Re: DreamPi Companion is over. Goodbye.
You didn't have to delete the sourceforge..... Can you please reupload the latest versions? I was only able to grab the linux version... At least in PM please.

Re: DreamPi Companion is over. Goodbye.
This is in reply to the last two posts:
1. The Sourceforge is empty because the latest version released is broken, as I've stated previously. There is literally no point in downloading something that cannot do what's advertised and I don't want to offer something, with my name on it, that fails as such - The favorites feature is currently completely borked.
2. It wasn't a rage delete. I'm just not going to offer a broken product as again, 2.2 is out-of-nowhere broken.
3. Personally, I don't support open source. I never use or participate in open source and I certainly won't publicize spaghetti code in particular - Total crime.
4. If someone wants to continue using DreamPi, hopefully someone still has 2.1 latest patch. Impossible for me to re-compile as I've upgraded by NGinstall as well as my personal toolsets for other projects since 2.1, and also, 2.1 for me is incomplete as I don't have backups of 0.015CURL and again, does not support my new toolsets. --- As i've previously stated, the code base for favorites literally hasn't changed, so I don't know how or why it's broke. I wasted 3 hours fiddling with 2.3 (experimental w/ gundam support) and no dice. DreamPi is most likely dead unless I randomly wake up at 2:AM with an idea.
5. I am still looking into a fix. While I've very fed up with myself for overall publicizing and continually maintaining terrible code instead of doing a re-write, I can't really ever abandon one of my own projects and I know I won't. But unless I, again, come up with a solution, don't expect DPC to be available unless someone has a 2.1.x version and is reupping it.

Re: [Suspended] DreamPi Companion
As of 6/12/2020, DPC (all versions) is incompatible with the current DCOnline API. I am aware of this.
The best course of action is still being determined as DPC undergoes reworking during it's suspension.

Re: [Suspended] DreamPi Companion

Discord is pretty dead, so how about we publicize some concepts.
This is still very early, and incomplete. This image is a concept, not an actual implementation. And yes, the mistakes are intentional; placeholders.
Thoughts, anyone?

Re: [Suspended] DreamPi Companion
Yes, DPC is currently under suspension, due to a fatal bug and being impossible to manage in it's current state. As of yesterday, all versions are broken due to a massive overhaul of the Dreamcast.Online API. I'm keeping in touch with Kazade, the author of DreamPi, as he adds features and refines the website API.KmusDC wrote:Hello friend, this is amazing, where could I download a version that works? at least version 2.0 for windows? the file is not on the official page
In other words, even if someone has a working backup of DreamPi, it will not function; Just crash. The API isn't supported in any version.
DPC will have to get re-worked, but not in it's current state.
It is time for phase 2.
