Definitely don't wanna anger the cloudflare it'll come getcha.

on a second look, this appears to be a captcha. if it happens even with notification checking disabled, then it happened when connecting to my f95checker cache api. basically, you angered cloudflare, so they gave you a captcha. either you are doing some very shady things like ddossing cloudflare websites or downloading many or some weird things things, or maybe your ip has been flagged as malicious (due to the previously described, or because of the area youre from), or maybe one of the above is happening due to a malware on something inside your house that is doing those things without you or others knowing. you can stop doing whatever it is youre doing, if it is in fact your doing, or you can try with a vpn, or you can try to restart your router in hopes of getting a new ip address.

Thanks, I don't do shady things on purpose. And I hope that none of my computers has been hacked. I will try on another computer and from another router.

Hi. Is there a way to have multiple databases callable from the application without having to manually act in %AppData%?

How well does this work with collections?

Collection pages are not as regulated as game pages, so it may not. Note that the checker is page-based. If the version and title of the page is changed it may pick it up. If it's just an item on the page such as a new item added it won't.

Collections of what? For animations / comics collections it works great. For games, it usually also works fine but depends on each case. Rule of thumb is that if you see a version number / date for the collection in f95zone latest updates page, then it will work great. If not, it may be a little hit or miss

You could make a symlink of the whole folder to another place, and change the databases there. Or have a symlink of just the database, and change to which file it points using a script.
Anyway, why do you need multiple? You could just use separate tabs in most cases

I was thinking of separating titles with complete, abandoned and in progress status.
Then I might want to separate the in progress titles between Kinetic Novel ones or those that contain fetish.
If you can give me a hint how I could manage it with a single database that's fine

Yeah, it was a game collection and it has a date as version. I guess it should work same as games with multiple versions when it comes to launching.

labels and tabs. maybe tabs for the progress status, and labels for genre. or other way around. but absolutely there is no necessity for separate databases for those kind of needs

Like Willy says. you only need a filter of some kind. I use tabs myself. It is also easy to filter Status: Complete (I think. Something like that. I would have to check). Make the filter, select them all, right-click one of them, [move to tab] / [new tab]. and so on.

And sorry, Willy labels for this don't make much sense, since you can already filter by game status and genre (tags), since you would have to filter by the label.

But maybe that would give people something more to do. I take it back.

Actually, my need is of a particular type.
In one database I keep all the titles of my library and I check the updates, because I have to keep the library always updated, while in another database I insert titles that I want to keep under control, but that have nothing to do with the library, so I don't want to mix the two lists.
That's fine, they are like creating multiple databases and renaming them with a batch.

It seems like you want to do different things with the different databases which would mess up the other. In which case I would recommend using multiple computers in order to keep the libraries separate.

That's one solution, another is to have multiple %AppData%\f95checker folders to rename as needed. It's best if the management of titles not in the library are checked occasionally, for example once a week or a month, while those in the library I check daily.


However, it is undeniable that this tool is really useful.

another option could be "f95checker.library" and "f95checker.personal", then use a batch script to make a symlink from either one to "f95checker", this way you dont get confused which one is the current one, the naming is always clear, and there is no renaming, just symlinks

it could still work with tabs (like one tab for "library" and one for "personal" or whatever), but if the same game would need to be tracked differently in both categories then yeah, separate databases are necessary

I should figure out how to create these symbolic links.

The issue is not technical, but organizational, I want to keep the two lists separate, because the Personal ones can contain various links that have nothing to do with the library.
The idea of naming the folders "f95checker.library" and "f95checker.personal" is good.

If you are on Windows you can do it easily in PowerShell (or a .ps1 script) using command 'mklink'. If you are on Linux I think it is just 'ln' (it has been years since I used Linux regularly). Either way, Google is your friend
