Tool Others F95Checker [WillyJL]

ive noticed the sorting myself too, like 1 or 2 times total. i just cant find a consistent way to reproduce it so its hard to see whats happening. if you have a consistent way to reproduce it ill look into it

I'll try to pay attention better as well. Even though everything else is working, I still see the sort bug as well.

How to find the latest beta version -

1. Go to
   You must be registered to see the links
   and select Actions
   View attachment 4244202
2. Select the most recent workflow (1229 in this case)
   View attachment 4244204
3. Scroll down and select the Artifact that matches your OS to download the program
   View attachment 4244205
4. You will find a zip file within the zip file, extract the files to where you want to run the checker from. On first run it will create your datastore, etc. If upgrading it is a good idea to create a backup copy of your datastore first (the location is listed in the OP of this thread).

I have downloaded the latest beta version and it is ready to use. The update speed of the list is faster than the official version released in 2023. Previously, slow updates have been a problem for me. I am an overseas player using VPN and today I discovered a treasure trove. Thank you very much.

you didnt even read what he said. his message literally says "this is a change from F95 that Willy is working on". you cant even read 11 words, no wonder you skipped reading the explanation in the recent messages.

It mostly happens when I'm marking updated games as installed. Might have been some other occurences too, but not significant enough for me to remember.

Noticed it too, tried to debug but it seems almost impossible, hard to reproduce + costant refresh of imgui part.
I'm now using tabs with separate sort settings, thought it was related somehow. Sometimes I caught it during regular update, sometimes after adding game with full refresh, sometimes when I moved games from one tab to another.

Does the Played checkmark not update the last played date?

It will update if you link the .exe and then play it through F95Checker.

This naming is fixed in beta versions and upcoming 11.0 version. Instead of played it's now called finished, indicating that you have finished playing all the content.

Any ETA for a "stable" version that has the current API problem fixed or should I go with the beta version? (I'm probably not helpful with beta testing)

 

[Wolfram99]

Is there a way to manually fix release dates?
Some new releases don't have the proper date written on the first post of a game.

Some kind of check if the update is just received by F95Checker, but the release date is like 6 months before, so it would treat the day it received the update as the release date.

writing to mods all the time that they should fix the Game updated field is not always feasible.

Beta is pretty much ready for release, missing some few small fixes but it is more than fine for daily usage. No point not using beta

beta doesn't mean unstable

If i refresh and close the pop-up without giving it much thought, then i sometimes forget that the game had a release since it stayed in the middle of the list.

I see these all the time and it is very annoying - but I don't want to be a pest and report these constantly. So I have learned to just live with it, and since you overriding the date would prevent it from syncing you should too.

an alternative solution is to change your sorting mode. what i do is this:

that way, the order in the list is
- more content to play in installed version, update available
- more content to play in installed version, latest version is installed
- finished playing installed version, update available
- finished playing installed version, latest version is installed
- never marked finished playing, update available
- never marked finished playing, latest version is installed
- never marked finished playing, never installed
its a more logical order to do things in, and new updates will mean than an update is available (as per installed checkbox) and will move closer to the top of the list with this sorting mode

How do i port my current f95checker version to the new beta version with all my games and settings?

Below is something to look at with humor and perhaps for personal entertainment:

[Optionally and just for fun]
You may add a SQL query parser to the Input-Bar.
For Example: SELECT * FROM F95_CHECKER WHERE 'tags' LIKE "milf" AND 'rating' >= 4

grey is given and should not be parsed, green = playground.


PS: I know, doors wide open for Injections, but it's the own local db, so... why not to hav some SQL fun?
Some may use this to skrew up their own db by using subqueries. Well, some professionals may do like using SQL for self hurting as well (sarc), so...
No pain, no game.

If some may like to use this tool to take the first steps into SQL, so it may be. "Welcome"!

It's like "NTR XOR 'Optional'" //sarc/

How ever: Using the Input-Bar also for SQueries would be "aaaawesome" nerdy. (Prio fun = null)

Follow these directions to install the upgrade, but place the unzipped files into the same location as the existing installation. Be sure to backup your database first (as in instructions).

EDIT: PS don't do what I did and forget to quit the application first.

WhiteVanDaycare I can't select/click on the any of the artifacts? probably my dumbass doing something wrong, but I tried with mutliple builds (started with 1241) and none seem to be downloadable?

Actually, thinking about it further.

I wish there was an additional date variable that measured "date on which a changed version was retrieved by my instance of F95checker".
and an option to use that date variable instead of the thread's date variable for the purpose of determining the "last updated" display column.

To give an example.
lets say on 2024-11-11 a new update is released.
You retrieve the updated page 1 day after it was released. on 2024-11-12
Mods forgot to change change the date and it still says 2024-05-05

Normally, F95checker would retrieve a new version of that thread. but keep the "last updated" date as 2024-05-05.

With the changed variable retrieval date method though, it will instead show 2024-11-12 as the date for that thread. as that is when your computer last retrieved an update for it. It is off by 1 day, which is better than being off by 6 months.
The more uptime you get with checker, the more accurate this other date will be.

----

Also, I don't think changing the update date variable would prevent updates from being retrieved as I have seen plenty of time when an update was retrieved with the same date as before. the last updated info that is retrieved from the thread itself is not how it determines if you need to re-retrieve a page.
in fact, you can only determine what the "last update" date is after you already retrieve the page. as this is data found within the thread itself

something like this is planned. not with sql syntax as that can be tedious to use, and also the tool only uses sqlite to store data but keeps everything in ram and indexes game objects by reference in ram. an old fork by littleraisins, f95checkerx, had a function similar to this and i eventually want to either take inspiration from it or make my own equivalent. what im thinking of is similar to the github search bars, where you can just search for text, but also add filters like type:renpy for example.
