Release of Manga Downloader v71!
🕑 Added 2025-05-01 09:12:31 +0000 UTCDear supporters,
I am thrilled to announce that the public version of Manga Downloader v71 is finally here! 🎉 This release marks another milestone in our journey, and I couldn't have reached this point without your incredible support.
Before diving into the details, I want to apologize for the delay in this release, which was originally scheduled for early April. Unfortunately, potential legal issues with Tapas & similar official websites demanded immediate attention, and I had to dedicate time to rewriting parts of the code to address these challenges. While it meant removing automatic support for certain functionalities, this shift opened the door to something even greater—the introduction of better external script support.
With the new system in place, users can now create and maintain their own custom scripts, providing limitless possibilities to personalize and enhance the program according to their needs. To help you get started, I’ve created a step-by-step guide on how to develop these external scripts. You can find the tutorial on the official website here: https://redsquirrel87.com/manga-downloader-external-scripts-tutorial. This extra effort added a couple of weeks of work, but I believe it was time well spent to empower you with greater flexibility and control.
As always, my next couple of weeks will be dedicated solely to addressing any bugs that arise from large-scale usage. During this period, please expect no nightly builds, as my focus will be on ensuring stability and improving the program's robustness for everyone. Once the situation with quick bug fixes stabilizes, I will resume working on the next version of Manga Downloader with new nightly builds as always. Rest assured, thanks to your ongoing support, this project remains vibrant and alive, and I’m excited to continue innovating together.
Finally, I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your unwavering support here on Patreon. Without you, Manga Downloader might have faded into obscurity long ago—but instead, it thrives and grows. Your encouragement and contributions mean the world to me, and I look forward to delivering more amazing updates in the future.
Thank you for being a vital part of this journey! ❤
