Update highlights

This update contains a lot of fixes that improve the overall experience with the tool and should resolve many of the reported issues I received.
Besides many small additions, this update also contains some big new additions that I will highlight below.

Crash fixes, fixes and more fixes

Thanks to all reports the past weeks, many of the issues that people experienced got fixed with this update. Including many things that possibly caused game crashes.
Please keep in mind I am not able to fix the crashes and issues caused by loading too many .YMT files in the latest game DLC / update. This limit has to be increased either bei R Games themselves on the next updates or by the multiplayer platform of your choice.

Anyway I have added an option that disables the generation of extra .YMTs that are needed to make high heels, cutting hairs and other stuff possible. Using this can help you shrink down the amount of .YMT files generated, but will make the listed features not work anymore.

See this wiki article for more information regarding the game *.YMT limit

Addon Tattoos

This update introduces the first version of being able to easily manage your addon tattoos with the tool. By pressing Add in the tool, you will receive a list of options which now include "Add tattoo". Tattoos can be created from whatever image file you prefer; *.png, *.jpg, *.dds, *.tga, *.bmp or even .ytd files from already existing tattoos. The tool will automatically optimize your tattoo images for the game and create all needed files that are needed. In the game the item Name will represent the tattoo hash / name and the collection name is represented by the name you have gave the collection in the build window.

Item warnings

From now on you will see possible warnings for your cloth items in form of an exclamation mark directly in front of the related item. This helps finding cause of issues ahead of time faster and more reliable.

Build progress bar & cancel builds

To improve the cloth building experience I have added a build progress indicator, which will give you detailed information about the current state of build and the possibility to cancel the build at any time. Additionally the application remains responsive at any time.

Cloth physics & Audio presets

You can now add related *.YLD files for your clothes, which basically describe physics movement for your clothes.
Additionally I have added the possibility to the define an audio preset for your clothes. You will be able to select from all the currently existing audio presets for your drawable type of choice. This will for example change the sound of your shoes when you are walking to proper high heel sounds and similar.
