-## Release (1.23) Highlights
+## Release (1.24) Highlights
 
-This release focuses on memory and load speed optimisations.  
+This is a very small feature update mostly consisting of community PRs.
 
-***Launcher Changes***:
-- Added: Support for assigning tags to mods, mods can now use tags to help end users filter their mod collection.  
-  - This includes support for some automated tags, e.g. `Has Code Injection`.  
+### Custom Controls for Mod Configurations
 
-- Fixed: Bug that prevented users from selecting other mods after updating a mod in `Edit Mod` menu.  
+@jroweboy added the ability additional controls developers can use in their mods ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/952515/227748620-6b25b471-12c9-461b-9c8b-d387a716d54f.png); 
 
-***Space and Memory Related Changes***:  
-- Changed: Loader now uses hooking functionality from `Reloaded.SharedLib.Hooks` mod, as opposed to including its own hooking library. (Saves ~1.4MiB) 
-- Changed: Bootstrapper library now dynamically links with Visual C++ Runtime using custom build of .NET Runtime's `libnethost`. (Saves ~300KiB)  
-- Removed: JSON parser from boostrapper, now uses Environment Variables (Saves ~200KiB)  
-- Added: Full GC After Loader Initialisation. In practice most mods idle outside the occasional hooks.  
-- Mods can now use `ExcludeAssets="runtime"` in NuGet PackageReference(s) to not unnecessarily include DLLs from interfaces/DI packages.  
+The 3 new custom controls are:
+```
+Slider: Horizontal Slider with an optional textbox to display the value
+FilePicker: Textbox with a button to open a `OpenFileDialog`.
+FolderPicker: Textbox with a button to open a custom `FolderSelectDialog`.
+```
 
-***Load Speed Related Changes***:  
-- Changed: Mod loading logic/model now is singlethreaded (again) but with merged preparing and initialising step. Will not interface/DI DLLs unused at runtime from disk.  
-- Added: Mod loader now caches whether mods can unload and/or have exports as part of `ModConfig.json`.  
-  - This change is what allows for preparing and initialising to be done in one step.  
+Example usage:
 
-***CI/CD***
-- Builds produced by CI should now hopefully be more deterministic.  
+```csharp
+[DisplayName("Int Slider")]
+[Description("This is a int that uses a slider control similar to a volume control slider.")]
+[DefaultValue(100)]
+[SliderControlParams(/* Settings here */)]
+public int IntSlider { get; set; } = 100;
 
-***Other***
-- Loader: Now prints unsuccessful attempts at calls to GetController API.  
+[DisplayName("Double Slider")]
+[Description("This is a double that uses a slider control without any frills.")]
+[DefaultValue(0.5)]
+[SliderControlParams(minimum: 0.0, maximum: 1.0)]
+public double DoubleSlider { get; set; } = 0.5;
+
+[DisplayName("File Picker")]
+[Description("This is a sample file picker.")]
+[DefaultValue("")]
+[FilePickerParams(title:"Choose a File to load from")]
+public string File { get; set; } = "";
+
+[DisplayName("Folder Picker")]
+[Description("Opens a file picker but locked to only allow folder selections.")]
+[DefaultValue("")]
+[FolderPickerParams(/* Settings here */)]
+public string Folder { get; set; } = "";
+```
+
+### Added Localization for Traditional Chinese (TW)
+
+@EditorKos contributed a localization for `zh-TW` locale.
+
+### Fixes
+
+- Mod Packs can now use custom `ReleaseMetadataFileName(s)`. (thanks @jroweboy)
+- Mods from GameBanana which specify custom additional contributors/authors no longer breaks mod search.
+  - GameBanana (probably unintentionally) made a change to how one of the fields is returned.
+  - And that broke things... so I added a workaround.
+  - I also need to update the cache server; please give it a moment after the update goes live.
