It's still there, only the bar has vanished from an update to the librarys. I didn't get time to try and put it back so will have a look tonight.

Just swipe from the left side of the screen and it should appear.

I'll try and get a build running for you mate but it'll be a wp8.1 app which will run on wm10. Hope that's okay with you and when I get some time I'll try and get wm10 build running.


Thanks for taking my suggestion into consideration :) No problem, it's just that a native UWP W10 app would run also on PCs and tablets for example, so more people would use it without having to resort to the webpage.

This is really awesome that someone is finally doing this. I've been pestering Kazade to add browser notifications for Chrome

Would there be a way to see a Windows x86 build? Any plans for iOS?

That would be a lot of work, but this I know will greatly expand the community and propel the scope of what the Dreamcast can do passed where it ever got when Sega was in charge

Again bravo for implementing this, it's long overdue. We'll probably see every game server with people online at all times a few months or a year after all the different platforms are completed. This is how we go mainstream

They don't currently, I need to finish the server side to hook into pushing them but everything else is done. They will send you a notification when someone new comes online.

The current app is build in xamarin forms, which allows for a shared codebase across WM/WP, Android and IOS. I could also use the shared code to make a UWP build but there would be some serious work needed to keep up with all these different apps plus the backend service that is powering the app atm. It would be better if someone could do these devices, but it would be too time consuming for me to do 5 different versions ui wise :)

I'll try and get the windows phone build running tonight.

Yeah I feel the same about expanding the community with this, kinda of making a mini Xbox Live is my ambitious goal. Everyone who can help, please do.

If you add sound effects, add the BIOS 'select' sound effect for push notifications 8-)
