HypersomniacLive: Ha, posted after being called out on it, typical scum reaction. Voting time? ;-P
I think you'll find I was writing it as you posted :P
But I'm clearly scum (I always am), though judging by the Secret Santa thread you'd be hard pressed to get enough votes to lynch anyone other than trent right now ;)

But I'm just generally at a bit of a loss. I've been trying to find a better way to do the games per page so it works no matter how many games you have but I'm struggling to find something that works... ditto with the legacy covers..

HypersomniacLive: But are you trying to find a way?! Are you?!? It's not like you're playing in a mafia game now, so what's your excuse, mister? ;-P

I guess you need a VPS with Linux?
There are some mini-VPS from 3$/year that maybe could help the library of our dreams to come alive?

Would donate for it!

Adalia, if you need a VPS, you can look at www.vpsville.com. This is the one I use for MaGog, but it's a lot more expensive than $3 a year.

Their cheapest plan is, I think, USD 8 (UKP 5) a month. The one I use for MaGog costs USD 25 (UKP 15) a month.

The 3$/year is for a mini-VPS with shared IP, that I thought it could be enough for the use it would have.
I'm no expert, thought.

I'm not sure... I think all I should need is an SSL Certificate so I can connect by HTTPS, and it's probably easier to buy one of those then a VPS package... I'm hoping I can get this free one working, though if not if people are willing to donate towards the cost that would certainly make it a bit easier..

Unfortunately I can't help you, but thankfully it looks like others are able and willing.

And we have an update!

I've implemented an automatic system that should find the missing legacy box arts. It's not fully implemented yet, but it should start notifying me and finding the urls and once I'm sure it's working I can merge them into the main list and it should mostly maintain itself after that.

So if anyone with some missing box art in their account could update the script and let me know what happens; are there any errors, do the covers still show, etc.

Then I can check if it's working on my end and as long as it is I can start using the images to update the list and there should be no more missing box art.

Yay!

Updated.

Checked my library. The following titles are missing box covers:
- Card City Nights
- Krynn (x 3 boxes)
- Dark Sun (x2 boxes)
- Darksiders II: Deathinitive Edition
- King Arthur Collection (x2 boxes)
- Never Alone
- Pathologic Classic HD
- Ravenloft (x2 boxes)
- Runestone Keeper
- Shantae
- Warhammer 40K: Rites of War
- Wasteland 2: Director's Cut

All the rest look OK.

Bah. It hasn't updated my list with anything...

Right, not quite working yet. Will have another look tomorrow and see why not.

Thanks mrkgnao :)

Saw this, got excited, updated, and now I don't have a working library anymore. :(

First off, if I don't allow bigpizzapies.com then I only get the default GOG style (would have been nice if you had mentioned this upfront, and spared me the trouble of researching it in order to allow it).

After I allow it, I get what you see in the attached screenshot. The only option displaying anything for me is "Legacy", for which I can switch between "Black" and "Wood", none of the others work, not even the default GOG one.

Before falling back to v.1.2.0, do you want me to do any sort of tests?

Sorry.. :(

Hmmm. Where did you need to allow it? (It's just my website, where I'm now hosting the LegacyUrl list)
Is it a separate plug-in / add-on that is blocking things?
I've I'd known that would be a problem I would have mentioned it...

That is very odd.. it shouldn't have any effect on the non-Legacy styles... Are you getting any errors in the console?

Back to the drawing board then...


Edit: But in other news... the list of missing ids is now showing up.... very curious.

I know it's your site.. now! :-)
I need to allow it in NoScript ( my default setting is forbid javascript, and allow it on a case-by-case basis).

Attached is the console, first one with the style set to Legacy, second one with it set to default GOG. The errors are the same, just including the second one to show you what I mean by no style displaying.

It's not actually Javascript... well, I suppose it's JSON so it may count it as such..

Those errors aren't anything to do with it unfortunately. I get them too and it works, I believe they're something to do with the download links but I've yet to figure out what / why (and as it doesn't seem to break anything it hasn't been a top priority)

I'll keep looking into it and see what I can think of.

Two things:

I've completely disabled NoScript, and updated AF - still getting the same result.
When stuck with the default GOG style (your site disallowed), the Downloader button is (obviously?) not there, yet the related errors are in the console.

And I just updated AF in my SWare Iron browser, where I have only BE and AF installed (using TamperMonkey), and guess what? No Legacy shelf, just the default GOG one.

I was going to check if any of my other Firefox add-ons get in the way, but since I have the same problem on my other browser, I'm not sure it's worth the trouble.

Just to report from another user:
I have no problem with any of the styles, except of course for the missing covers already reported.
