It's can be: meta.json (working on it for download button reason), or maybe old version file, or some special case I don't know about.
1. About packages blacklist, it's not that hard to do, but is it that necessary? I almost newer use the download all button, just download any required package depend on it's file side, not to be large, under 10Mb or 100Mb, hate that 500Mb things. Filtering to not show a name in download, from some file is easy, but to add names in that file is a problem, creating UI for this isn't cost it.Hey, great plugin.
Could you add a feature to blacklist certain packages from showing up in the downloader or being downloaded by the download all button? Some packages, which aren't necessary to run dependent scenes, I don't want to download ever. A toggle to exclude older versions of existing packages would be great, too.
In return, I could offer code reviews and/or to refactor your quote big, messy, hard to understand unquote code.
Cheers
I'd like to be able to use the download all button but I can't because it'll download packages I don't want. It's mostly the same packages over and over so a black list would be helpful. You're right that adding a check box is easy. Persistence for the black list could just be some [package name].blacklist files under /Saves/PluginData or a proper json file.
That's why I'm offering a professional once-over. It's a useful plugin but maintainability could be improved.
I mean UI is a problem, even for toggle. To add name filtering from blacklist is like 3 hours of work, but add toggle (looks like two of them) per each download item is like 20hours.
It's more useful for paid scenes that don't have a hub page to download dependencies from (within vam). You can either look each dependency up manually or load the scene and look at the package viewer, which is a pain.
This may be some special case or you trying to open the wrong file.
It’s my own scene, and it admittedly has quite a lot of stuff XD Does your plugin need for it to been a .var to work? As mine isn’t in that form. I’ve just been working on it in the creator, and saving it every now and then. It will show me the download dependencies, but nothing else. I can't see the All Dependencies tab, or any other besides Start info.
No, it doesn't crash. And nothing appears in the error log, just the message log:
Put file some where in Custom/Scripts, then find and open it as a plugin.
Do I need to unpack the file first? I tried moving it there, and it didn't appear when trying to open it.
There is nothing to unpack, it is a text file, if the path like this \Custom\Scripts\DependencyViewer.cs , than in game just open it there. New plugin -> Select file -> "Custom\Scripts" shortcut on the left -> and select file. It must be there, you don't even need to restart the game or something
Ohhhhh, I missed your attachment. I thought you meant the .var. Sorry about that. And that actually worked! Everything is fine doing it like this! Not sure what the issue is with the .var file then.
I tried bypass the problem, it looks like one of your packages has wrong name pattern, it must be "AuthorName.PackageName.VersionNumber.var"
foreach (string key in js.Keys)
{
- if (js[key].Value != string.Empty)
+ if (js[key] != null && js[key].Value != string.Empty)
