Note: This topic was originally retired but has been revived and we've been having developers pickup and revise some older apps that never made it to release. We're working on the newer postings quicker, but the old ones are getting picked off one by one as well.

If you've created an app that is currently posted as a Development Test and the following apply:

  • it has been tested by folks and no bugs are found
  • it conforms to the guidelines below
  • you are willing to support it on an ongoing basis (at least 6 months)

... then please post a note in this thread. Please note that this is for the actual authors/packagers only. Please don't nominate someone else's app for inclusion, thanks Smiling

Here are the Development Test guidelines:

  1. Compile the Development Test Splash Screen into your launcher
  2. Follow the current PortableApps.com Format™ specification.
  3. Use the current PortableApps.com Installer (see the PortableApps.com Format™ specification for details on how to use it).
  4. Doing a new release titled "Dev Test 1" or appropriate number. The installer should follow the standard naming convention of AppNamePortable_1.2_Dev_Test_1_English.paf.exe

Posts will be removed as the apps are released.

Apps that are not in PortableApps.com Format and ready for official release on PortableApps.com will be removed from this thread.

Java and .Net apps delayed

We won't be releasing Java or .NET apps just yet. Java we're waiting on licensing finalization with Oracle and will shortly have the only fully legal portable Java implementation which we'll work apps from. .NET apps are awaiting the new app directory which will have a special section for apps requiring .NET which will be hidden by default and include information on why it won't work on most public PCs (which are XP and have no .NET installed at all).

As noted here, the base app is many versions behind (currently base app is at 0.4.12), and there is an issue with settings not being saved. The MD5 doesn't match, otherwise I'd a more in-depth check.

As this is .NET, and .NET is not yet being supported by PortableApps.com, the Release team will hold off on testing this app until such time as .NET apps are officially supported.

Hold up

I see how your trying to help and all with releasing new portable apps, but some of these, like the one you just replied to are old and haven't been worked on for a long time. OliverK hasn't worked on that app for a while, or any other app, for that matter. I suggest working backwards, with the most recent ones first, so as not to not disturb the sleeping, so to speak.

not to be rude as that is not my intent, but we are going through the list as we see fit the list is slowly coming along but nonetheless we are chipping away, leaving notices to new or old apps especially the old so that we have an answer if the developer is working on it still or not.

There have been over 600 downloads of these 2 apps, and no comments so I assume that means there are no bugs

I'm confident in the stability since it uses PAL except I haven't done a good test to see if PAM language selection properly propagates to Minecraft for supported languages. There's some weird stuff I haven't been able to figure out either, like some listed languages in PAF not being in PAM's list of language codes and such. Ah well.

Noone's really posted in the topic, not sure if that's a good or bad thing.

This is a Java app, maybe it belongs on the list? That list looks old though.
