If they are not yet marked in the database ss custom then this would be easily fixed by assigning them as custom images again in the latest build. Not?

There is no easy way to mark the image as custom except setting it again. But yeah I was just warning that it could happen again since the database might have some games with this bugged image url that should've been set to custom

Hey! Just tried the new beta, and I'm getting this error when refreshing (importing seems to work as intended):
Is the problem between the chair and the keyboard?

Did you enable any option in the proxy section of the settings? If so, might be you entered the proxy settings wrong. If not, might be a third party involved in your connection setup blocking access to my api for some reason. Maybe an antivirus blocking connections to new domains with no prior reputation, or same from the internet provider. Or could just be the antivirus blocking the app from accessing the internet at all. Try disabling antivirus, changing DNS settings to use cloudflare's 1.1.1.1 or try on another network.

No real reason not to use the beta if you ask me. I'm busy for another few days with uni then I should be able to make a release. Need to update mentions of how refreshing works since it changed dramatically.

I managed to reproduce crash the second, third, and fourth time
I obviously don't use the program that way, but that's how I can get a crash. When I had crashes before I noticed that they often happen when I did some action in the program and switch between tabs. So I decided to try this. The video is short because the servers do not allow more. Here, it took me about 2 minutes to crash, the previous time it took about 3-4 minutes.

i see, nothing makes it particularly obvious what the issue would be. only thing i can think of is that the memory corruption that causes the sorting issues to begin with just happens to corrupt another piece of memory on your system, which leads the process to a panic as it does not know what to do with the overwritten bad memory.
as a sidenote, im wondering if maybe this memory corruption is somehow related to the "independent views" setting. maybe imgui is has a bug keeping track of the separate tables, idk. ill have to do more testing.
maybe try looking in windows event viewer or something like that. when processes crash there should be a record of it somewhere in windows, but im not a windows guy so idk where. a crash dump would be best but idk if windows does those, even just knowing what the crash is (like segmentation fault or bad access) could help.

ive noticed some weird things happening last few days, 2 games i had tracked got the last updated date changed without an update (games that have been completed/abandoned for years), so they showed up at the top of my list. i noticed that the mod had changed the "thread updated" value, but not the "release date" value. i assume that usually the "thread updated" value is changed when the thread is updated with a new game update, not for smaller edits to OP, but apparently some mods change the date anyway. i have changed the cache api to prefer using "release date" instead of "thread updated" from the OP. all games will slowly be parsed with this change over the next week as the cache expires, let me know if this produces unexpected results. it was using "thread updated" because that sounded like it means game updates, while "release date" sounded like when the game originally released, and i dont see a specific guideline about this in f95zone game posting rules/template, but from what i can see usually "release date" refers to when a certain update that is posted to f95zone was originally published by the author, not when the game as a whole was originally released. so i think that this behavior is acceptable, and will prevent "fake updates" from showing up when mods edit the thread updated date without an update.
as for the issue you mentioned here, where the mods dont update these dates at all, idk if anything can be done about that.
EDIT: although, i just realized that it could also happen that a game is updated but the update is not published to f95zone until months later, and this change would mean the udpated date shows as long ago even though you get the notification now... idk what the best solution is then. ill keep this change for now and see what people think
auto-update for public release is already a thing
beta most likely will not as it requires github account

I'm considering adopting a system similar to what I use for flipper stuff however. Since with the cache api I now have a server dedicated to this project, I could easily also host a update indexer on it, which will serve a json of the latest versions, and gets built binaries sent to it by GitHub actions. Would make it trivial to have a beta update channel. But that's for after 11.0 release

Not sure what is going on here, but your caching server picked up the version change but not the Last Updated change:
Not just this game, but a few of them that I noticed.

But as you can see, the Last Updated date was changed on F95 but not in your cache. These were new versions, it picked up the new version number.
EDIT: so the opposite of what you described, although that is super annoying as well tbh
Then there is this one that will be on the top of the Last Updated list for quite awhile due to someone fat fingering the date.

well nothing i can do about that, the mod published the update and changed the date after. the api cached the new data, but the date was changed after. only place i can reliably get a last updated date is by fetching the whole thread, and this is not possible to do all the time. it monitors latest updates to detect other changes quicker, but that does not give a date or a time, it gives how long ago in human readable form, which i cant use either and it horribly rounded.But as you can see, the Last Updated date was changed on F95 but not in your cache.

tell them to fix it thenThen there is this one that will be on the top of the Last Updated list for quite awhile due to someone fat fingering the date.
and clearly theres something very wrong there anyway, because latest updates shows this one as updated 5 years ago. its not an issue on my end, something is going very wrong with that thread overall.
unfortunately we rely on humans here, and humans cannot be relied on, so have to make do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
EDIT: i asked sam if it would be possible to include an actual timestamp in latest updates, rather than just "1 day" ago. if that happens, ill change it to use this date when possible, otherwise fallback to "thread updated" or "release date" from thread if theyre detected, otherwise use the last time OP was edited.
for now i reverted it to how it was before, prefer "thread updated" before "release date", but still wouldnt fix the first issue you encountered, which (i assume) is a mod publishing an update before editing the date in OP. if we get a proper timestamp in latest updates, that shouldnt be an issue anymore

yea, thought about ways to do it, but is it worth it for beta?
theres the risk everyone on beta updates to a buggy release that breaks their db then good luck dealing with the fallout
one benefit would be so that everyone who is ok taking the risk will be on the latest so they can be your "beta testers", easier than asking them to manually update
