Packet Sender would like to thank these sponsors for this release:

• IWL.com
• NagleCode.com
• Eletiope.com
• John Huntington

A long-requested feature has finally been added:

• Smarter smart responses. You can now match incoming data using:
  • Exact Match
  • Contains
  • Starts With
  • Ends With

Also included in this update:

• Network ID is shown in subnet calculator
• Upgraded Qt libraries (now using Qt 6.9)
• Security reporting method (on GitHub)

Note: This is mostly a re-release of 8.8.2 that fixes problems found in the installer and a handful of other edge cases. If the previous installer worked, you are still good.

Packet Sender would like to give a big THANK YOU to @IsraelShushan for the commits for DTLS. The only reason Packet Sender has DTLS support in this release is thanks to his hard work.

Also, thank you to IWL, Eletiope, and NagleCode for the continued sponsorship for these releases. If you would like to see your name/company mentioned in each release, please contact me.

Changelog:

• DTLS
  • For now, it is in the GUI only
  • Only Windows installations are shipped supporting it.
  • For Linux, you must compile by source using Qt6.
• Dark Mode is now automatic based on your system settings (for most OSes)
• Save traffic log as *.csv
• All servers except UDP are now default off (Firewall warnings now only appear when first enabled).
• Windows and Mac upgraded to Qt 6.8.0
• HTTP URLs can now be pasted into the address field, and the parser will reduce it to the host
• Various bug fixes

Happy sending (and receiving!)

Withdrawn. There was a bug in the Windows installer and portable version. Therefore, this release has been withdrawn. A new one will be released shortly. If this release is working for you, you may continue using it. No need to downgrade. The next one will be compatible.
