+---
+
+Oh me, oh my - there's a lot to talk about! It's been a couple of months, but I made some pretty huge changes.
+
+# Moving to GitHub
+
+I made [an executive decision](https://mastodon.art/@redstrate/112315184471699059) to move my FFXIV projects to GitHub, from sourcehut. I did it for two main reasons:
+
+1. builds.sr.ht does not provide Windows/macOS images, which led to me dropping support for those.
+2. Almost all FFXIV projects exist on GitHub. Being on GitHub reduces the barriers from those coming from other projects.
+
+So now I have moved most (but not all) of the FFXIV related stuff over to [my GitHub](https://github.com/redstrate?tab=repositories&q=&type=source&language=&sort=). I'm still in the process of updating URLs and sunsetting the sr.ht. repositories.
+
+## Continuous Integration
+
+For [Novus](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus) and [Astra](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra), (for the first time in a while) Windows builds are available again! Right now you have to download them through GitHub actions - which requires a GitHub account - but I plan on uploading them to [xiv.zone](https://xiv.zone/) as before.
+
+(Note that Physis documentation updating and Flatpak are missing from the GitHub CI at the moment.)
+
+Also as of the time of writing, the Windows version of Astra is not expected to work out of the box.
+
+I have no plans to support macOS, but would not turn down a contribution to add support for it again.
+
+# Astra
+
+Switched to [the new Dalamud distribution server and made the asset updater more resilient](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/51715ca3be52b231cbed1dc791f077fe95529edc).
+
+Added [support for 64-bit only clients](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/516c0926a67d86a502d8b99ee02803cd9adf3314).
+
+Bypass [the annoying FFXIV website browser check](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/f97204a422fc36f2153c9fa026cc19c20b9b7fc1) automatically when using the integrated web browser.
+
+Added [the latest expansion logo to the login page](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/001e20b1b8ca5b3348d0b26b75b8c470e1e037da).
+
+![How it looks on the login page](logo.webp)
+
+Expose a [RenderDoc capture option for easily capturing the game](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/b7c67b3f70fc1195d5afc3aa2d3e316fbc79bd9f) when launching it through Astra. It's located under "Developer Settings":
+
+![The new developer setting](capture.webp)
+
+Added [preliminary support for launching the benchmark](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/49f8aae87736bfed1d1250ff2f24716adf3d1cc2). I still have to expose options for the benchmark and stuff.
+
+Added [an option to open the user data folder](https://github.com/redstrate/Astra/commit/346f4eae9ec06d6d85b7eae6e668c23df290c700) easily from
+settings.
+
+![The new button](user.webp)
+
+# Physis
+
+Physis has gained experimental Dawntrail support. It can read stuff like models, materials and shader packages albeit not very well tested. This took a huge load off my back as I was worried Dawntrail was going to completely obliterate my existing code.
+
+![An example of Dawntrail clothing from the benchmark](dawntrail.webp)
+
+On the topic of Dawntrail, I [added support for index2 files](https://github.com/redstrate/Physis/commit/4fa77965c12abf2f972b5f2cdd936745d8fe0536) which means benchmark data is now properly supported in Physis.
+
+I also added support for [basic reading of maps from the game, including terrain and layer files](https://github.com/redstrate/Physis/commit/256b3f9305a9bec152080fb3689b62edee7ec5e6).
+
+I've been busy deepening model support, adding support for more vertex types and some form of shape data reading/writing (but that's not complete yet!)
+
+I also made some [fixes for patches failing on recent game versions](https://github.com/redstrate/Physis/commit/8e6b0dd6b4b22050096f720730e372e0c443cc08).
+
+I integrated Jim Kirisame's [vulgar words reader](https://github.com/Lotlab/ffxiv-vulgar-words-reader/) for reading .dic files, so [those can now be read by Physis](https://github.com/redstrate/Physis/commit/5574e75325b0ee6cf0989c11f21e6666861749db)!
+
+Some boring refactoring these past few months too, including shrinking the amount of dependencies. Yay!
+
+## C# Bindings
+
+I want to announce a new project I started, but not sure how far I'm going with it yet.
+
+Lots of stuff in the FFXIV world uses C#, so it only makes sense that Physis is available for that too. I started [PhysisSharp](https://github.com/redstrate/PhysisSharp) which is a set of bindings of Physis in C#. I still have to _write_ most of it, but I already figured out the hard part: the build process 😄
+
+If you're curious about how the Rust <-> C# library is built, check out the README in the repository.
+
+# Novus
+
+## Gear Editor
+
+Added [item icons to the gear list](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/1bddb6f8f0f6c88a5c3bdafdb1797fd053ac7e17). This is pretty greedy and can be cached better. Even then, everything still loads surprisingly fast.
+
+![How the gear list looks now](icons.webp)
+
+## Data Explorer
+
+Added support [for importing or downloading the path list](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/5d455c4ce085592cd61cc8947fb8a9df507614bc). The import still takes way too long though.
+
+![Showcase of the new menu](pathlist.webp)
+
+Added [an actual file type database](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/9d129163bb40626b32c745d3de6f11ccbfd0bbe7), including nice type names in the file properties and icons in the sidebar.
+
+![Showcase of the new menu](filelist.webp)
+
+Added a menu item to [copy the file path when right-clicking files](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/ce29debf240fc56e81426b8beebf75dc18225682).
+
+## Excel Editor
+
+Added a [search bar for searching through available sheets](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/d58fcf7e984f11b22a4cc9cda8d832577a4e4493).
+
+Added a function to [download or import Godbert definitions easily](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/f6c9d13b094d94845ed5e456a86fdfd71665b1da).
+
+![Showcase of the new menu](import-excel.webp)
+
+## Model Viewer
+
+Added a way [to switch to wireframe mode](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/5c907b63da9d81d872722f51e63e3b24874954e0).
+
+Added a statistics tab to [list the level of detail and triangle count](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/26c7fad3a064887b5d3cfe18c5ec2281c5b26eb3).
+
+## Map Editor
+
+Added a simple program to [view the map files from the game](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/c19ff1e132730baa2149e281a9371c8b3da31dc0). Still very basic but it does work!
+
+![Showing part of a... hill? Or something?](map.webp)
+
+## Material Editor
+
+A simple program to [view the material's shaders, parameters, etc](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/commit/568b8f2eea33d542cf08b441707a90fcac797f92).
+
+![Materials!](mateditor.webp)
+
+## Renderer
+
+As I discussed in [the last blog post]({{< ref "ffxiv-dec2023" >}}), a big goal of mine this year was to re-create FFXIV's rendering system and I'm happy to say I was successful!
+
+![A piece of armor rendered like the game](renderer.webp)
+
+Here's a piece of armor being rendered without any custom shaders[^1], it's all read from game data. Big thanks to [Ouroboros](https://github.com/Shaderlayan/Ouroboros/) and the people in the FFXIV Discords for helping me along. Oh yeah, and [RenderDoc](https://renderdoc.org) for being a fantastic tool as always.
+
+I'm working on adding support for Dawntrail shaders next, you can follow along [here](https://github.com/redstrate/Novus/issues/6).
+
+---
+
+See you next time!
+
+[^1]: Technically there's some, such as the blit from composite to swapchain and the Dear ImGui overlay.
