v2.0.0: Now with more GUI!
This update has been years in the making, and now BlueMap GUI finally resembles my original vision for it! 🥳
This has resulted in the biggest update I have ever made to my biggest application to date.
Changes
Highlights
- Added a Simple Config Editor GUI as the new primary way to use and configure BlueMap GUI.
- All relevant configs now have buttons, sliders, and text fields for changing their important options.
- Maps can now be reordered by dragging them in the sidebar.
- The textual config editor is now hidden behind an "advanced" toggle.
- From this Advanced Editor, you can change options that aren't displayed in the Simple GUI.
- In cases of problems with config files, the Advanced Editor can be opened to fix the issues there.
- The Advanced Editor can now highlight specific errors in files and display information about them.
- Supports opening configs generated in BlueMap GUI 1.0.
- Missing or changed options should be added using the Advanced Editor before they're configurable in the Simple Config Editor.
- Redesigned the UI in many places to make it clearer what is possible, especially which parts of the sidebars are clickable and which parts aren't.
- Created a website for BlueMap GUI.
- Contains descriptions, screenshots, download links, and the usage guide.

- Cave rendering is now enabled by default for all new maps. You can turn this off in the settings, or per map.
- Console text is now selectable (not perfect yet, but better than nothing).
- If the startup config is invalid when the Start button is clicked, the error is logged to the Control Panel's console.
- Display the update button everywhere, instead of only when you're in a project.
- Improved the animation of the Open button and added a glow to it, to make it catch the eye even more.
- Sort Map Config Templates in the New Map Dialog.
- Renamed "Bundled" Java mode to "Managed" Java mode, because it technically never did bundle it.

- Improved wording of the usage guide.

v1.3.1: Hotfix for a log that could cause confusion

This has now been fixed: the "Loading..." message always appears, and there is now a "Loading done!" message right after it.
