Tool XLibrary - Advanced Game Library Manager for F95Zone

can i add games from other site? if yes how to ?

Feature Request.
Add a setting that allows a different browser than the default to open links in X21.

In my case, Chrome is my default browser. I use Firefox for browsing F95 and use the X21 extension in Firefox. The problem is when I open a link in X21 it opens in Chrome (i.e., the default browner). This also breaks the app's updating of the game's status (updated or not).
Game Manager https://f95zone.to/threads/game-manager-2-17-12-7.9574/ had this feature.

Hi! Ability to select default browser to open links is good - I will add it to the roadmap. But what is x21 extension?

So this only works for f95zone games? there's no option to add games from dlsite or add a folder. plus you have to redownload everything as i have zero detections despite having a bunch of games? I can't find a way to add games at all besides that. cool idea but kind of wasted if you can only add f95zone games.

And it doesn't seem to automatically work through comments? alot of games don't get updated through the person who made the thread, so what do you do for something like that, like JSK games has like 100 games and edits throughout the comments.

I plan to add the ability to include custom games from non-f95 websites in the future updates. For now, updates are limited to f95 and only from the main post in thread

Hello and Thanks you for this usefull app .

I mostly use it to keep track of update , but not as an launcher since i don't download most games i follow until they're abandonned , finished , or if i didn't played them since years .

But your app is really cool , i don't have to check every single games every month to keep list up to date .

I also have some feature request to do : a place who write automaticaly the last version available for a game , another one to write automaticaly the installed Version of the game and a last one to manually write the last version we played (and who will automaticaly change if we launch the game in another version) .

i joined a pic to give you some ideas . View attachment 5343362

Thank you for your review! This feature does seem interesting, but I need to consider its UX. For now, you can use it with game comments - it includes a "version" field that you can modify if needed. I'll add your suggestion to the roadmap and see what can be done about it

Hey Detsu

I saw earlier you had mentioned that you were working on importing games from F95 Checker. If that's still in the pipeline, do you know how soon that may be? Really wanna give this a proper go, but I've got a bit of library on there that I don't want to have to start again.

Hey there again,
good to see you slowed down a bit.
I hope that means that my wish that you don't burn yourself out came true until now

Can you add the browser extension version number to the application info entry?
Currently it is 1.7.0

All the best,
the Oracle

Thank you for your concern! Actually, I just have less free time now, but I’m not planning to abandon the project. I’ll try to make updates whenever possible! Version 1.7.0 is now the latest version of the extension (I only update the version when it includes changes)

Aaaaaand. New version is here. If it's not too much trouble, please leave a rating and review about the app in the thread's review section.

Is there any plan to automatically identify installed games? Maybe a Drag and Drop.
I have all my games organized, with each folder name corresponding to its respective forum thread.
e.g.: "A Bitch JK In An RPG [v1.2] [Happy Life]"
I have over a thousand games. Yes, I'm a horny squirrel, so even good solutions result in adding them one by one being exhausting.
Would it be possible to do this with JSON?

And it's very important: Congratulations for that work man!

Thank you! I believe there’s a significant issue - if your folders don’t at least contain a thread ID, it becomes impossible to identify the game :'( However, I’m currently working on a "custom games" feature. Once it’s finished, we might explore something in this direction. That said, games imported as "custom" will still not be linked to f95 and won’t auto-update

can the folder names be used to search on f95 and then link the corresponding thread to it?

 

[Detsu Kai]

can the folder names be used to search on f95 and then link the corresponding thread to it?

Of course! If the game's name matches the one on f95zone, it’s not too difficult. You can create a script using ChatGPT or Cursor with Node.js/Python to scan your folders and search for the names on f95zone (https://f95zone.to/sam/latest_alpha/latest_data.php?cmd=list&cat=games&search=YOUR_GAME_NAME). However, be fair when doing this - limit your requests to one per second; otherwise, you risk being temporarily blocked (not your account, just your API access). The essential information required for importing into XLibrary is the game name and the f95 thread ID. Here's a preview of the data format that will be available in the next update, so you can start preparing your data accordingly:

[
  {
    "name": "Game Name",
    "externalLinks": [
      {
        "providerId": "f95zone",
        "externalId": "12345", // <- here just place instead of 12345 threadId
        "url": "https://f95zone.to/threads/thread.12345/" // <- Replace 12345 with threadId, ensuring no other changes are made
      }
    ]
  },
]

For some reason, I can only use the extension in Chrome; when I try it in other browsers, the program simply says that the update check failed.

Which one did you try?

 

[The Rogue Hero]

Which one did you try?

iv tried both

 

[Detsu Kai]

iv tried both

Wich both? Here is about 10 popular browsers except chrome and firefox)
This extension is developed exclusively for these two browsers, so I can't guarantee it will work on others (though it should, as most are Chromium-based).
