Utility SKSE plugin for modlist authors that shows in-game notifications when a modlist update is available. The plugin performs a single check on the first cell load after every game launch. There are two mutually exclusive ways to retrieve version numbers:
- LoadOrderLibrary
- Set bUseLoadOrderLibrary to true and bUseWJ to false
- Set Endpoint to the part of the URL after "/lists" in your LoadOrderLibrary URL
- Set Version to the current version of your list. This is what the version fetched from LoadOrderLibrary will be compared against
- Wabbajack
- Set bUseWJ to true and bUseLoadOrderLibrary to false
- Set MachineURL to the full machine URL of your list (e.g.: LostOutpost/ro)
- Set Version to the current version of your list. This is what the version fetched from Wabbajack will be compared against
Regardless of which method you use to fetch versions, make sure to always set the Name and Version ini settings. Two additional ini settings are provided: uNotificationDelay to control the delay after which the update notification appears (60s by default), and bAlwaysShowCurrentVersion to control whether a notification with the current version of the modlist is always shown, regardless of whether there is an update available. Note that you must update the Version in the ini every time you update your list, same as how many of you update the version in the top separator in MO2 before publishing a list update.
Two versioning formats are supported: major.minor.patch and major.minor.patch.hotfix. If only patch or hotfix differ and major/minor are equal, a "this update is save-safe" notification is displayed. If major or minor differ, a "this update requires a new save" notification is displayed.
