  • A TLP without truebox has thawed (Very Vanilla ready)

redfetch 1.4.2

Download

Fixed​

  • The update button wouldn't launch MQ if eqbcs.exe was running.

Changed​

  • The update button once again doubles as a launch MQ button, even when no update occurs.

Added​

  • redfetch run and redfetch open CLI commands act as shortcuts, for example redfetch run eqgame will start EQgame.exe, redfetch open eqhost will open the eqhost.txt file, etc. These mirror the TUI shortcuts.

Changed​

  • You can now update while playing. Updates take effect the next time you start Very Vanilla MQ.

Added​

  • New logic for restarting VVMQ after an update. redfetch will never touch EQ nor unload MQ.

Removed​

  • The "Close MQ pre-update" setting and TUI toggle.

Added​

  • --server on update and download: use a different server for one run.
  • TUI: "Also start post-update" — launch EQBCS, MySEQ, or a custom program after a successful update. (#18)
  • Staff picks: Ninjadvloot.inc is now on LIVE/TEST/EMU.

Changed​

  • Config paths that contain eqgame.exe are allowed with a warning instead of being blocked outright. (#22)
  • TUI: "Close MQ pre-update" and "Start MQ post-update" are now No / Ask / Yes toggles, so you can pick the prompt-each-time ("Ask") behavior from the UI instead of only on/off.
  • Only settings you've actually changed are written to settings.local.toml, keeping the file tidy.

Fixed​

  • Licensed resources will now download even if you have duplicates. (#24)
  • Update checks notice when a resource's subfolder changes.
  • Fixed "RecursionError" on startup by rolling back a dependency.

Added​

  • Custom category directories: override where lua, macros, or plugins install via CATEGORY_PATHS in settings.local.toml.
  • Clearer messages for users on why certain resources are skipped or blocked.

Changed​

  • Rewrote the sync pipeline with separate discovery, planning, and execution stages.

Fixed​

  • Fixed a crash when starting the RG web interface.

Fixed​

  • Resources will re-download if you change their path.

Added​

  • Windows: optional Desktop shortcut, toggle it in the TUI settings.
  • Staff picks: Scriber, Bazaar/Auction Helper, and Skill Skillup are now on LIVE/TEST/EMU.

Fixed​

  • Staff picks: Buttonmaster was pointing at the deleted beta resource, giving everyone a 404 log line each run.

Added​

  • Staff picks: curated resources for LIVE/TEST/EMU. Turn it off if you don't care what we like.

Changed​

  • Authentication now uses OAuth2, though you can still use an API key if you prefer.

Fixed​

  • publish: --message can be a file path. If it’s a Keep a Changelog file, we'll use the matching version entry; otherwise the file contents are posted. Empty messages are skipped.
  • Corrected maps directory handling for special resources. Sorry for the bad maps dirs all this time! Please delete the old ones from your EQ directory.

Added​

  • Navmesh support, thanks to wired420/mqmesh.com
