applications such as a live streaming software.
  • Add a frame delay setting that will offset every frame number in the predictor by a certain amount. This can be useful to compensate the variable input lag across televisions.
