1.0.24

General

• The WIP editors are automatically hidden again (e.g. ESD and EMEVD Editors).

Param Editor

• Added complete Param META for DES, DS1 and DS1R.
• Added partial Param META for AC6 (will complete for next release).
• Added proper AC6 paramdef (credit to TKGP).
• Added quick toggles in the View dropdown menu for toggling various param editor settings.
• Added ability to see field description and min, max and increment when hovering over field name.
• Added ability to see min, max and increment in help icon hover text.
• Implemented IsPadding meta tag. This tags all fields that are considered padding. Added toggle to show/hide these fields.
• Implemented IsObsolete meta tag. This tags all fields that are considered obsolete (when noted in the paramdef). Added toggle to show/hide these fields.
• Implemented Separator meta tag, adds a imgui separator above the tagged field in the Smithbox UI.
• Added translated BB name lists (credit to ashenhunter021)
• Added support for 'developer' row names (currently BB and AC6 only), which are the raw japanese and machine-translated english row names. This means these names can be kept as an option, whilst allowing the community names to be improved.
• Added setting to change duplicate ID offset to values other than 1 in the Param Editor (useful for ItemLots mainly, so you can duplicate them without explicitly defining the 10 ID gap each time)
• Added option to export all modified params

• Added support for Deep Copy to the duplicate action. This allows the offset to be applied to specific 'tagged' fields within the duplicated row. For example, this makes it easier to duplicate a set of bullets, as the internal bullet IDs for each row will be updated as well.
• Added support for displaying 'community' names to the param list. Includes support for multiple param strings, so params that share a single param meta can all be covered.
• Added toggle for display 'community' names in the param list (default is off).
• Added support for param categories: these are groups of params under a collapsible header in the param list.

• Fixed issue with Text Search if a number greater than int was entered.
• Fixed the display of Blood Gem Effects fmg, removing it from the text entry group as it doesn't follow the Blood Gem ID format.

• Previously, LoadBinderResourcesAction.ProcessBinder would dispose of its BinderReader upon return in some cases, which is an error because that BinderReader could still be referenced by pending resource actions. This is fixed by using a ref counted wrapper around the reader and all values that potentially reference its Memory<byte> (credit to GoogleBen).
• Model Editor now correctly cleans up on project switch (credit to GoogleBen).
• Fixed a potential crash with Image Preview in Low Requirements mode.
