Tool Others F95Checker [WillyJL]

[WillyJL]

Got an instance where a game was clearly updated on a later date, but the tool doesn't seem to recognize it.

It was definitely updated more recently than 20/10/2022.

what GrammerCop said. i use the "Thread updated" text value from the OP when it is available because the threads could be edited for other reasons like adding mod links and so on, so the date put there manually by the moderators is usually more accurate / useful

Hi Willy,

I've been getting this error on startup of the checker.

Spoiler: Error

Did something change with the file locations because that is not where I installed it.

Send me you imgui.ini file and delete it, that should solve it

Also those paths are not on your pc, they are where the files were on the GitHub server when it was compiled into an exe, so it keeps those paths since they don’t actually exist on your pc, they are embedded in the exe

I don't know if it's possible but it would be cool to add icons to the "F95Checker Browser Addon" that would show which games were added to the "F95Checker" program

not to get yall too hyped or anything but im working on a lil something


clearly still needs some work with the alignments and style, and also needs to work on the latest updates page which it currently doesnt, but hey the main functionality is working so should be easy from here

NICE !

should be about done!






now it isnt perfect, i dont want to add every single classname and detection methods for where to add the icons, so i made a pretty simple system. it looks all over the page for links that point to threads, and if you have them in your list it selects them for the icon. problem is for example in the thread lists you see there are small dates next to each title, and also page numbers, and they are all technically thread links so it would add icons for all of them, and it would end up like a mess. so what i did is i made it detect if the link is related to an image (homepage slideshow and latest updates page) and if so it adds the icon no matter what and with a different style (to be in corner of image), if instead it doesnt detect its an image it will only add the icon before the name if the link points to /unread on the thread. like for example the clickable dates next to links point to /latest, the page links point to /page-123, usually only the titles point to /unread. this also means however that some titles might not be detected. i did make an exception for the thread page titles however, as you can see yourself.

i dont think i can update the extension right now to let you try it out because it requires the new changes i made to the tool itself, so it would break the extension for other users. if you want you could load the extension from sourcecode (i know on chrome you can "load unpacked")

I've got another one:

Cause you're talking about the browser extension right now:
i got a strange situation with waterfox (in /home) on linux (extension installed from mozilla). It happens the plugin does nothing anymore if the browser isn't closed properly (like via kill -9, hard shutdown/powerloss or if waterfox crashes). I have to reinstall it to get it working again, disabling via the add-on page doesn't help. I would like get you console logs, but with 400+ tabs it seems unlikely to find the right data for you.
Might be a lock that doesn't get cleared after crashing as it remains that way till reinstall, no matter how often (tried up to 5 times) the browser/system is restarted.

Probably what happened is that the title was changed, so the tool picked up other update and checked the page, but that date was still the old one. Then by the time you noticed it was changed on the website but as the “about the speed” section in OP tells you it wasn’t on the tool. As always, either you wait up to a week for a full refresh to happen automatically for that game, or just right click > full recheck.

Not really sure to be honest. I do no locking or persistence with the extension. The current stable release is literally “click the button, it makes a local web request to the tool, then the tool does the rest”, it literally does nothing else, no state management, no persistence, nothing. The new version I’m working on is a little different, in the sense that it gets the list of game ids from the tool to edit the html and add icons, and then does the same thing when you click the button to add games, but again no persistence or locking. And the icon stuff is just a one off thing, when the page loads it scans for games and adds icons into the html, then nothing, no state saving or anything.

Okay, gonna file that as another corner-case on my system. Just good to know it's my fault (or waterfox... might kick my clean FF a few times after the next update to see if i can reproduce it that way )

Looks awsome!

 

[WillyJL]

Fuck google.

Sorry but nothing I can do, the extension won’t be on the chrome store anymore. Either you do the smart thing and switch to a Firefox based browser that doesn’t suck balls, or you’ll have to install the extension manually in developer mode on chrome from now on.

 

[lewdypie]

Yeah that's the world we live in.... No problems with violence, gambling, or freemium games (which are basically often hidden gambling apps) and so on..... but oh no, we have to protect people from porn..... because that is morally so much worse than everything else.....

Sorry for the rant...

if I understand correctly that the extension is updated, will it work in opera? before that it worked fine and adds links to the program.
If I did everything right, downloaded the chrome folder from the extension folder, installed it through the "Developer Mode", now it gives an error even when simply adding a link to the program, writes "could not connect to F95Checker! Is it open and updated! Is RPC enabled ?"

the extension is updated on main branch, yes. not yet released on the mozilla store, and on chrome as we established it wont ever be again. the fact that it gives you an alert saying it cant connect to the checker is good, the old extension did not have that type of alert, so it means you correctly installed the updated extension. however as i mentioned before the new extension requires a new rpc, and that is not yet released in a stable release, so youll have to use the beta of the checker too. i made a build just after pushing the new extension exactly because of this, so just check the FAQ if youre unsure on how to use the beta

i suggest you remove the extension you installed manually and use the new install method i put in the OP. it doesnt require developer mode this way

 

[WillyJL]

just released 9.6 with custom labels, kanban view, forum scores, icon pickers, and the new extension with library icons!

chrome extension is dead, you need to remove the one you had and follow the new install instructions in OP.

if you use the old extension with the new tool version, or the new extension with an old tool version they wont work. make sure to update them both!

hey, I'm using the latest version of brave and when I drag the crx into brave://extensions/ with developer mode, it lets me do it but it stays disabled and doesn't let me enable it, is there any way to load it unpacked?

weird... i just downloaded brave again and it works fine for me... although brave being brave they have to do things differently so there was more to it. so i added it, then i made sure it was enabled for private mode (just in case), then when you are on f95zone go to the extension icon in the toolbar and click the f95checker addon (brave denies access to all websites by default apparently, so you need to grant it access to this website like this). also another thing i noticed is that the icons for games in your library work properly only if you enable the "dark mode beta" theme on f95zone and you are logged in

I tried loading it unpacked from the source code and now it's working correctly
