Changelog

v0.4.3 (Luscious Last)

A minor release to add support for Snowflake bridges and to fix a fatal bug which could crash ProxAllium, as well as a few other quality of life improvements.

You can now obtain ProxAllium via Chocolately, a package manager for Windows. It’s maintained by Stewart Cossey (big thanks!).

Additions

  • Added support for the Snowflake pluggable transport

  • Added an option to run Tor setup manually

Changes

  • Main window no longer hides when minimized, instead it hides when closed

Fixes

  • An out-of-bounds bug in Tor output handling code

v0.4.2 (Luscious Last)

This is a maintainence release with some updates to how ProxAllium is packaged, I no longer wish to package Tor along with ProxAllium for various reasons, mainly that I was no longer using ProxAllium in Windows myself and it was getting harder to keep track of new Tor releases and push an updated package everytime.

I understand that it has been a while since the last release, but many things have happened since. I now have a full-timeish job that keeps me busy and I have also switched to Linux as my main operating system a while ago. The good news is that I have been working on a cross-platform version of ProxAllium, the progress is slow due to myself not being very experienced at writing a program in C and interacting with the system on a lower level…​ and also my job takes most of my time.

Additions

  • A new interactive guide for setting up Tor

  • A new setting to define the path for obfs4 pluggable transport in the configuration file

Changes

  • Tor is no longer packaged along with ProxAllium

v0.4 (Luscious Last)

(Thanks to my dear friend TheSaint for suggesting the name for this release)

This will probably be the first and final stable release of ProxAllium written in AutoIt. I am planning to rewrite it in C so that it can take advantage of various thing which cannot be done in AutoIt. This was challenging to accomplish and I learned many new things about AutoIt and programming, it maybe a while before I start working on the cross-platform C version as I am busy with work and life these days. Thank you to everyone who has used ProxAllium!

Additions

  • ProxAllium now directly communicates with Tor. This means Tor is handled properly and opens up more possibilities!

  • Support for bridges with pluggable transports obfs (all versions) and scramblesuit, GUI included for configuration

  • Support for HTTP tunnel

  • Added documentation for all INI options

  • Added an option to start with Windows

  • Added an option to start minimized

  • Added an option to regenerate Tor configuration

  • Added an option to switch to clean Tor circuits

Fixed and changes

  • Tor Output now resets after starting Tor instead of resetting everytime Tor stops or crashes

  • Paths from configuration (config.ini) are no longer converted to absolute paths internally, this prevents use of absolute paths in the generated torrc file which may cause portability issues

v0.3-beta (GUI Goodness)

Finally out of alpha! :)

Additions

  • New GUI with buttons, text fields, menubar, status indicator etc.

  • Added "Hostname"

  • Added Tray Tips (ProxAllium will notify you about Tor)

  • Added multi-instance detection (ProxAllium will detect if it is already running)

Fixes and changes

  • Closing the Tor Output window will no longer prompt to stop Tor

  • AsciiDoc is used instead of Markdown

  • Fixed crashing if Tor was not initialized properly

  • Tor is handled better internally (ProxAllium can detect crashes now)

  • config.ini uses relative paths instead of absolute paths which can cause problems in a portable environment (Fixes #1)

  • UPX is no longer used to compile ProxAllium, this should reduce anti-virus false positives.

  • More minor internal changes

Changes independent of ProxAllium’s code

  • New website with documentation, screenshots, webchat etc!

v0.2-alpha (Featury Feast)

Additions

  • ProxAllium.exe now has its Product Version property filled

  • Added ability to show Error/Warning messages made by Tor

  • Added ability to Stop/Start Tor without restarting ProxAllium!

  • Added ability to auto-generate config.ini (Therefore there is no need to pack config.ini in the release packages)

  • Added support for HTTP(S) and SOCKS4/5 proxies (No GUI yet to configure these though)

Fixes and changes

  • Fixed a lot of bugs (including the bug where ProxAllium was not stopping Tor when exiting)

  • Optimisation and cleanup

  • Updated README.md and CREDITS.md

  • Changed the internal structure/workings/design of ProxAllium

  • Changed some text to be more meaningful

  • Changed Tor’s data directories location (You can now delete the data directory in Tor/data if you are upgrading)

  • Tor Output Window no longer asks for confirmation if Tor has already exited

  • ProxAllium no longer prompts to exit after closing Tor

(You can also view the complete code changes across the previous release if you want)
