Hyperlaunch - devlog 4.

It’s been a month since my last devlog because I’ve just been unmotivated to continue working. I do really want to finish this though, so I’ll see it through.

This update is mostly about bugfixes. There are no big new features done.

Modrinth support

I spent a good 3-5 hours building out a proper, full featured Modrinth search client, just for the API docs to be wrong, meaning I massively over-engineered a simple system. Really annoying.

Bugfixes

All the optimisations and big changes I made over the past few devlogs meant I had a lot of broken code on my hands. Won’t list everything here, but:

• Nearly all code bound to the UI was outdated/wrong
• Microsoft auth broke
• The code that handles downloading the client would not extract some necessary files
• Listing versions to download broke

Small new features

• Hyperlaunch can now generate Java launch commands, handling downloads/logins/etc. automatically.
• That’s.. it.

No video for this devlog, have some assorted screenshots from development on this devlog’s work.
