Hello fellow wargamers, I am delighted to announce the release of War Cabinet version 0.8.2! This releases adds the following new features: * New feature - SP:WaW Mega Campaign support It is now possible to track Mega Campaign savegames. Adding a Mega Campaign savegame to a new, empty, dossier will allow War Cabinet to track this file and the savegame will be automatically added to the dossier whenever it changes. Note: for this tracking to be effective, War Cabinet needs to be running in the background while playing the Mega Campaign. Note: due to the nature of Mega Campaign gameplay, War Cabinet does not allow battle and/or turn deletions from a Mega Campaign dossier. * New feature - read-only mode War Cabinet tracks the original savegame folder used with a dossier. When a dossier is loaded for which the original savegame folder can no longer be found, the dossier will be opened in read-only mode and it will not be possible to make any additions or deletions to it. This release adds the following improvements: * Improvement - simplified game configuration The game configuration in the preferences has been simplified. Only the game folder must be configured, it is no longer necessary to configure both the OOB and the savegames folders separately. * Improvement - improved game configuration The game configuration in the preferences has been improved. War Cabinet now supports up to four different game configurations, each consisting of a game type and a game folder. The configurations also have a name for easier reference in the New dossier dialog box. Previously, War Cabinet only supported a single game configuration for an SP:WaW game and a single game configuration for a winSPWW2 game. * Improvement - require dossier file overwrite confirmation If you use the same name as an existing dossier file while saving a dossier, you will be prompted to confirm overwriting the existing dossier. This release has the following fixes: * Fix - incorrect winSPWW2 battle losses reporting The campaign and battle losses recorded in the winSPWW2 savegame were incorrectly decoded. * Fix - fixed some crashes and memory corruptions/leaks This release is completely compatible with the previous 0.8.1 release, and you can keep using your existing campaign dossiers. The latest files can always be found here (on GitHub), screenshots can be found here (also on GitHub). Enjoy! Erik
