System & Game Manager – Changelog (v0.5.x)

🛠 Architecture Refactoring

  • Namespace Cleanup: Removed the legacy Krassheiten. prefix from all namespaces, streamlining to standard scopes like SystemGameManager.*.
  • Module Restructuring: Moved core functionality (Database, PC Info, Games) into a dedicated /modules/ directory. Updated project references and .gitignore accordingly.
  • UI Decoupling & Page System: Replaced the monolithic MainForm.cs logic with a modular page system under /view/Pages/. Introduced GameManager, MenuPage, Settings, and Info pages to decouple UI from service layers.

🎨 Visual & UX Improvements

  • Theming Engine: Implemented robust ColorThemes class that automatically detects Dark/Light mode via Windows registry settings (AppsUseLightTheme) and applies consistent colors across the application.
  • Custom Controls: Introduced reusable modular components:
    • NormalButton: Handles dynamic hover/down states based on theme configuration instead of hardcoded hex values.
    • ModernTrackBar & HoverShadowPanel: Custom implementations for volume controls and card shadows that respect global color themes.
    • SVG Icon Support: Integrated Font Awesome icons (SVG) loaded dynamically via helper methods, replacing legacy assets or images.
  • Layout Updates: Redefined the UI with a dedicated side-bar navigation (Navbar) and consistent rounded corners based on global ColorThemes.

📦 Asset & Data Handling

  • Database Migration: Adjusted configuration paths to load SQLite databases from /modules/database/ (e.g., systemgamemanager.db). Updated .csproj copy logic.
  • Config Updates: Enhanced EA Desktop integration in knownLaunchers.json, specifically adding support for the "ProgramData" path alongside standard installation paths.
  • Entity Refactoring: Consolidated game and launcher data into new Entity modules under /modules/game/. Removed legacy entity classes (Game.cs, Launcher.cs from root) in favor of modular versions using generic arrays instead of Record types where appropriate.

🔧 Technical Fixes & Utilities

  • Error Handling: Enhanced exception handling across view initialization states (e.g., data fetching failures, file missing errors).
  • Utility Helpers: Added helper functions to darken/lighten colors dynamically (Darker, Lighter) based on theme settings and SVG processing utilities for dynamic icon color adjustment.
  • Console Output: Fixed encoding issues in startup messages ("Audio-Monitoring läuft..." now displays correctly) by updating the target framework compatibility and string literals.

🧹 Code Hygiene & Cleanup

  • Legacy Removal: Removed unused controllers (PcInfoController, GameInfoView) and legacy view classes that were replaced by new, modular components. Cleaned up monolithic service implementations (e.g., old MainForm.cs logic moved to pages).
  • Consolidation of Usings: Standardized static usings in GlobalUsings.cs for cleaner file structures; removed unused imports and consolidated into specific module namespaces.
