I have spent a few hours trying to get this to work. Every time I try to set it up I get a bunch of syntax error in the CMD menu and when I try to use android (legacy) or proxydroid, nothing at all happens even when I edit the config to my liking. I am sure I am missing something but its still been a frustrating few hours. I reset my wifi and tried again but now I get a pop up saying it cant connect to the wifi.

Actually it is, the readme is not hard to follow and you only have to configure the proxy.
You have to provide more details, otherwise I cannot help you.

I'll itemize what I did and maybe you can tell me where I messed up. 1.Extracted the files into its own folder on the desktop 2.Open the config file with Notepad++ and edit it to my liking 3.Run the start.bat and let it load to tell me to input the proxy URL 4.Put in the URL into the WIFI proxy settings. 5.Open the game and sit at a black screen before a popup says I failed to connect.

its been a few days and I still havent been able to get it to work. I finally got the certificate to install but still nothing.

ThauEx commented 5 years ago

I've been busy the last days...
Try to get it working without config first. Phone configuration is basicly setting the url for proxy.pac in proxy settings and for iOS the root certificate. After that it should work.
For custom config, create a new default.yml inside config and put your settings there.

I understand and I appreciate you getting back to me but it just will not load up. I have tried now on both android, iOS, and emulators. I deleted everything and started again from a fresh download. I ran the .bat and edited my phones proxy setting and the game just hangs on the "A connection error has occurred. Retry?" I have attached photos showing just running without editing config and after renaming the default.whitelist to just default. first second

ThauEx commented 5 years ago

Hm... It fails to parse the config, I can check later if the same happens to me.

AdamFenix commented 5 years ago

I really appreciate the help

ThauEx commented 5 years ago

I can reproduce this issue, will try to make a fix for that.

AdamFenix commented 5 years ago

I hope its an easy one to fix

ThauEx commented 5 years ago

Replace lib/config.js with this one: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ThauEx/ffrk-proxy/master/lib/config.js
Issue is fixed in master branch, but no new release yet.

Thanks, that seems to be working now.
