• The Main tab is currently empty for me and gives zero information on what to do, I click on "Update List" button and nothing happens either. Should provide help or guidance, or errors if they do happen, in readable text form. Personally I would like to see the entire list of supported games, even if I can't do anything about them, just grey them up until they're installed and actionable?
• In the About, clicking on "check for updates" only shows a brief loading bar and nothing else happens. Should show a confirmation or error in text form somewhere.
• I unzipped and had to do a lot of scrolling to find the executable. Considering moving all the DLLs to a subfolder. Very minor issue.

Other than this, I installed Fallout 1, updated the list, applied the fixt patch, opened the game and everything worked exactly as it should. Grats!

Tried to join the discord server and the link is not working? Would love to speak and contribute to the community!

Since the Microsoft Store adds support for not just UWP but all sorts of apps, this will be an easy way to have a storefront for this application. I really like the auto-update functionality of the Microsoft Store instead of having it per app. It's annoying to look up the latest version on GitHub, and an auto-updater would make it feel more modern. Apps like Auto Dark Mode also take advantage of this feature on the Microsoft Store instead of having an extra updater within the application.

Tons of games also benefit from running DXVK while also being a more involved installation process. Could this also be implemented in the fixes panel? This will allow for games like GTA 4 and Deus Ex to work a lot smoother in modern hardware.

For games which are detected in the user's Steam account but not installed it would be nice to have the option to trigger the install from within Superheater. Playnite does this using just the Steam URLs, then checks to see when the game has finished installing.

Would love to see some work done for this to be interactive with Playnite. Getting all of the fixes installed and working with all of my launchers would be a godsend.

Steam-like feature to verify fix's files in case they are overwritten by game update.

I've tried each version of Superheater on my Windows 11 PC. The config.xml is created and a window shows up briefly. Then the application crashes. Launching from the command line - with -dev or not - results in no output. The event log is empty.

I manually installed .NET 6 32 and 64 bit runtimes without improvement.

Are there other runtime dependencies needed? What can be done to troubleshoot this further?
