#mspanotify

So, for some reason, the code I change affected how real checks, not fake checks, work. Even though they use the same routine/function. So people would be getting black boxes and hourglass cursors when they detected an actual update. I did not expect this in my haste, and spent the last few hours debugging it. I also noticed that sometimes if you fake checked really fast one after another, you could crash the program, and that has also been fixed.

If you downloaded 0.5.2.5 or 0.5.2.6, the next time you launch the program, it’ll let you know there’s been an update and take you to 0.5.2.8. But since you’re here, grab the update here!

EDIT2: Found Bugs. Squashed them. Download 0.5.2.8 here.

EDIT: I left a test messagebox in 0.5.2.5, update to 0.5.2.6 to get rid of it. Whoops!

ALRIGHTY, what you’ve been waiting for is here!

MSPA has changed a little bit, and no longer relies on it’s RSS feed, and neither does the notifier anymore, thanks to tjb0607 and his server side notifier, upd8.ninja!

And since we no longer bash the RSS feed at MSPA, I’ve changed how frequent updates are checked to 1 minute, PERMANENTLY! You will now know within 1 minute of a live update, which is faster than the RSS feed used to be! Major kudos to tjb0607 for helping out! Please give them some thanks, and I’ve credited them in the About page of the notifier program!

Go ahead and DOWNLOAD NOW and sit back, relax, and enjoy your favorite macros!

Technical change notes:

Logging now works on everyone’s computer, not just my own (Thus the new MSPANotify.exe.config file in the Zip)!

No more RSS feed, the notifier now looks at tjb0607‘s server for faster results and lower bandwidth usage.

“Do not Disturb” mode no longer takes you to Paradox Space when clicked, and clicking no longer crashes the program.

No more Mediafire hosting. Reports are that the ads on Mediafire had inadvertently installed malware on user’s computers. Hosting is now done on my own Dropbox.
