Asset Hoard v0.1.6 Release Notes

Faster startup, and runtime optimisations

This release improves speeds up startup with lazy loading, 3D thumbnail generation, search, and import scanning. As well as more resiliancy for several filetypes like gltf, gif, mat and others.

🚀 Performance

Faster startup — App boot time is significantly faster thanks to lazy loading of heavy libraries
Non-blocking 3D thumbnails — 3D thumbnail generation now faster async
Thumbnail timeout — Thumbnail generation now has a timeout to prevent the app from hanging
Watched Folder — Scanning on start up massively optimised, we now scan for differences first and import the delta

🔍 Search & Navigation

Smarter search — Empty queries are now skipped, and bundle filters update based on search scope
Smoother loading states — Search results show a cleaner loading experience
Navigation history — Improved consistency between the UI back button and mouse back button
Search input fix — Fixed a reactive loop that could cause search input to behave unexpectedly

📂 Import & Scanning

Artifact filtering — Temporary and system files (like ~$ prefixed files) are now automatically skipped during import scans
Improved folder scanning — Better scan event handling for more reliable folder imports

🎨 Previews

Audio autoplay — Audio files now autoplay when opened in expanded preview mode
Bundle cover thumbnails — Thumbnail generation now works for assets used in bundle covers

🔧 Other Improvements & Bug Fixes

Startup diagnostics — Library stats are logged during startup for easier troubleshooting in debug mode
Debug mode — New logging throughout the app for performance diagnostics
Discord link — Added a Discord icon to the About section in settings
Material files — Binary .mat files are now detected with metadata automatically extracted
Unity Packages — now import into the correct bundle rather than importing unbundled.

May your assets be organised and your bundles be nested.

Happy hoarding!
