What does this mean for future game information updates? Are you still going to handle that or will the new dev need to take over? If the new dev is taking over, are you going to continue doing it while they write the new client?
Guessing the metadata server will continue to run like it currently is.
The new client that is currently in the works in Hydrus95 that is talked about in the discord and got its own .
That will NOT have its own metadata server unless tid is keeping his metadata server up for us or not.
H95 will be local scraping only but will have options to export and import metadata down the line.
It can handle huge volumes of metadata updates at once cause of how F95 lays out the data for us.

We still don't know if H95 is the client that will see progress or if there is something new tid and KJ16609 will work on together in a new repo.
H95 is taking shape so far and just got the ability to edit its metadata the other day.

The current plan for tid will be to document the old GL database layout so we can make scripts to convert it to the new client.

I have 2 months before I quit my actual job, so I'll try to release one update while I can to fix things and add a feature to export your data. After this, I'll let the server run as long as needed. But I won't be able to release new updates. (the price of a windev license is around 900€, I won't buy it ;) )

the metadata server needs windev aswell? well that sucks.
Would be nice to keep it around as a very rarely accessed fallback to local scraping for the deleted threads. but i guess we can do something with a github repo or something for that.

It's funny coming across this thread because I was looking for a program to manage all the games. Im a .net developer and it would be pretty easy to set up a program to manage local content in windows. I wouldnt mind throwing some time at this if people are interested. Ill play with some ideas this weekend and get a github repo up.

Join the discord, we are all there talking about it often. Or take a look at the Hydrus95 github which is what is getting progress currently.

You could always use F95Checker, same concept and a nice replacement for when development on this comes to an end.

With no game file management? no folder sorting at all? needing to curate your own folders? no thanks. I don't even want to see or touch any folders.

Hydrus95 is shaping up real good and will be much more power user focused.

tid could we get an export tool for GL into a format we can process?
Export to json or something?
The Atlas team (there is two of them now) looked at it but its not easy as expected.

And yeah, Hydrus95 is now Atlas

Nice tool! it's cool to see that, even if you will not be able to maintain it, you are finding dev(s) to keep it running.
Cheer!

End of next week is whats aimed for. But we will see.
Please join the Discord if you use that to follow progress. An F95 thread will be made with the release.
Yeah I already joined but just wasn't actively following it.

cool, will be happy to test it once it's out.

GL is windows only, but Atlas which other devs are making will have both Windows and Linux support out of the gate. They are getting close to the 1.0 release now.
You guys know by chance on how i can get a dc account without a phone number?

Last time i checked, a phone number is not required at all. If you are using the mobile app then try to sign up on the website with an email instead. We do not have phone verification on the server but the user needs verifying their email before they can post to combat bots.

Issue is that I am running everything f95 and other related things via a vpn, and because of that it requires a number

i see, that sucks. well we will make a thread once we have F95 parsing fully working on the release. shouldn't take that long after the first 1.0 release.
