@Wolvan Just a heads up, I've swapped out the original crap-tastic API code for the new /v1/ rewrite... So far Homebr3w seems stable with the legacy compatibility layer, but in case anyone reports problems, let me know right away.

@Wolvan
Appeared a problem today in the application the error number is 642.
This error is showing up at the time the application runs the data verification process in its startup process.
By chance the Homebrew listing server is off the air ?

Yeah, titledb.com was down due to running out of memory and the kernel killing things off. I'm still working on resolving this correctly, but I've hacked together a quick supervisor to reload it if it crashes again in the meantime.

So I this to update TWLauncher but when it's updated it has a second CIA that's supposed to be installed and sometimes other files and folders is there anyway that the other stuff can be added so it gets updated?

Unfortunately, this is not possible due to the way TitleDB gets information and what it offers Homebr3w to download

@Wolvan , Mednafen/Beetle PCE Fast won't download.

fwiw, titledb is providing the correct file from the archive when proxying... not sure why it wouldn't be working, at least from my side.

$ md5 000400000BAC1400 RetroArch_cia/cia/mednafen_pce_fast_libretro.cia
MD5 (000400000BAC1400) = 052281e24d76e6561f81c109697628bf
MD5 (RetroArch_cia/cia/mednafen_pce_fast_libretro.cia) = 052281e24d76e6561f81c109697628bf

@Robz8 said he was having problems uploading to titledb. So wondering if it's having other problems
The problem @Robz8 has is with DSiWare .cia files being unlistable in TDB due to their different SMDH contents and the legacy implementation of my metadata parser being unable to handle this alternate format correctly.

Yeah that makes sense. Will this be solved this be done with the assets feature you mentioned earlier or can an asset be another installable cia file?

The assets stuff is basically just a mapping for what files in an archive go where, but the app entries in general would be able to list both .cia files under the same grouping, even though they're different "apps", so it would be much more apparent that they go together. Direct install dependencies between multiple cia files could probably be added fairly easily as well. However, it seems to me that if one app really requires the other and can't operate without it, it should probably just pull up a httpc context and download and install the thing itself. Doing this on the 3DS is fairly trivial these days, it can be done in ~100 lines of code using only ctrulib.
