REVAMPED MOD BROWSER

Viper now has an a much better mod browser, not only is there more mods on screen but the same amount of useful information, there's actually even more information, not only that but there's also now an in-app browser, this means instead of opening the mod in your browser you can preview it right inside Viper, making your life easier.

We also now support mod dependencies, this means if a mod requires another mod to work properly it'll notify you, the user about it, you simply allow it to install the mods it requires and then it does that, nothing more, if a dependency is already installed it won't ask you about it, and it'll only need to install the mod itself.

Even though the above sounds cool and everything, there's a lot more, we've finally added the ability for you to load more than the standard 50 packages, this means if you're new to the community and you don't know any mods, you can simply scroll through and look at all the mods. And when you've reached the bottom of the list you simply load more mods, until you reach the absolute bottom.

And as if that wasn't enough, there's been many performance improvements, notably the mods now load a lot faster, they load in a far more smooth fashion, and before there was some bugs where filtering packages may lead to searches not actually giving back the 50 maximum packages, even though there's more than 50 packages matching the search and the filter.

Overall the mod browser is better than ever! And we hope you'll make good use of it/find it useful!
