Version 0.170

API

  • App Channels:
    Channels are no longer exclusive to the Overwolf client, apps can now also have channels; Creators can set a specific channel to use a specific version, this way they can super easily create and distribute beta versions for their apps.
  • In-app Subscriptions flow:
    We now give Creators the option to show the subscription modal inside their apps. You will never have to send the users to the store again.

Platform

  • .NET 4.8 implementation - we’ve upgraded the .NET version Overwolf uses to 4.8.

Dev Console

  • Subscriptions statistics page was added

Bug fixes

  • Fix overwolf.utils.openUrlInOverwolfBrowser: allow to open tab and redirect back to extension when origin URL is at 'externally_connectable' and to tab was open from the same extension.
  • Overwolf no longer reloads apps when a secondary GPU process is being created.
  • Fixed a typo in setRequiredFeatures when getting the “Provider not ready” error, what was once succedss is now success.
