[Older releases]

[1.2.0] - 2026-03-24

Changed

• Added an adaptive scan speed: Faster first scan when joining a group, then slow down the pace.
• Icons displayed to show the queue of players scans, and timedout players.

[1.1.1] - 2026-03-24

Changed

• Moved the addon configuration into a dedicated Config.lua file to keep global settings and visual helpers clearly separated
• Refined the item level color thresholds to better match the current veteran/champion/hero/mythic progression range

Fixed

• Hardened SavedVariables initialization and anchor-point saving to reduce the risk of invalid iLvlChecker.lua data on first use

[1.1.0] - 2026-03-23

Added

• Added client-locale based translations so the addon now adapts automatically to the game language
• Added reviewed translations for German, Spanish, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese clients
• Added a lightweight test mode via /ic test so the UI can be previewed while solo
• Added a soft reload action on right click of the addon icon to relaunch the group scan quickly

Changed

• Added full support for French UI strings while keeping English as the default fallback
• Kept English for the remaining locales on purpose when the translation quality was not reliable enough
• Removed the header scan button and moved the quick rescan action to the toggle icon
• Raised the main window to DIALOG frame strata so it stays above most addon frames more reliably

Fixed

• Prevented test-mode preview rows from trying to open Blizzard inspect
