In other words, i press "Close Software" and i'm met with never ending "Wii U Menu" thing with looped sound.
Never had that happen in the channel version, so I'm not sure how to fix it if you have that problem. Plus you're the first person to mention this problem.

BTW, are you not using ESC to exit after you've connected, like the instructions say? If you exit with the HOME button while actually connected, it may or may not work, because the connection may not properly get closed down. This is why it has the ESC key mapped to exit. This isn't a problem in the GX2 version that is coming out soon(TM) though.

The GX2 version is very close to being released. I just finished adding in the OSK. All I need to do now, is add parsing URL links and I'll be finished. I was hoping to finish this before BOTW was released, but it's looking like it will be finished at the same time, so I guess most people will probably not even notice when I do release this. :D

I've finally added pretty much everything I wanted to add to the GX2 version. It now has an OSK, not the best, but it works, also it now parses (only searches for http or https links, regex library is not in devkitpro and I could never compile it for it successfully) URLs and saves them. Once URLs are saved, you can scroll through them and "launch" them. If it's a direct link to an image, the image will download and show inside the client. If the link is to a webpage, the internet browser will open to that link. I haven't had time to fix the reconnect functions, so if you hang out in the browser for a very long time, you could possibly lose connection to the IRC server, and not be able to reconnect to it. I'm not sure why, the app should still be running its threads in the background. The only thing I have to finish, is assigning gamepad buttons to control the URL launching, it's currently only done for USB keyboard controls. Once I get the gamepad controls all completed, this should be ready for a release.

Unbelievable that you even spend your time on this after something like BOTW has been released. :P
Great work! :)

I don't even care about BOTW. I played it to see what all the hype was about and there wasn't anything exciting about it at all, so I went back to finishing this.

The client has been updated:
v2.01 - Fix a hang on exit if you disconnect

I highly suggest you update from v2.00 if you have installed it, or else the app will hang on exit if you ever happen to disconnect. I am currently going to try a few things to make sure it never disconnects, even when in the background.

The client has been updated:
v2.02 - Fixed threading in the background, the app will now maintain a connection when in the background

This update is HUGE. As long as your Wii U internet connection still works, you will NOT lose connection while the app is in the background. I open the Internet Browser and left the client in the background for 10 minutes, and received every message while it was in the background, and never lost connection to the IRC server. Before it would timeout after about 4 minutes.

The client has been updated:
v2.03 - Fixed HTTPS connections and can now download images from https links into the client

Previously, if you tried to open an image from a https link, it would not download it, and would always open the internet browser to show it. This is fixed now and the image will download and show in the client.

Well, there is no official thread for that app, and I didn't want to leave it blank.

I wouldn't talk about that app here though. ;)

Come on IRC if you need help with it, that's another reason why it's linked to this app.

Honestly I haven't used it, I have other (more convenient) ways to access that kind of content, I was just curious about where it fetches the videos from and thought I'd take a peak at the source, but the source button leads here lol.

    I got this ps4 at launch and never updated since 9.0

    You got a good chance of buying a used one and asking the seller how often they used or even ask for a Pic of fw and telling them not to update

    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.

    Idk if online servers are still active that would be my only thought

    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I play most games that are on both PS3/360 strickly on the 360, but PS3 exclusives are really only games I play on the PS3 (You know me, I'm more of a Xbox junkie)

    Ps3 really has no titles worth going online over nps is the only reason you'd want wifi
