MultiPatch 2.0

• XDelta updated to version 3.1.0 and enabled support for both DJW and FGK secondary compression. Patches using either of these compression methods should now apply without error.
• Code cleanup contributed by @MaddTheSane
• Added Check for Updates feature. Automatic check for updates can be enabled or disabled from the Preferences dialog.
• New icon and refreshed UI to look better on macOS 11 and later.
• Since automatic updates will only update the app, I removed the ReadMe file from the download and migrated that information to the website. The website has also been updated with the latest app screenshot and support for Dark Mode on compatible browsers.

MultiPatch 1.8

• Replaced PPF patching engine with the official one. This fixes problems patching some files.
• Added support for PPF3 creation. This produces larger files than BPS so you probably shouldn’t use it but it is still very popular for the format’s original purpose.
• Fixed appearance of the Create and Apply buttons, they always looked disabled on macOS 11 because the button type previously used is now deprecated.
• Command line version lowered to target 10.9 and later like the desktop version.

MultiPatch 1.7.1

• Added native support for Apple Silicon Macs.
• macOS 10.9 or later is now required due to requirements for supporting newer Macs. Previous versions will remain available for download for older Macs.
• Updated Floating IPS code to the latest version, which might have some bug fixes.
• Includes text corrections submitted by Eric Newport; some instances of the app name MultiPatch contained a space.
• Added command line version as a separate download on the website. The command line build requires macOS 11.0 or newer, because I forgot to target an older version when I released it.

MultiPatch 1.7

Changes in MultiPatch 1.7:

• Fixed: PPF Patches did not apply correctly most of the time. (This LibPPF bug was originally documented by Ritesh Sood on SourceForge)
• Switched IPS, UPS and BPS support to the Floating IPS library. It appears to be the preferred library for creating and applying IPS and BPS patches now, creating the most efficient patches and offering the best patch compatibility.
• Added support for applying Ninja 2 .rup patches.
• Compatible with system dark mode in macOS 10.14 Mojave.
• Added the ability to disable checksum validation when applying XDelta patches. The option is found in the new preferences window. This preference is only valid for your current session and will be turned back off the next time you launch MultiPatch. When you get a checksum error trying to apply an XDelta patch, it means the file you’re trying to patch is not the same file that the patch was created for. Enabling this new option allows you to patch anyway, but it’s very likely that the patched file will not work.
