Statmat's folder doesn't seem to exist on the FTP anymore? (or the gdrive) I'd love those screenshot packs. (is this just a temporary thing? Or am I just really bad at looking?) Thanks!

Is there somewhere we can make suggestions for additions?

I wouldn't mind an automatic genre addition feature.

maybe something like, if a file exists called genre.xxxx in the slave folder,
when you scan/import new games, it'd add that slave withe the genre xxxx.

Save me having to manually update the genre for every game?

(And/or other launchers could make use of it too?)

That's a "common" problem of game launchers: they require download or adding meta-data manually. I was discussing with MrZammler and others the same problem with iGame... A solutio would be to use a database like HOL to download the info. but HOL lacks an API currently... Your idea that each "slave" include this meta-data is good too!

Cheers!

Yes, it seems that StatMat's folder is not available now. Maybe the mods could help with this?

I think it would be faster if Statmat's upload folder is made available again, or at least the tinylauncher stuff.

Obviously. But that may not be an option. Maybe it was removed on purpose, or he removed it himself?

Maybe someone else could upload it?

Ok, since I'm still an FTP admin and can see everything

I've downloaded all of the contents below:

...and now uploaded to /~Uploads/DamienD/StatMat for the time being (as my folder is public).

Going forward though; I'll ask Turran to make StatMat's folder public; as there's nothing dodgy there


I swear I'd done all this checking / cleaning stuff before someone had the bright idea to restore all ~Upload folders, but make them hidden...

What a waste of time going through the process of checking / cleaning was if the above was the final outcome; sigh

Turran has now made StatMat's ~Upload folder public

...so I've now deleted /~Uploads/DamienD/StatMat.

As it's now public again, I'd best keep it that way then!

Seriously though, thanks for the reshare.
