PokeFinder Versions Save

Bugs:

• Fix filtering issues in both Stationary and Wild searchers for gen 4

If you download a windows build you might need to install the c++ redistributable. You can find the download page here.

What I have been calling both the redesign/rerwrite for the last several months is finished. This will make it easier for me going forward and has provided PokeFinder with increased speed and decreased memory usage across the program.

Additions:

• Square shiny filtering (This will allow you to know when importing to Gen 8 through Home what shiny type your pokemon is)
• Channel Seed Finder
• Add popup completion to IV Calculator and Encounter Lookup

Changes:

• Channel Jirachi searching will now automatically filter by valid spreads
• Group all GameCube tools together under Gen 3 Tools > GameCube

Bugs:

• Fix an off by 1 issue in gen 4 searchers

I'm probably forgetting other stuff

Changes:

• Instructions in README for installation and building
• Change validation for IDs4 year fields (easier to edit)

• Change how profiles are being stored
• Linux builds are now on Ubuntu 18.04 with Qt 5.9

The GameCube Seed Finder that was added requires the use of precalculation files. They can be downloaded here.

This is a bug fix release to address the issues that were introduced in version 2.3.0.

Bugs:

• Fixed a bug that wouldn't allow selection of the method in Stationary3/GameCube
• Fixed a bug that would make PokéFinder think that there is always a new update to download

Additions:

• Add Encounter Lookup. This will output all locations and level ranges for a Pokémon given a specific game
• Add Chained Shiny to SID. This helps determine SID from a chained shiny in Gen 4.
• Add IV Calculator. This will calculate the most likely IVs for a Pokémon based on generation, level, characteristic, nature, and hidden power.
• Add Spinda Painter. This helps determine the calibration for Emerald egg breeding
• Add output results to txt/csv to Gen 4

Changes:

• Move option to select style from command line to UI
• Group language and style setting under a single menu
• Change tab ordering on some forms to make more sense
• Change sizing of controls on most forms
• Move Gales/Colo/Channel searching to its own form

Bugs:

• Fixed bug that made Gen3 Searcher give wrong results for Cute Charm
• Fixed bug that made Gen3 Searcher give wrong results for Method H2

Additions:

• Add split and alternate to FRLG eggs
• New control for eggs. Allows to swap parent A and B as well as show inheritance
• Add option to use default style of OS with command line argument
• Add dialog to confirm deletion of profile

Changes:

• For Gen 3 Eggs (FRLG and RS) separate field for seed into two, one for pickup and one for held
• Rework IV filters. Still has same click controls with now with a tool-tip
• Change from custom style to QDarkStyle

• Fix issue with filtering now working for Gen4 eggs

Additions:

• Display level in Gen 4 Wild searcher
• Modifiers for Gen 4 Wild encounters (Pokeradar, Swarm, Time)
• CSS tweaks to make disabled controls actually look different
• Display good IVs(31 or 30) in bold to make it easier to identify better spreads

Changes:

• Update to use Qt 5.12
• Reorganize a majority of the code and UI(should not be any noticeable functionality changes)
• Convert all uses of thread to QThread
• Switch builds to use c++17
• Convert Gen 3 Encounter tables to custom format

Bugs:

• Fix inheritance calculation for eggs in both Gen 3 and Gen 4
• Fix support for fishing in Gen 4
• Fix support for rock smash in Gen 4

For the auto-update checker introduced in the last release SSL is required. Qt is linked against OpenSSL 1.0.2p. Due to laws regarding cryptography I will not be including the necessary files with PokeFinder for OpenSSL. You can install them manually by going to this website.

Due to issues with the mingw build it has been removed and the build for Windows is with msvc using Qt 5.11.

Additions:

• Add E-Reader encounters for Colo
• Add update checker. Requires SSL I'm pretty sure, will look into this more later.
• Add dual slot and radio to Gen 4 encounters

Changes:

• Custom text box now remembers cursor position when modifying
• Limit methods displayed based on the selected profiles version
• Translation are now stored in the program and no longer require the "Languages" folder.
• Changed profiles from xml to json. Old xml files will no longer work.
• Reworked encounter table format. Takes up less space and easier for me to manage. Gen 3 final format will be in the next release.
• Speedup increases around the board.

Bugs:

• Fix issue where PRNG field for XD/Colo in IDs would only allow 4 characters instead of 8
• Fix probability calculation for Channel Jirachi

Probably forgetting some other stuff. Been a while since the last release, enjoy.
