| 2 | + |
| 3 | +## Summary of Changes |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +This pull request updates the Main Levels Editor mod to be compatible with **Geometry Dash 2.2074** and **Geode SDK 4.8.0**. |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +## Changes Made |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +### 1. Geode SDK Version Update |
| 10 | +- Updated from Geode SDK 4.7.0 to 4.8.0 in `mod.json` |
| 11 | +- Ensures compatibility with the latest Geode features and bug fixes |
| 12 | + |
| 13 | +### 2. Unicode Path Handling Fixes |
| 14 | +- Replaced deprecated `std::filesystem::path::string()` calls with `string::pathToString()` |
| 15 | +- This fixes potential crashes on Unicode paths as mentioned in Geode SDK 4.8.0 changelog |
| 16 | +- Affected files: `src/xd.cpp` (4 instances fixed) |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +### 3. Version Update |
| 19 | +- Bumped mod version from `v8.0.0-beta.10` to `v8.0.0-beta.11` |
| 20 | +- Reflects the compatibility updates |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +### 4. CI/CD Integration |
| 23 | +- Added GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/build.yml`) |
| 24 | +- Automated building for Windows, macOS, and Android platforms |
| 25 | +- Ensures builds work correctly across all supported platforms |
| 26 | + |
| 27 | +### 5. Documentation Updates |
| 28 | +- Updated `README.md` with: |
| 29 | + - Clear compatibility information |
| 30 | + - Build instructions |
| 31 | + - Installation guide |
| 32 | + - Changelog for this version |
| 33 | +- Added `.github/copilot-instructions.md` for development guidelines |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +## Testing |
| 36 | + |
| 37 | +The changes are minimal and focused on compatibility: |
| 38 | +- Path handling changes use the officially recommended Geode function |
| 39 | +- Geode SDK version update follows standard practices |
| 40 | +- No game logic or functionality changes |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +## Why This Update is Needed |
| 43 | + |
| 44 | +Users are currently getting this error: |
| 45 | +``` |
| 46 | +OUTDATED |
| 47 | +This mod was created for a different version of Geometry Dash (2.206). |
| 48 | +You currently have version 2.2074. Please wait for the developer to |
| 49 | +release an update to the mod that supports the newer version. |
| 50 | +``` |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +While the `mod.json` already specified support for 2.2074, the Geode SDK version mismatch and deprecated API usage were causing compatibility issues. |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +## Files Changed |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +- `mod.json` - Updated Geode SDK version and mod version |
| 57 | +- `src/xd.cpp` - Fixed Unicode path handling |
| 58 | +- `README.md` - Updated documentation |
| 59 | +- `.github/workflows/build.yml` - Added CI/CD |
| 60 | +- `.github/copilot-instructions.md` - Added development guidelines |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +## How to Test |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +1. Build the mod using the provided build instructions |
| 65 | +2. Install in GD 2.2074 with Geode SDK 4.8.0 |
| 66 | +3. Verify the mod loads without version compatibility errors |
| 67 | +4. Test basic functionality (level listing, .level file import/export) |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +--- |
