v3.3.1

GUI Changes

• Standalone versions now create a text file config.ini to store options in instead of using the registry
• Fix a bunch of bugs related to installing Qt networking libraries (forgot a few things)

Note: if you're using the standalone version, this release will clear your old options. This shouldn't be much of a problem seeing as there are 4 of them right now.

GUI Changes

• Rename "New..." to "Create Empty..."
• Add new function "Create From Folder..." to create a new VPK from a folder

• Fix directory preview crashing when it displays a file with a name that is all extension (e.g. .gitignore)
• Fix malformed Linux installer files

For Developers

v3.1.1

The project has been renamed to VPKEdit to better describe the library and GUI tool, and to stop competing with the 8 other VPKTool repositories on GitHub (no seriously, it was literally 8 at the time of writing). No other changes have been made from v3.1.0 in this release.
