XIVDeck 0.3.14
Pre-releaseFor a release that should be dedicated to pi, XIVDeck has decided to lose some weight and become quite a bit leaner. Kinda need to do that if you want to start running on phones...
- XIVDeck now properly supports Stream Deck SDK version 6.1, which brings some minor code improvements.
- A bunch of performance improvements to keep XIVDeck feeling snappy.
- A minor optimization to hotbar monitoring means XIVDeck wastes less of each frame, every frame.
- Removed an unnecessary cache that just made on-login and other events take slightly longer.
- Update volume management to listen for events instead of checking every frame for volume changes.
- Update the German and French translations (thank you Alice and Khayle!).
- Adds some useful logging messages on plugin startup to help diagnose certain issues.
- Other miscellaneous fixes.
For those of you who are interested in XIVDeck (or otherwise bringing your hotbars out of the game), but don't want to buy a Stream Deck, I have some cool news. Elgato released a new version of Stream Deck Mobile for iOS, which now gives you six virtual buttons free, forever. Android is allegedly going to get this update soon. Possibly. I promise I was not paid to make this statement.
If you like this plugin, please consider starring the repository on GitHub. It's much appreciated, I promise! Also, if you speak one of German, French, or Japanese, please consider contributing translations to XIVDeck via Crowdin.
Testing Notes
Once again, the testing notes section makes a proud return! A few minor requests here:
- For those who use UI mods to replace icons, there's been some slight tweaks to how icons are retrieved. Please ensure your icons are loading properly!
- The hotbar system will now intelligently ignore empty hotbar slots. Please make sure XIVDeck actually recognizes a hotbar slot becoming empty, as well as a hotbar slot getting populated. As always, hotbar slots that aren't on screen but are still on the Deck should update accordingly.
- The volume system had a bit of a rewrite, and comes with two things to test:
- Pushing the dial on a Stream Deck + should toggle mute state on the selected channel, and should not quickly mute/unmute or do nothing.
- The volume system should still be relatively responsive and quickly update to volume changes, whether they're in-game or external.
- Volume changes at low frame rates might lag a bit, but shouldn't jump around erratically.
If you notice any issues, please come find me in the XIVDeck Help Thread in the Dalamud Discord!
