📄 Description

Starting from version 0.12.0, the Qt version of the emulator will no longer receive direct updates.

However, the Qt interface remains available through the new official launcher:
shadps4-qtlauncher
– based on the original shadPS4 source code.

We recommend migrating to this launcher to continue receiving updates.

Previously, when no update was available, users would see the generic message:
"No download URL found for the specified asset."

Now, they will instead see the custom message from the screenshot, which makes the situation clearer and includes a clickable button to open the appropriate GitHub release page.

Note: This message only appears when the emulator fails to find a Qt version release on GitHub.

*This message was also translated into all languages.
