Changelog

v1.1.8

This is a minor change. No update is needed unless one of these features is desired.
- Add -URL option to NUS.cs.
- Updated embedded libWiiSharp to 2.0.2.
  - libWiiSharp has been reverted to .Net Framework 2.0.
  - No functional difference in Sharpii; TPL code now works again.
  - TPL code still does not run on Non-Windows platforms due to System.Drawing.Common's lack of support.
Developer Updates:
- WadInstaller source code has been removed. It is available online in many places if needed..
- Reduced compiler warnings to 0 at time of writing.
  - SecondRun unused variable has been removed resulting in one less compiler warning..
  - A Value for SelfContained has been set in the project file resulting in one less compiler warning..
- CodeQL was reworked to get compilation setup correctly.

v1.1.7

All NUS HTTP error codes are reported instead of just 404.
- Previously non 404 codes would be reported as an "Unknown" Error.
Updated embedded libWiiSharp to 2.0.1.
- Main Change: NUS failback urls were added.
- TPL code now works cross-platform using SkiaSharp binaries to run.
  - Required binaries aren't bundled, so TPL doesn't function by default.

v1.1.6.1

Updated compiled binaries to .Net v6.
- New Mac M1 Binary (MacOSX-arm64); previous Mac binary is now known as MacOSX-x64.
- ~66% size reduction uncompressed.

v1.1.6

Includes an updated version of the modified libWiiSharp.
- This fixes an infinite loop bug that very quickly led to either a Stack Overflow or full memory consumption.
  - This bug is present in the original libWiiSharp as well. The fixed version can be found at the related repo.
Minor change to the credits header.

v1.1.5

The commands -q, -quiet, -lots now have limited support, acting the same as they did for the original Sharpii.
Additional 404 error pickup for non-existent ID's (Oversight in 1.1.4).
Updated all error codes.
Removed a Debugging check for libWiiSharp.dll that has no use anymore
Source code now complies with some standards better (No difference to end-users).
Source folders now slightly cleaner See 4c38cbb3 (No difference to end-users).

v1.1.4

Adds more error codes for easier error reporting.
Smaller unpacked executables by 10~15MB! (Don't ask me how, lol).

v1.1.3r2

Removes the word "Here" when using NUS, this was a mistake from using a debug version of libWiiSharp I was testing with in the Sharpii-NetCore release binary.

v1.1.3

Replaced libWiiSharp with a custom one (Added ability to use your own CETK file by placing it in the directory that the file would be placed in normally. This allows full integration with the RiiConnect24 patcher.)
Minor typo fixes.

v1.1.2

Fixes a bug in some systems where ICU is required but doesn't exist.
Adds a dialog box telling users they need to use a command line when the program is run in gui mode.

v1.1.1

Fixes exit codes for non-Windows platforms (Global fix).
Fixes a bug where Sharpii couldn't find a wad if the case of the wad's name when saved was different then the ID provided. (NUSD's -WAD option).

Due to a mistake, Sharpii shows as stil being v1.0.1.
Added many error handling related features.
- Error Code's for easy identification of errors.
- Error Code lookup (Run: Sharpii Errors [Error Code]).
- Custom exit codes for easy headless script error identification (Uses Exit codes 16001-16029).
- Exit Code lookup (Run: Sharpii ExitCodes [Exit Code]).
Removed install/uninstall help text (Feature still exists but only works on Windows for now.)
Removed some help text relating to a currently unimplemented feature.
