This release doesn't contain a Linux 32-bit binary, because unfortunately the Electron framework used to create app binaries no longer supports this architecture.

See the 2.8.0 project for links to details on these notes.

New Features Added

  • In App Twine only:
    • The location of the story library can be changed. It can be done either using a menu item preference or command-line switch.
    • Hardware accelerated graphics can be disabled. It can be done either using a menu item preference or command-line switch.
    • The location of story library backups can be changed. This can only be done using a command-line switch. Please read the documentation carefully before using this option.
    • Instead of using the system-wide temporary directory, Twine now uses a dedicated scratch folder and prunes old files from it automatically. The location of this folder can be changed using a command-line switch only. Please read the documentation carefully before using this option.
  • A Korean localization has been added.

Bugs Fixed

  • An issue where clicking rapidly on a passage and then dragging it would cause the passage to move incorrectly has been fixed.
  • An issue where closing a passage editor while the find dialog was open caused a crash has been fixed.
  • A typo in the Finnish localization has been fixed.

Behind the Scenes

  • The app now uses Vite for bundling instead of create-react-app.
  • The underyling Electron framework for the desktop app has been updated to version 26.
