Ayo, gamers!
We hope you're grabbing some awesome games on this Summer Sale (and of course playing them)!
This is probably one of the most boring updates you'll ever see, but it was very important that we get this pushed as the game detection seemed to have serious issues with Java programs.
v0.99.4.1
- Magic Borderless now properly exits when the Steam client requests it to shutdown.
- Fixed rare apps getting detected as "games" when it is graphical hardware-accelerated on slow computers.
- Fixed all graphical hardware-accelerated Java apps getting detected as "games".
- Fixed the application freezing when Steam was shut off unexpectedly (including crashes).
Behavior changes to the Steam client shutting down
Magic Borderless used to freeze after Steam has shut down. This led to configuration corruption on rare cases. To prevent such tragedy, we are shutting the program down when Steam does.
We're not a huge fan of this behavior so if you also dislike this, don't worry! This is just a temporary workaround to freezing. Our solution to keep Magic Borderless running after Steam shuts down is already in the works, but we need more time. Because we didn't want our users to experience configuration corruption or freezes (without not knowing why), we had to implement this as an emergency patchwork.
We are, as we always have been, working really hard to bring you guys a bigger update. In the meantime, please enjoy this small package of hotfixes.
This update has passed all antivirus (AV) vendors tests available on VirusTotal. If you're still getting false positive alerts, please update your AV, in case you're still concerned.
If you are enjoying these updates, please spread the word and give us a good review. It can really help us keep working on Magic Borderless further!
Always with love,
Studio Christmas.
