With the new version of Visual Studio bringing C# 12, we can revise our logic for better readability as well as use new methods/APIs introduced in the .NET 8.0 BCL.
EncounterEgg now indicates FixedBall(Poke) for Gen2-5
EncounterSlot2 now indicates Form Random for Gen2 Unown, database
EncounterStatic3 now generates FRLG Gen2 Roamers with correct location
EncounterCriteria now used more heavily for requested IVs
EncounterPossible3 now correctly skips Eggs if eggs are not requested
EncounterGift3Colo now generates Japanese Bonus disk gifts only in Japanese, doesn't validate non-Japanese
Updates from net46->net7, dropping support for mono in favor of using the latest runtime (along with the performance/API improvements). Releases will be posted as 64bit only for now.
Refactors a good amount of internal API methods to be more performant and more customizable for future updates & fixes.
Adds functionality for Batch Editor commands to `>`, `<` and <=/>=
TID/SID properties renamed to TID16/SID16 for clarity; other properties exposed for Gen7 / display variants.
Main window has a new layout to account for DPI scaling (8 point grid)
Fixed: Tatsugiri and Paldean Tauros now output Showdown form names as Showdown expects
Changed: Gen9 species now interact based on the confirmed National Dex IDs (closes#3724)
Fixed: Pokedex set all no longer clears species with unavailable non-base forms (closes#3720)
Changed: Hyper Training suggestions now apply for level 50 in SV. (closes#3714)
Fixed: B2/W2 hatched egg met locations exclusive to specific versions are now explicitly checked (closes#3691)
Added: Properties for ribbon/mark count (closes#3659)
Fixed: Traded SV eggs are now checked correctly (closes#3692)
First 5 blocks are reserved for file accessing info, but we should include them when checking length
Closes#3468
Capture the bool indicating Japanese for the save file, so box names are now read correctly (if changed from game's default).
Existing `get`/`set` logic is flawed in that it doesn't work on Big Endian operating systems, and it allocates heap objects when it doesn't need to.
`System.Buffers.Binary.BinaryPrimitives` in the `System.Memory` NuGet package provides both Little Endian and Big Endian methods to read and write data; all the `get`/`set` operations have been reworked to use this new API. This removes the need for PKHeX's manual `BigEndian` class, as all functions are already covered by the BinaryPrimitives API.
The `StringConverter` has now been rewritten to accept a Span to read from & write to, no longer requiring a temporary StringBuilder.
Other Fixes included:
- The Super Training UI for Gen6 has been reworked according to the latest block structure additions.
- Cloning a Stadium2 Save File now works correctly (opening from the Folder browser list).
- Checksum & Sanity properties removed from parent PKM class, and is now implemented via interface.
Retain a stringbuilder to mutate the string rather than finalizing temporary strings
yields some speed improvements (less gen0 string objects allocated)
GCI, DSV, DUC are already supported, so I've written the abstraction for those and seed the Handler list on startup.
Can add a new class with recognition via SaveUtil.Handlers.Add(myHandler);
Remove some unnecessary properties from SaveFile
Enumerate checksum flag results for GC memcard checking
Remove unnecessary checks on savefile type
Add some documentation
Decapitalize some method parameters
be explicit that the string is empty rather than possibly missing
disallow encrypted export for BK4 (they're not encrypted), removes type
check
simplify replaceall in showdownset (don't call ReplaceAll 4x, just get
valid chars and rebuild)
simplify get ribbon sprite name (precompute ToLower and appended values
