Thank you for downloading AutoLoader! I hope it makes getting back into your Koikatsu Studio work a little faster and smoother.

This is AutoLoader v2.0.0 for Koikatsu CharaStudio.

== Features ==

* Automatically load the newest valid Studio scene on launch.
* Choose one custom startup scene with a built-in Browse button.
* Optionally include the Studio autosave folder when finding the newest scene.
* If a chosen scene was deleted or is invalid, fall back to the next newest valid scene.
* Keep Studio awake until startup and the complete native scene-loading pipeline have finished.
* Restore the user's normal background/stasis setting immediately afterward.
* If no valid scene exists, open Studio normally with an empty scene.

== Configuration ==

Open the BepInEx Configuration Manager with F1 and expand "AutoLoader".

The Startup Scene section contains:

* Auto Load Latest Scene on Start
* Auto Load Custom Scene on Start
* Custom Scene Path (click Browse... to select a scene)
* Include Autosaves When Loading Latest

Latest-scene and custom-scene modes cannot be enabled at the same time. Selecting a custom scene automatically switches AutoLoader to custom-scene mode.

== Background pause / "stasis" ==

This behavior is provided by "Graphics Settings" in the F1 Configuration Manager.

Under General:

* Run in background = false makes Studio pause while its window is unfocused.
* Optimize in background = true reduces rendering work while Studio is unfocused.

AutoLoader temporarily keeps background execution enabled during startup and scene loading, then restores the setting that Graphics Settings applied.

== Compatibility note ==

If you use the older DefaultStudioScene plugin, leave its DefaultScenePath blank while AutoLoader is enabled. Configuring two startup scene loaders can cause two scenes to load one after the other.

== Installation ==

Drag the included "BepInEx" folder into your Koikatsu game folder and allow it to merge with the existing BepInEx folder.

Installed file:
BepInEx/plugins/KK_F604Autoloader.dll
