    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

      I was sad, that 0.18.9 wasn't working anymore .... but (in the getting-better-java-client) I got a link to here.
      Very happy you fixed it... good old python-client. Thx 🙂

        • The client now can keep game files in cache like the Java client.
        • Fix fafbeta and fafdevelop updating issues.

          • Now it is possible to browse and search mods/maps by name in the vaults. Looks pretty ugly, but works! (i hope so)

            @Gatsik I ask once more: why don't you publish your changes to Github? Other people might want to build on top of your changes.
            We can make you maintainer of the project and you can build official releases.

              But they are on Github, aren't they? Because I'm not a programmer and, firstly, I don't want to spoil anything, and secondly, I don't know when I'll stop trying to fix it.

              P.S. Updated the release binary of the previous post from here, so map search should start to work

                Well you started with whats on Github. So obviously it is found by people who are interested in it.
                Also: What's there to spoil? Right now the github version is majorly broken and you have fixes.

                  For some reason, the leaderboard tab stopped working at some point. It used to just show the leaderboards web page from the FAF website. I think that is the ideal solution since it lets you look at the ladder league standings and stuff from within the client.

                    @Brutus5000 I mean I read the docs, and I'm sure my code is awful inconsistent in terms of these requirements, I didn't use logger as I'm not sure where it is needed, repetitions that probably could've summarized into some classes, etc.
                    I can do a pull request so someone who has expertise can review it if that is what you want from me.

                    @ThomasHiatt I was thinking about using those internal 'Air scouts', 'Tech 1', ... tabs to rename them and asking api, since the playerDivisionInfo is available here, but probably adding the website would be easier.

                      @Gatsik I took a look at your commits , and as a long-time Python client maintainer I officially bless them as good.

                        • Display the leaderboards web page from the FAF website as leaderboards
                        • Newstab: display images and links
                        • Vaults tab: items' icons (known or unknown) are always shown

                        Unofficial Python client 0.18.13

                        Created a pull request so other people who might want to build on top of these changes are able to do this.

                            I have not enough acquaintances to test it properly (and too dumb to write unit tests), so here it is:

                            Unofficial Python client 0.19.1 omega TMM

                            If it's OK, then I'll do a pull request a little bit later, because I had connection issues today (but also I had the same issues with 0.19.0, so It shouldn't be related to TMM).
                            Anyway, It needs further work.
