JoiPlayer 1.00.40 and RPG Maker Plugin 1.01.40 are out!
🕑 Added 2021-03-14 14:05:55 +0000 UTCHi guys! It's been a long time since my last post. I've been pushing updates to the beta channel constantly to fix issues and improve stability. This update brings all bug fixes and improvements from the beta channel. You can see the changelog at bottom of the post.
Android 11 came with new storage limitations which cause new issues. File API on Android 11 and later is rewritten into a wrapper and some operations are a lot slower now. This makes generation of path cache extremely slow and causes ANR (Application Not Responding) errors sometimes. This update brings "Prebuilt Path Cache" option and case-insensitive file access support without path cache to make things a bit better. I suggest disabling "Path Cache" and enabling "Prebuilt Path Cache" in RPG Settings on Android 11 devices to solve ANR errors and make file access faster. These settings can be used on other Android versions too, but there might be unexpected side effects like missing or corrupted bitmaps.
App updates on Google Play will be required to target API level 30 (Android 11) in November so there will be some major changes. I'm not sure about what to do at this moment but I can say that some functions will be limited to older versions of Android or will be removed completely. Probably I will post apk files with lower target sdk versions here until everything is done.
Changelog:
JoiPlay 1.00.40 :
- Theme settings are fixed.
- Buffer.from method is added to NWJSAPI.
- Path cache is disabled by default for Android 11 devices.
- A few minor layout changes are made.
- Some improvements are made for RPG Maker MV games.
- Standalone version of Ruffle is added as an experimental way to play swf files.
RPG Maker Plugin 1.01.40 :
- A small change is made to prevent running postload scripts more than once.
- MKXP::run_postload method is added to run postload scripts from game.
- Case-insensitive file access without path cache is now supported.
- Prebuilt path cache is modified to allow online cache generation and it can be used without enabling path cache now.
- Unsupported bitmap operations cause transparent/black boxes instead of throwing exceptions now.
- A lot of bug fixes and overrides are added to fix game bugs.
- Some changes are made to fix crashes and improve stability.

JoiPlay
Hi! Google Play always has the latest versions including beta builds. Patrons can access closed alpha builds on Google Play if they use the same e-mail on Patreon and Google Play. I usually share changelogs of stable releases to keep users informed about what's changed. Also after this August, I will publish a separate build for Android 11+ users here.

So I've just started following as a patron, I've been using JoiPlay for a while and wanted to support. Its only when I started having issues playing a game with it that I discover the patreon. My question is how do I access the latest version of JoiPlayer? Follow up question while does this say JoiPlayer 1.00.40 is out but the version I have from google play say it is version 1.00.44?
