I'm working on implementing my own patcher so that Steam stops trying to update Decent Icons 2 while it's running so this issue doesn't happen.

Fixed:
- Steam tracking achievement progress should work more consistently now
- Icons cut off on the right-hand side

Steam Friends List "In-App: Decent Icons 2" spam change:

Hi guys, I hear you about the annoyance and have come up with a new solution to this issue with this update. There is now an achievement to be gained by using the software for 2 hours, and after that it will only show you as "In-App: Decent Icons 2" briefly on start-up to check for Workshop Mod/Pack updates and downloads (It is not physically possible for me to disable this)

I hope you can understand this change and find it agreeable, but I am open to feedback on it.

Fixes:

• Most JavaScript errors related to "an object was destroyed" or "___ is null/undefined" are fixed
  
• Minor non-fatal JavaScript errors will now show a smaller pop-up.

More fixes and improvements are in the works and will be coming soon!
Thanks for your patience and understanding folks.

Okay since there are a lot of inconsistencies in different user's expriences with the new patch, i've reverted the main version, and created a public opt-in beta branch.

If anyone has issues with the app disappearing when you hit Show Desktop or WinKey+D, please try out the "testversion" branch and let me know if there if it's working.

Feel free to comment here or in the discord:

It's finally time to leave Early Access!

This patch includes many small fixes, images will now be downloaded and cached locally, and some improvements for Modding!


I'd like to highlight this very sleek looking UI overhaul mod by User 100Pseudo!
It has a very clean and modern look as well as a couple brand new features, so definitely check it out!

Also thanks 100Psuedo for some recommendations for how I could improve modding for users, here's some changes:

Modding changes:

*Previously changing a setting's name would not appear, now if you click "reset to default" it will show the new name/default setting.
*Clicking Refresh will now automatically re-select the mod you had selected.
*Pressing F5 will refresh the main dock window and mods.
*2 New Settings Types:
- string
- dropdown

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2931121962

Here is an example of how to implement the following settings types in your "settings.txt" file:

For strings, please set the "value" to the default option you want selected (case sensitive) and the value when retrieved in your mod settings will provide you with a string of the option selected.

I plan to add a file browser option, and any other options for modders, so please let me know if you have any ideas for other mod options that would help!

Hi everyone! This update features a major overhaul to the way the app handles user settings in just about every corner of the app. So feature wise it's a bit slim but it took a lot of work and testing.

It seems pretty good from testing but I will need your help identifying any bugs that could have been introduced as a part of the new settings rework!

Please discuss with us on the Discord Server:
https://discord.gg/TfhjzNw

Fixes:
-Reworked settings to prevent malformed user settings that can cause issues in rare cases.
This is a fundamental change and had introduced a lot of bugs that I have been fixing as I find them, so I need your help identifying any bugs that could be related to this system. I will be releasing hot fixes at an accelerated rate to get the program stable and ready for release.

- Fixed mod settings not updating user settings properly
- Images downloaded from steamgriddb.com by the images window should now cache locally.
- Localization updates with 100% of the app translated in all available languages

I will be adding some sorting features while working with everyone on squashing any bugs very actively, so please join the discord and help get Decent Icons to a clean release!

Thanks everyone for your patience and I hope this update provides more stability for users.

Several new features, major language localization improvements and fixes. See full patch notes here:
