Auto Update Support #6

Open JOBNED1 opened 2 years ago

JOBNED1 commented 2 years ago

This is more of a suggestion but maybe support for emulators that use lua or python to auto update the Team json file. I was kind of playing around with the idea already myself using an old lua plugin for DeSmuME that does something similar but requires you to already have all the images and only uses lua. (note: I know there are people that illegally download games too but I only do ones that I bought an official copy of sometime in my life.)

If there is an emulator that has Lua scripting support, I'd be ecstatic to take a look at them.

But if the team.json file is updated, regardless of where it'll automatically update the sources in OBS. It doesn't need to use the secondary script, that was just a concept for this exact idea.

Hello @JOBNED1, did you happen to see my previous message on your issue here? It's been almost a month since I heard from you.

Sorry I actually haven't been online much until now... As far as emulators with Lua script support there are a few actually. VBA-RR for Gameboy Advanced, Desmume for DS, for 3DS it would be Python instead with Citra. Still there are a few that does so which as I said I found some old systems that aren't the greatest and prefer your method instead but it would be nice to see something that could bring the auto grab features for the party and movement from you with the animated sprites.

Hello @JOBNED1

My apologies for taking so long with your request. School and work have been kicking my butt lately. The problem lately is a condensed semester and working 40ish hours a week...

It is on my to-do list to look into these emulators to write companion scripts for them. There is also a different user who has a pull request (#11) right now that fixes some problems and adds in forms.

No worries... Like I said before I've been busy too... Still great to know you at least read the response and that it wasn't lost into the distance.
