Release v1.4.0 - Added Shader Settings + Electron v4

Release v1.4.0

Have you ever tried to turn shaders on ingame, but the whole thing just freezes for 5 minutes? Have you ever wished for a simple way to turn shaders on before you start the game? If so, v1.4.0 of the WesterosCraft Launcher is perfect for you!

You can now switch shaderpacks on the Mods tab of the Settings view. This value only takes effect before the game is launched. When the game is launched, you need to use the in-game option.

You can open the shaderpack folder by clicking on the + icon. Drag and drop is also enabled on this button. Drag any shaderpack over it to move it to the shaderpack folder.

New Features

• a4d4b69 Added Shader Options. You can now select a shaderpack through the launcher before you start the game.

Release v1.3.0 - Fixed Issue w/ Native Library Parsing

Release v1.3.0

Update is especially important for macOS users.

In Minecraft 1.12.2, some native libraries omit the rules object even when not providing a native library on macOS. We now check for this by ensuring the classifer is present in the natives object as well.

You can now drag and drop files onto the "Add Mods" button in Drop-In Mod Settings.
