Announcement:
The Docker image and WebUI have been released. They are still in very early development and if you want to contribute please do so on the GitHub repo.

Also I may remove Gofile uploading or make it optional in the future due to the extremely limited time/life of each file.

Did you port it using the tool or did you download it from here?

For game issues please put them here. Also please attach a screen shot.

Coming from https://f95zone.to/threads/68528/post-13029473.

Hello again. I checked out your porter.

In my opinion, you should not distribute the ports with NWJS and instead let the user provide their own instead.
(This will make it not a port but just sharing game files though...)

Directory structure:
Code: 
tree -L 2
.
├── 68528 Tower of Ardia 2022-09-24
│     ├── Game
│     ├── package.json
│     ├── RJ283271_img_main.webp
│     └── www
└── NWJS
      ├── chrome_crashpad_handler
      ├── credits.html
      ├── icudtl.dat
      ├── lib
      ├── locales
      ├── nw
      ├── nw_100_percent.pak
      ├── nw_200_percent.pak
      ├── resources.pak
      ├── swiftshader
      ├── v8_context_snapshot.bin
      └── www
The www directory in the Game directory is the one that contains all the game files, while the one in the NWJS directory is empty and only act as a mount point.

The Game file:

Code: 
#!/usr/bin/env bash

if command -v fusermount > /dev/null 2>&1
then
    echo "FUSE found."
    www_dir=$(find . -type d -name "www" -print -quit)
    if [ -n "$www_dir" ]
    then
        echo "'www' directory found."
        cp ./package.json ../NWJS/package.json & wait $!
        echo "Mounting..."
        ../NWJS/lib/cicpoffs ./www ../NWJS/www
    fi
else echo "FUSE not found. Game will launch as case sensitive."
fi

if [[ "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" == "wayland" ]]
then
    echo "Launching as a Wayland application."
#     ../NWJS/nw --ozone-platform=wayland; # Performance degradation
    ../NWJS/nw --ozone-platform=x11
else echo "Launching as a X11 application."; ../NWJS/nw --ozone-platform=x11
fi
if command -v fusermount > /dev/null 2>&1
then
    www_temp=$(find ../NWJS -type d -name "www" -print -quit)
    if [ -n "$www_temp" ]
    then
        echo "Unmounting..." &
        fusermount -u ../NWJS/www & wait $!
        rm ../NWJS/package.json
    fi
fi
echo "Finished."
This reduce storage space significantly as user won't have multiple NWJS on their computer. NWJS can also be updated easily.

Tested working (on my machine).

I decided to include the nwjs files to make the experience as easy as possible for players. No setup needed, download and play. But I do see what you mean by how this wastes lots of disk space. I'll probably go with your solution and also have start.sh check ~/.nwjs/ for the nwjs files and if its not there then download it.

I will also start a poll later to see if others also think it's a good idea.

Sounds good. But please not another dot file. I have enough of them.
Maybe using '~/.local/share/porter/nwjs' and having an updater/version chooser is a better idea.

Also the way the original script handles MZ is not ideal. You should package MZ game files into the www directory like with MV instead.

Touch The Bio-Unit Lady [v1.01] [egig ere faundation], Using nwjs 0.83.0 caused major graphical issues with incorrect texures.
I've also seen a few things like missing background textures for some games but those are usually minor and not as extreme as the example above.

Maybe upgrading pixijs would fix it?

I'm playing it (not really, I don't know how to play this...) on NWJS v0.84 and there doesn't seems to be any issues, even before upgrading Pixi.

Nvm figured it out. Newer versions of nwjs weren't playing well with my laptops dual gpu setup. Will go with latest nwjs (0.84.0) as default now and users can change to 0.78.1 if they also run into the same issues.

I tested on a dual GPU laptop. I just don't use the dGPU at all because I just don't want to deal with Nvidia specific issues.

This looks really useful, but another thing I like included could be the MV/MZ text hooker for those who want to play japanese games, its the thing that takes the most work imo.
