This would be a really good idea , as my live is messing up at the moment , so maybe if we made the fileshare spider to work with the new fileshares this would help me and many others alot.

 

 

Please make it again.

What did the old one do again?

 

It'd be really easy for me to write it, but I don't want to just copy Nuklear :/

 

 

well you would type keywords like; mod, anth0ny( idk his name), anything that would relate to a mod.. then it would go through every fileshare, and just give you a list of links. i think i still have it but like someone said it might not work properly

Nuklear made it. Me and him still talk, I'll see if we can get permission to update it.

 

It was a simple program, it just took ages to run.

 

 

yea, for a simple one it would take all night to search a few thousand fileshare. an update would be nice

Pulling every gamertag is what took forever.

 

I have now 600,000 that it pulls from bnet (based on either activity or games played) not sure, but I think its better than using every GT.

 

If you want content it should be there since it pulls from active users. Still takes a helluva a lot of time :(

 

Working on it.

Making a fast version of this tool would be difficult. If it can be done, it would be very interesting. Maybe there can be search level options from 1-10. The higher the number the more in depth players it searches through?

The problem is gathering the GTs, as about now it takes 2 minutes just to grab every gamertag. That file is then a 1mb textfile which all the GTs. I could have you only generate that when you want, and that saves lots of time. The searching itself is only dependent on how many gamertags you want to search.

 

Heres an update. Only the top and left side is coded so far.

I could help you load faster, instead of trying to time the load times Peaches.

 

Loop through each fileshare URL of each gamertag (loaded from a text file), look for the words in the flaggWordsListBox through a downloaded string, get the file details and load into the capturedFileShares.

 

As you said, make a separate button to Download the gamertags, and the Start button can just be used to loop through every gamertag. :)

Dark helped me unlock the form on the fly and keep it auto updating.

 

You can build the GT list yourself or use the one that is included. If you build one it clocks in at about 1minute and 20 seconds. I started working on aligning what fileshare you click on to load that description and URL. I'm going to have to match up selected index in some array that I don't know how big it could get. I wish reDim didn't clear the array :(

Just because I enjoy helping you:

 

1. I can help you improve the speed even further after I test the updated code in my own application.

2. I can help you with this if you have any trouble.

3. ReDim Preserve. (ReDim is meant to increase or decrease the size of an Array variable. If you use 'Preserve', it will maintain the previous data, and allow extension)
