We are making massive changes today.
When TriStar was first built, the most powerful tools—like the multi-track timeline and the Discord compressor—were locked behind a Pro paywall. But the goal of this software is to be the ultimate, frictionless tool for content creators and gamers. Friction is the enemy.
So, as of Update 0.1.0, the paywall is completely gone. Every single premium feature is now unlocked for everyone, forever.
Here is everything new in this massive update:
Upgrades & Changes:
- Everything is FREE: The store, license keys, and lock screens have been nuked. The Advanced Editor, Audio Routing, and Discord Compressor are fully unlocked.
- "Advanced Editor" Overhaul: The Studio Editor has been renamed and upgraded. You can now resize text overlays by directly clicking and dragging them on the preview screen, just like in a professional editor. We also added a Quick Color palette and high-contrast text outlines so your captions pop on any background.
- Natively Bundled Engine: TriStar now carries its own video rendering engine natively. If you download this on a fresh PC or laptop, it just works. No more crashes when trying to compress or render files.
- Smart Auto-Saving: Completely overhauled the saving logic. The app now defaults straight to your Windows
Videosfolder and automatically generates safe file names using timestamps so you never accidentally overwrite your old clips. - UI Tweaks: Cleaned up the button styling.
Enjoy the completely unlocked editor! Let me know what you think of the new text dragging tools in the comments.
