Saved threads will not carry over to this version, please save your links and re-download them when updating.

it's been a little bit and i wanted to incorporate some lessons learned in the last year into this version. it's not exactly where it could be, but it's fine for now.

  • Added FoolFuuka chan support, which means 3 archive sites are possible to be saved - b4k, desuarchive, and archived. Currently, b4k is the only one that actually "works", I haven't verified the other two but it's not a big deal right now.
  • 8chan has been updated to work. It has a cookie requirement, so it needs to be accounted for.
  • 7chan, fchan, and u18chan have all been updated. The posts, their files, post IDs, messages, everything useful is now scraped and preserved.
  • This also means, 7chan, fchan, and u18chan all save thread html now. Every chan now supports saving thread HTML with no real chan that doesn't.
  • u18chan is forced to wait 30 minutes between scans. Why? Because they don't support 'if-modified-since' headers, and I don't want to spam them every x-seconds. It was originally gonna be an hour.
  • To make up for it, I added the ability to preserve u18chan thread and post tags.
  • Proxy support, you can add a HTTP, SOCKS4, SOCKS4A, or SOCKS5 proxy to YChanEx and it'll just work(tm). Currently, you have to be specific with your proxy (ex, "socks5://123.456.789.0:123", "http://12.34.56.78:90", "socks4a://1.1.1.1:0") and domain names aren't currently supported, but I plan on adding support for that eventually.
  • Saved thread infos are now heavily modified. Old saved thread infos are not supported, and youll receive an error when download. Just re-download them.
  • Downloads do not re-create new threads after scans, they re-use the same thread until the thread is killed.
  • Download user-agent is now based on application, you cannot change it anymore.
  • Reloading saved threads are now delayed a little bit -- this is so you can see them being loaded, and also so the chan servers won't instantly tell you to fuck off if you have a ton of threads.
  • Exiting from the tray actually exits if its not minimized already.
  • Changes to saving thread HTML, it should be better.
  • Additionally, HTML now has reply links on posts. Maybe someday i'll figure out a way to have a hover display for replies.

Because this is a pre-release, there may be issues that come up. Please remember how it happened and be sure to give me thread links to verify and fix the errors.
