Summary from GitHub (markdown). For the authoritative copy, open the release on GitHub.
Thank you all for the incredible response to our v2 release! 24 hours later, we already have **18 mods** on our [mod site](https://twilitrealm.dev/mods/), and that number is growing steadily. As with every big release, there's some bugs that slip through the cracks, and we've done our best to knock them out quick. Enjoy! **What's new:** * **Added:** Option to change a save's region when importing `.gci` or `.dusksave` files in Save Manager. ([`422d7bb1b6`](https://github.com/TwilitRealm/dusklight/commit/422d7bb1b6c8d973cccf8b3d0b226a57ac3cc8c7)) * **Fixed:** Restored "Show Shader Compilation" option in Interface settings. ([#2504](https://github.com/TwilitRealm/dusklight/pull/2504), [#2474](https://github.com/TwilitRealm/dusklight/issues/2474)) * **Fixed:** Existing saves could be overwritten with empty slots after a load failure with "Instant Saves" enabled.

Use Save Manager to import saves with custom filenames. * **Fixed:** Startup crash on Intel Macs.

Why we don’t mirror every file
Hosted mirrors go stale. The public TwilitRealm/dusk release page stays current for checksums, notes, and Assets.
