[FR]: Better way to add new icons

[luissilva1044894]

Explanation

Make a new repo and add me as Contributor? Or I should make a public repo which you'll "fork" later?

I'm planning to add as many icons as possible. If you've any idea, tell me.

• I've checked if such feature exists on Latest version
• This Feature requires an update of WxWidgets
• Needs an update of HDL Dump

Not really,
I'm not sure if it's safe to hold the bare icons on the repo

You can make a repo to organize yourself

And when you want to make the PR just pack the files and do the PR

[luissilva1044894]

Why? Copyright or something like?

Well, isn't that hard to unzip your file... Password is hardcoded in the repo (That's why I got it without asking for). I don't see why it should be less safe.

Whatever, I was thinking something like your FMCB repo automatically uploading files.
But I think should be better to use .json or folder based system. It's turning hard to follow that .ini (2469 lines currently, gamename.DB has +15000 lines. Turned it alphabetically, but still...) and 7z file will be ever more big.

Maybe

But keeping the list as an INI is easier and simpler from code side

Maybe make a system that builds the package from the style you want into the style used by the program

[luissilva1044894]

Check my repo now.

It's already generating .7z (With your pass!). Better to review, less prone to errors.

Only changes I really made was: Removed unecessary # and reordered Icons.ini to match gamename DB.

@luissilva1044894 users are reporting duplicated entries on the ini

Maybe you can check it.

I'm too busy ATM

Well, I'm working on a CDN like for PS2 icons.
There are only 940 icons there rn. Unlike your .zip, some icons are duplicated.

https://playstation2-icons.onrender.com/{game_id}/icon.sys (HDD format. All values extracted from save)
https://playstation2-icons.onrender.com/{game_id}/list.ico
https://playstation2-icons.onrender.com/{game_id}/del.ico (md5 != list.ico or 404 error)
https://playstation2-icons.onrender.com/{game_id}/copy.ico (md5 != list.ico or 404 error, not needed for HDDOSD)

Or https://playstation2-icons.onrender.com/{game_id} which returns a zip containing all files.

I'm still working on title0 & title1. Looking for a better DB for parsing the names, I'll use SerialStation, I guess.

I'll asking later on #savedata-sharing/GDX, but what u think? Can you send me the saves u have?
