Pyromaniac's Request Forum

Well, if you haven't heard already, I'm back and ready to develop new portable apps! *cheers in background*

Due to the overwhelming number of requests I accepted (and turned down) in the last forum, I've decided to post some guidelines for requesting apps for me to make. Please note though, that you can still post in the Request Apps forum, but I will mainly be looking at this topic for new apps to portable-ize.

It's like a request forum inside a request forum! Biggrin

GUIDELINES
1. Try not to exceed 100 MB. Due to hardware/software limitations of my only computer, it's unlikely that I will be able to run larger programs (especially something like LibreOffice), but if you really wanna request it, I'll be happy to look at it.

2. No fast-paced games. Games like Assault Cube that use a lot of memory and CPU very rarely work on my PC, although I was able to (barely) run 0 A.D., which really surprised me.

3. KISS. Keep It Simple Stupid. A name, a short description, and a homepage link are all I need to look at an app. Heck, even a link to the homepage would suffice (but I'd still like to know about the app).

4. Be prepared to be rejected. Sometimes I forget, sometimes I don't want to do something because I don't feel like it, sometimes I can't do it do to licensing restrictions, etc. etc. I ain't superman, but I certainly try Wink

5. Be awesome. There really ain't nothing to say for number 5, it's just that in Japan, the number 4 is unlucky because it sounds erily similar to the word for "death". I don't like to end with death Blum

So there you have it. There ain't really many advantages between posting here and posting in the main forum, but you'll generally see new development test apps on a weekly basis :D. You can always keep track of my work here.

Have at it...

[This topic has been locked by mod JTH. Please use the Request Apps forum as is laid out. One request per topic and then developers respond to pick them up. Otherwise this will make it much more difficult for users and developers to keep track of what is requested and what has been taken.]

Don't do it this way

I don't think that you should do it this way; the forum is there to be used as one topic per request, not one comment per request in one thread. Just follow activity in the Request Apps forum.

I am a Christian and a developer and moderator here.

168, 169...Pyro got his fans-base, ya know

I hope u r not *acting* like u know what u r doing in PAFing all these great apps!! How does 1 go from acting to coding? Talk about RANGE as it relates to acting Wink Shock ...Hey, Pyro, can u act like this to ur teacher when she asks for substantiation Bad ?

HTPC APPS:

freeware iTunes-alternative CopyTrans Manager 0.930 let you manage iPhone iPod Touch iPod, add tracks, create playlists:
@ http://CopyTrans.net/download.php do a Ctrl+F for: CopyTrans Manager - FREE (OR 1-step-removed-from-DDL-link for ZIP file = http://CopyTrans.net/download-zip.php?program=CTM ). [REF'ed by http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19512_7-20030873-233.htm which gives FREE activation code TUNESWIFT-FOR-CNET which u might/might not have to use. If the code is needed, then good til 3/15/11 or if after said date, then until iTunes 10.1.2 gets updated. In other words, if u want working FREE CopyTrans Manager, keep iTunes 10.1.2 and do NOT update iTunes!]

R u still gonna work on StreamTransport? http://download3.videohelp.com/streamtransport_setup_1022041.exe (version before last which supposedly working/works better than last version 1.0.2.2171; list of versions http://rtmpe.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=19 ) [Their portable implementation http://rtmpe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=203 ]

For some reason, I think u should still PAF last version (1.0.2.2171), which u can always get @ http://StreamTransport.com . BTW, I think ST is abandoned (see http://rtmpe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=462 AND http://rtmpe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=456 ) [ALL versions, last as well as old http://videohelp.com/tools/StreamTransport/old-versions ]
