I rewrote the app

Following CVE-2023-40168, I have spent the last while rewriting the desktop app from the ground-up with security as a top priority from the beginning. There are a few results of this:

  • The app's foundation is much more secure (which doesn't mean no bugs -- just fewer opportunities)
  • Bugs are very likely.
  • Your data such as addon settings and the backpack have to be transferred from the old storage place to the new one. The app will do this automatically, but this is a risky operation. Take note of your backpack and settings before you update and then compare them after. If you notice any difference, please notify us, that is a serious bug.
  • We currently do not delete your old data. We will in a future release.

v1.7.2-beta.1 Pre-release
Pre-release
  • Updated extension gallery: there's something like 14 new ones and a bunch of fixes

  • Fixed a crash in the folders addon
  • Not actually 100% sure if the app still works on Windows. Let us know if it doesn't.

v1.7.0-beta.2 Pre-release
Pre-release
  • New file saving code that uses significantly less memory. As part of this, we've made a lot of changes to the file saving code, which is extremely scary. Please test this out on a file that you don't care much about first. It may be slower now, but we think that's a worthwhile tradeoff.
  • The desktop app now includes a copy of extensions.turbowarp.org. This improves security, allows these extensions to work offline, and makes them load faster. We also added a few custom extensions to the builtin extension library and a link to extensions.turbowarp.org which will open inside the app (and again, works offline).
  • New addons: Collapsing sprite properties, always show number pad (paint snap coming later)
  • Various other bug fixes

v1.7.0-beta.0

v1.7.0-beta.0 Pre-release
Pre-release

We're rather behind and will continue to be behind, so we're tagging a beta release as a stopgap for people who want the new features.

Notable things: unsandboxed extensions, rename broadcasts, automatic extension loading

The final version of 1.7.0 will probably have all the extensions preloaded in the app locally instead of fetching things from extensions.turbowarp.org, but for now an unfiltered internet connection is required to use those extensions
