Open NicTanghe opened 4 years ago

NicTanghe commented 4 years ago

Hello im on latest release and i keep getting Retrieving Weather ....

Is it becouse i live in belgium and not the US ? Or is it becouse Weather.com shut down the API ?

mikekscholz commented 4 years ago

It should be working, make sure you're setting location inside of resources/includes/TWC_variables, this was a quick and dirty update and I didnt take the time to strip out the original settings dialog yet, that one has no effect anymore." Right click on the skin and theres a edit weather variables option at the top of the list. There’s instructions in the file for how to get your location code.

Looks like this.

[Variables]

LocationCode=8c6b0e55d5cf8568f60d839eaf3fa128975a8daf414f334c76ea19e9e1e1d3b0
LangLoc=en-US

I pushed the code to reflect the releases, somehow you still have the old version of the config file. download the latest version https://github.com/mikekscholz/Simplony-Reborn/releases/download/7.15.2020/Simplony_7.15.2020.rmskin and then try something like this:

[Variables]
SIMPLONYCOLOR=255,255,255
LocationCode=663c202dc3beb0d43664d63fe2346cc9ebaffdd33c4233d334c07640a572f773

; Change to F or C to display in current temp and to control the 'UNITS' values to match Imperial(F) or Metric(C) measurements.
UnitsTemp=C

; MPH or KMH
SpeedUnit=KMH
; IN or MB
PressureUnit=MB
; MILE or KM
VisibilityUnit=KM

; You can set your language-location for TWC here
; For English and Celsius use en-CA outside of United Kingdom
LangLoc=nl-BE

; Set language here to translate entire skin
; Available Options: Catalan, Chinese, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian.
Language=Dutch

Obviously Ive made some assumptions about Language/Location but this should get you in the right direction.

It's all fixed dude thanks. Seems that changing F to C wasn't enough and I also needed to change the other settings to get it working

mikekscholz commented 4 years ago

Some of the temp units are supplied by TWC with the temps as a single string value based on langloc settings, and some are supplied as just numbers and the F or C have to be added in, thats why theres two settings for it. Life is a little too hectic at the moment to sit down and code a more elegant solution but its on the todo list.

NicTanghe commented 4 years ago

Honestly if its just for me don't bother. If you just add that to the readme everyone will know and just change the settings themselves.

i think it broke again
