Broken!

This release is broken since the Ultimatum league. We have removed the download links. Please check the 2.0-beta releases instead.

Release v1.2.0

Introduction

This release is mainly focused on maintenance. We have rewritten most of the application in a new pattern. There are still some new features and fixes.

Warning!

Unfortunately, as reported by many users, we have found memory leaks in the application. The cause is the WPF technology being very picky with its data. We are planning on rewriting our UI very soon to fix these issues. If you were using Sidekick before, this version will not be worse.
We recommend you restart Sidekick every few hours to minimize RAM usage. Especially if you price check a lot.

New features

  • The initialization process has been changed. We added a Setup phase that will ask for some settings before doing the normal initialization process. This step will be asked on the first run and when leagues change. This fixes some issues where CloudFlare was blocking some regions from accessing the English API. #431 #432
  • Redesigned the settings view. With this change, some of your settings have been reset. #416
  • Pressing Escape now closes views. #420
  • Added custom chat commands #494 [ Thanks @JadedCricket ]
  • Cheat sheets can now stay open after closing other views (price and map). This allows you to have cheat sheets open on a second monitor. #436
  • Updated the runtime to .Net 5. The new runtime was released in November 2020, and we are keeping up to date.
  • Use the database as our cache. This will make the initialization quicker as we do not download all the data on each initialization. #425 #453

Removed features

  • Removed reply to latest whisper functionality. #407
