Follow Seren Spirits from the original v4 foundation through the current production archive, including interface improvements, evidence safeguards, Alt1 changes, and community systems.
Stopped app updates and reopened Alt1 windows from registering existing contributors as brand-new installations.
Moved installation identity from temporary session-only storage into a persistent per-profile identity map.
Kept each named RuneScape username on its own stable installation ID while preserving one stable private identity for Anonymous mode.
Persisted the server-issued Anonymous #**** tag so anonymous contributors keep the same public profile after updates and restarts.
Shared the current authentication token per profile across Alt1 windows, preventing one window from repeatedly invalidating another window's session.
Migrated an already-open v4.0.51 session ID or an older saved installation ID into the new persistent profile map on first launch.
Kept version upgrades as updates to last_app_version and heartbeat fields instead of creating replacement installation rows.
v4.0.51
Production
Selectable Seren alert sounds
Added a selectable Seren Spirit alert library with seven choices, test playback, and a clear warning on the final explicit voice option.
Added a sound selector to the Alt1 Settings panel for Seren Spirit appearance alerts.
Added Seren Chimes, Ice Blitz, RuneScape Death, One Billion GP, Old School Curse, and OSRS Tele alert choices.
Kept Way 2 RuneScape Dat Shit as the final option and added a trigger warning for explicit language, loud voice audio, and its longer playback.
Updated the Test alert button to preview the currently selected sound before saving.
Stored the selected alert locally per Alt1 installation and preserved Seren Chimes as the safe fallback if an audio file cannot load.
Kept sound selection separate from the reward chime and cursor-following tooltip controls.
v4.0.50
Production
Personal achievement cabinets
Added a complete personal achievement cabinet to every public contributor profile, using the same milestones already tracked by the Alt1 app.
Added personal achievement completion totals to named and anonymous contributor profiles.
Added Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Mythic tier summaries with recently earned trophies and recorded unlock dates.
Added live progress cards for the six achievements closest to unlocking.
Added an expandable ledger containing all 76 personal achievements and their current progress.
Kept named-player progress combined across installations while anonymous tags remain isolated to their private installation identity.
Reused the existing server-side achievement engine and unlock table, so website and Alt1 progress cannot drift apart.
v4.0.49
Production
Seren appearance sound and cursor alert
Added immediate, configurable alerts when a Seren spirit appears, including a bright sound and an Alt1 tooltip that follows the mouse cursor.
Played a distinctive three-note alert as soon as the Seren spirit appearance message is detected, before the reward is collected.
Added an Alt1 cursor-following tooltip that tells the player to click the Seren spirit before it disappears.
Cleared the tooltip after ten seconds, when the reward is detected, when tracking stops, or when the app closes.
Added a duplicate-alert cooldown to prevent repeated OCR reads from spamming notifications.
Added separate settings for appearance sound, mouse tooltip, reward chime, and visual notifications, plus a Test alert button.
Requested Alt1 overlay permission and added an in-app warning when Show overlay is unavailable.
v4.0.48
Production
Private anonymous contributor tags
Replaced the shared Anonymous identity with stable server-assigned tags so private contributors keep separate histories without revealing RuneScape usernames or installation identifiers.
Assigned each anonymous Alt1 installation a unique four-character public identity such as Anonymous #K7P4.
Migrated existing Anonymous reward, review, suggestion, follow-up, and bug-report records to their installation's new tag.
Separated anonymous contributor profiles, archive filters, leaderboards, achievements, presence totals, and exports while preserving privacy.
Reserved the Anonymous name pattern so named users cannot imitate app-issued identities.
Added automatic database migration to the live deployment script and preserved each tag when an installation switches between named and anonymous modes.
Kept older cached Alt1 builds compatible by mapping their generic Anonymous uploads to the installation's assigned tag.
v4.0.47
Hotfix
Accurate UTC submission times
Corrected database-session and timestamp parsing behavior that could make a brand-new submission appear five or six hours old.
Forced public, API, installer, proof, and background-script MySQL sessions to UTC.
Added shared UTC-safe parsing for relative timestamps and RuneScape game-time displays.
Fixed the Status page Latest submission value appearing five hours old during daylight saving time.
Prevented the same display error from becoming a six-hour offset during standard time.
Kept existing database records unchanged because the stored timestamps were already valid.
v4.0.45
Production
Personal achievements and confetti celebrations
Expanded Community Honors with distinctive collection challenges and added personal Alt1 achievements that celebrate new unlocks with optional confetti popups.
Added Constellation Challenges to Community Honors, including collection sets, time-of-day coverage, contributor feats, calendar coverage, and unusual archive combinations.
Added 76 personal achievements spanning submissions, item volume, unique rewards, streaks, rarity, value, collection sets, time coverage, rare trophies, and unusual reward patterns.
Added server-side achievement unlock persistence so each personal milestone is celebrated only once.
Added Alt1 achievement popups with tier styling, progress details, queued multi-unlock handling, optional sound, and animated confetti.
Added an Achievement celebrations preference to Alt1 settings.
Seeded achievements earned before this release silently so returning contributors are not flooded with historical unlocks.
