Tapas-Comic-Downloader doesn't work anymore

[Pan1971]

It has worked flawlessly for a long time but now suddenly it won't. The problem occurs both with new comics and old ones that worked before. Maybe it would benefit from an update?

Below is the output from the command prompt from which I started the tool. It looks similar no matter which comic I use it for.

Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\HP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\site-packages\requests\models.py", line 971, in json return complexjson.loads(self.text, **kwargs) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Users\HP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\json__init__.py", line 346, in loads return _default_decoder.decode(s) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Users\HP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\json\decoder.py", line 337, in decode obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end()) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "C:\Users\HP\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python312\Lib\json\decoder.py", line 355, in raw_decode raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 5 column 1 (char 4)

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Same issue on windows.

The same thing happens on Windows 10 ltsc and Ubuntu 22.04; in the python 3.10 virtual environment it seems to work but still gives error.

I hope it will be fixed soon.

Yeah it's a 403 error I keep getting whenever I try to access python with any script. I think maybe giving the tool my tapas login cookies would help?

Same here even when i give it my cookies
