Could you tell me what novel you were trying to download and from which source.

I tried downloading multiple big novels from NovelPlanet like I Alone Level Up and Overgeared. Both of them downloaded correctly. You could try doing the following:

• Check if your internet connection is stable by downloading something (from Steam maybe?)
• Run the app as administrative.
• Maybe the UI is just stuck and it's actually downloading. In that case, check your download folder.
• Inside the app, press CTRL + SHIFT + i and check if you see any errors.

The current fix for bypassing Cloudflare was only a temporary fix and some people have reported it failing when trying to use it multiple times. I have been considering moving to a more stable fix which will not require me to update it every few months. I will probably work on that after some time, but for now, we will have to wait for a solid patch.

You could also try restarting your computer and also restarting your router/modem (wait 10 secs) so you can get a new IP if you are not static. If that doesn't fix it then you will probably have to wait a bit longer.

ill wait then. thx for the attention btw do you some place to where i can see some related problems regarding Novel-Scraper like forum or something?

[dr-nyt]

I do have a discord server where it's considerably easy to talk and I make most of my announcements there: https://discord.gg/Wya4Dst

Just checking are you still having this issue? The cloudscraper module became deprecated and I would probably have to find another way which might take a while since I finally landed an internship 🎉

Since novelplanet has shut down and won't be supported anymore, this issue won't be fixed.
