Redbot 3.5.0 (2023-05-04)
=========================

| Thanks to all these amazing people that contributed to this release:
| :ghuser:`AAA3A-AAA3A`, :ghuser:`aikaterna`, :ghuser:`alexratman`, :ghuser:`AntonioNarra`, :ghuser:`Arman0334`, :ghuser:`Dav-Git`, :ghuser:`Drapersniper`, :ghuser:`Flame442`, :ghuser:`Honkertonken`, :ghuser:`i-am-zaidali`, :ghuser:`Jackenmen`, :ghuser:`japandotorg`, :ghuser:`karlsbjorn`, :ghuser:`keqking`, :ghuser:`Kowlin`, :ghuser:`Kreusada`, :ghuser:`Kuro-Rui`, :ghuser:`leetfin`, :ghuser:`npc203`, :ghuser:`palmtree5`, :ghuser:`PredaaA`, :ghuser:`Predeactor`, :ghuser:`TrustyJAID`, :ghuser:`Vexed01`, :ghuser:`yuansheng1549`

Read before updating
--------------------

#. ``[p]bankset`` is now a core command and as a consequence, the bank cog has been removed. This means that when you start the bot for the first time after the update, you'll see a "Failed to load package bank" message. That is perfectly normal and this message can be ignored.
#. Red 3.5 comes with breaking changes for users. Look at `Backward incompatible changes in Red 3.5 document <incompatible-changes-3.5>` and `End-user changelog <important-350-1>` for full details.

    Note that because this release also comes with breaking changes for developers,
    the cogs you're currently using will likely not work with the new release
    until you update (and that's *if* they have been updated).

    `Our update instructions <update_red>` include instructions on how you can safely update
    your bot and cogs from versions before 3.5. **Make sure** that you look at the instructions
    for **the version you currently have**, not the version you're updating to.

    Note that any cogs that have not yet been updated will likely not work
    until their author releases an update.

#. Red 3.5 comes with breaking changes for cog developers. Look at `Backward incompatible changes in Red 3.5 document <incompatible-changes-3.5>` and `Developer changelog <important-350-2>` for full details.
#. Fedora 35 and Debian 10 (Buster) are no longer supported as they have already reached their end of life.
#. On x86-64 systems, we now require that the CPU supports x86-64-v2 instruction set. This roughly translates to us dropping support for Intel CPUs that have been released before 2009 and AMD CPUs that have been released before 2012.

    If you experience any issues when trying to configure it, you can join `our discord server <https://discord.gg/red>`__ and ask in the **support** channel for help.
#. Information for Audio users that are using an external Lavalink instance (if you don't know what that is, you should skip this point):

    - Red 3.4.10 uses a new Lavalink jar that you will need to manually update from `our GitHub <https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Lavalink-Jars/releases/tag/3.3.2.3_1233>`__.
    - We've updated our `application.yml file <https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot/blob/3.4.10/redbot/cogs/audio/data/application.yml>`__ and you should update your instance's ``application.yml`` appropriately.

Read before updating
--------------------

#. This release fixes a security issue in Mod cog. See `Security changelog below <important-341-2>` for more information.
#. This Red update bumps discord.py to version 1.5.1, which explicitly requests Discord intents. Red requires all Privileged Intents to be enabled. More information can be found at :ref:`enabling-privileged-intents`.
#. Mutes functionality has been moved from the Mod cog to a new separate cog (Mutes) featuring timed and role-based mutes. If you were using it (or want to start now), you can load the new cog with ``[p]load mutes``. You can see the full `Removals changelog below <important-341-1>`.
#. Information for Audio users that are using an external Lavalink instance (if you don't know what that is, you should skip this point):

   We've updated our `application.yml file <https://github.com/Cog-Creators/Red-DiscordBot/blob/3.4.1/redbot/cogs/audio/data/application.yml>`__ and you should update your instance's ``application.yml`` appropriately.
   Please ensure that the WS port in Audio's settings (``[p]llset wsport``) is set to the port from the ``application.yml``.

Read before updating
--------------------

#. Red 3.2 dropped support for the MongoDB driver. When updating your instance from an older version, be sure to use instructions for **your current version** from the `document about updating Red <update_red>` to be able to still start your instance after the update.
#. Red 3.2 requires Python 3.8.1 or newer. In order to be able to update, you'll first have to install appropriate versions of your dependencies so be sure to use instructions for **your current version** from the `document about updating Red <update_red>`.

   .. note::

      You may get a notification from the downloader cog about needing to refetch dependencies.
      This is expected and it will walk you through everything and do as much as it can for you.

#. Red 3.2 comes with improvements which required breaking changes for 3rd party cogs. When you update to 3.2, your cogs may not be compatible if the author has not handled
   the changes yet. If you're a cog creator, you can look at `Developer changelog <important-320-1>` for full details.
