Real Scenery Downloader 10.8 beta 1

[Ben Russell]

Captains,

Your help in testing our new downloader would be much appreciated.

Bear in mind that the exhaust cowlings may still be hot.

This is a beta.

Please report any bugs here in the thread or in the bug-tracker directly.

http://bitbucket.org/xplugins/real-scenery-downloader/issues/new

This new downloader has been re-written from the ground up and should be both faster and more reliable.

If all goes well we can push forth with Norcal and all those other lovelies.

* password shown in clear text

* progam does not remember authorization data (mail/pass) after closing (but remembers download location)

* downloading seems to work, "thottle" moves within full range and work too

UPD:

* after first package downloading finishes, it's ETA freezes at 5 mins

Worked fine

total time 6 - 7 minutes

(this was with my wife streaming video on the same connection)

Works fine here. Throttle moves full range and does what it's supposed to. Password field is open as others have mentioned.

Other than that it seems pretty perfect.

When I open, it unexpectedly quits... (Like as soon as I double click the icon)

PPC OSX 10.5.8

It works good with me.

Mac Os X 10.6.4

[Ben Russell]

Thanks for the help everyone!

Regarding Mac OS 10.5, this is not a major concern.

I can build a copy of the app on my G5 which still runs 10.5.

My major concern with this release has been the download-engine and making sure it completes the files in a fast efficient manner.

Seems to do that so far, so I'll work on the minor cosmetics left and we should be able to call it final unless someone reports a show stopper.

So... The downloader works, the scenery is done... Any chance that the sceneries are going to come out soon?

Any luck with fixing it when it quits unexpectedly? It's doing the same thing to me.
