Using it, confortable design, did not find any bug yet.

edit: I cant close the chat with 2 clicks :( and there was a time i used the right button (mouse) to close the chat and it closed channels (all channels) then the snooper crashed! lol
Is it possible to make a feature that notifies you whenever a game with a specific name or containing certain words is created?
For example If I add "shopper" to the list and someones creates a game called "shopper rules" TWS notifies me through a sound and a tray message if it's minimized.
Ok, now I have time, just finished the RHCP book xd
So the things I need to do are (from AlTarf's and Senator's comments):don't forget I mentioned this should be an option as others might not like it, I do though...
- Independent windows for chat - I don't know if I can do this, don't really got the idea how could it be cool :/
- Save the order of the nick list - OK
- Login screen should be visible - I guess I should separate show login window and remember me checkboxes. Now remember me checks out show login window (not a bug, but a feature xD)
separating such windows isn't exactly necessary, I just don't want the login screen to disappear if I check the Show login screen at startup option (gets unchecked)forget about this, I learned a while ago that it's the Remember me box that causes this to happen, so if unchecked, it won't do stuff automatically anymorethat's okay, I didn't know that, yet I think there should be an option to disable them
- News.. why is it: you can't really inform people on WormNet about anything, but with this at least you can reach GS users.. news should not appear when you have read them all.. so if you just press left or right arrow button to "read" all the news, it should not open next time, unless there is a new item. I guess I will remove the last thing and not force people to read all the news ;)
a disconnect button is good if you wanna change your login information, which I do a lot so I need that: I simply wanna return to the login screen rather than disconnecting by clicking the X and when reopening, connecting and logging on automatically
- Logout - it's easier to close and reopen the application than making this xD I mean at the end I didn't have energy to make it, and for me it really don't look important, is it?
that's fine by me
- The update thing.. you could auto-start the snooper after being updated only with some hacks.. there is not so many updates that it should be annoying I guess
Another bug in updater:
Sorry guys I am not really in top shape :( So if you installed the new version (v1.4.2) of the snooper with the installer, then the automatic update will fail. You need to download the portable version (https://www.tus-wa.com/files/download/file-628-2/) of the snooper and copy the Updater2.exe file to the installation directory or reinstall the snooper with the installer version (https://www.tus-wa.com/files/download/file-628-1/). The ones who updater the snooper with auto updater to the new version should have no problems.
By the way the best way to update the snooper if you just run the Updater2.exe (as administrator).
also: I did download today, but how do I update to newest version?? or If I have downloaded recent, it will be the newest version??
and, its just a petty thing, but I am not a big fan of the icon.. wish it was nicer ;p
Hey Tomi.... is it possible to make this so you can DL it on android??
a snooper app?
would be cool to have snooper on my cell phone. thnx.
Tomi: goom is using a classic skin. So his right-click menu is probably different from yours. Shift+RightClick the taskbar icon to open the regular menu and close (and that option generates a different window message).
If the auto updater fails then you can update it to the newest version these ways:
- Close the snooper and go to the installation directory (usually Program Files (+-(x86)) / Great Snooper) and run Updater2.exe or Updater.exe if it is really old version :D
- Or download the portable version of the snooper and extract it to the installation directory (overwrite the files)
- Or delete the snooper completely and install it again using the installer
nice updates amigo!! im still hoping for a more appealing icon tho :P <3
What size it should be?16x16, 32x32, 48x48, 256x256 :D
Any other limits? 256 colors, for example?
yeah yeah yeah XanKrie!! make a nice icon!!
21:02:49 TdC`PeJ: lol i could kiss you
21:02:54 TdC`PeJ: this snoop is so cool
+1 to Farco+1 to you for no reason :D

One more thing, every single time you update your Great Snooper, your settings/friends/etc gets deleted and return back to its normal default settings. Is there a way to prevent that? If so, can you show me? :/Solved in 1.4.9.
Hey Tomi,
GS installer - The GS doesn't load for me for reason. No matter how many times i click on it. It just doesn't load up. I tried uninstalled and re-install it for at least 5 times and I still have yet get it to work. I even restart my computer like twice and that still doesn't work.
GS Portable - I got it to work nicely using the portable version. But i would need help on getting my GS to get back up running again through installer.
Tomi -
Is it My Comp > User > my name > Appdata > Local > ToOMiToO?
Tomi, how about to add a drop-down list with names of last or most frequently hosted games?Sorry I am really angry when I see only hosts "SuperSheeper for anyámkínja". I am sure the most frequently hosted scheme would be supersheeper :D
Add "HAL anyone?" on the list of the league game searcher. And maybe add an ability to create some customized spam messages.I added HAL to the list ;)
I want to translate on Russian.отлично :)
I guess i will translate it into Chinese? >>Pls translate into Japanese :D
# The content of the Yes button of the popup message
YesText=Igen
I can't find where the game stores the user name..It's in the win.ini file. GetProfileString and WriteProfileString to change it (or their .net equivalents)
btw i am working now on a big update which i hope will be really stable. so if you have any requests tell me NOW, not 1 day after I release an update ^^ btw this update will be released maybe next week or maybe the week after next week.
if you have any requests tell me NOWhmmm... hmmmmmm...
Tomi, why you don't dropdown list with names of games you last hosted?Hm, maybe I can do this
... but i use wheat snooper last few days because GS crashes every few minutes. Especially if he's working in the background ...The first problem is that the so called EnergySave mode doesn't work on some system well. It can be turned off as said in 2-3 posts ago.
Maybe somehow manage it to use less mobile data, cause there's many wormers there using smartphone as a modem.
My GS keeps crashing only when TUS is down oOThis is a win xp problem. To be honest I haven't really tested the snooper on xp, but to do it ^^
If I would add an option to turn off flags and ranks then it could be minimized more, but dunno if people would like that or not.
Is there a way to see what snooper people are using like Wheat Snooper 2.9 does? Without having to right click on their name .... On wheat you can see it on the right side next to their clan etc
Ye, the last line in chat and the user names right side have this little bug.. In new version I will change it.. the progress is about 60%.. unfortunately i can't really work on it coz i am busy with my family.. maybe in august i will have more time for coding ^^
And guys, you can still translate GS for your language if you want to ;) Just message me ;)
Russian, Polish and Hungarian languages will be available so far besides English.
I hope it wouldn't crash too much.
probably the only "problem" with that versionCrashing is the only major problem I can remember (because I couldn't do very much...), but there are few less important problems, like that one which cuts off some letters (g -> q, for example).
This happens to me too, but the hosted game appears.
Hi!
Any way to restore User Groups? I updated the snooper today and they are all gone :/
[maybe wrong board... posted in the beta testing-board, too...]

Im sorry if this was already discussed but I didn't find it via search.Great Snooper starts the game with the parameters required for hosting and nothing else, so this sounds a little interesting. I suggest you to open a topic about this in Tech Support forum, where the actual developers of w:a may answer this question, since I think I cant. Or with great snooper you can join #worms channel and there you can ask for help from StepS, CyberShadow or Deadcode. Or just use great snooper to start w:a and create the host from the game :o
I have a problem with Great Snooper :'( and such a great program... anyways...
When I host big maps.. like Big Tower Race or something along those lines what happens is that parts of the map become inaccessible.
Let me clarify. Part of the map can't be teleported to nor can I place worms there in the beginning of the game. This can be very frustrating when players need to start on "start" and can't do so.
This has happened many times and is not a map or a scheme thing. Recently I isolated the problem - Great Snooper. When I host the same map without the snooper everything is fine, but if I use it this bug happens. I'm using 2.1 version. Maybe someone figured a way around this?
Again I'm sorry if this was discussed already and thank you all for your time.

But there is one thing to complain - 1.4.9 highlights a reason of Notificator's sound, for example - i hear the sound, do Alt-Tab to GS, and in few seconds i can see a message in the tray - it was a cpecific word, or a friend came on AG or anything. v 2.1 doesnt do that.

What operating system do you use btw?
when, for example, my net drops - snooper goes down. When net comes back few seconds after, GS can't retrieve itself. So i need to close it, and then start it again with other nickname.Sounds like that problem I have with #worms channel. Sometimes GS simply fails to reconnect to it and loops forever, this usually happens after a long connection loss. No idea how to fix this.
Pls screenshot me your GS settings page[attachment=1]
Btw i cant fix your issues like this.. when i develop everyone is in silence.. after i release then you comment.. let me know if anyone of you are up for helping to find out this bug as a tester and then we can fix it.. now i just modify somethimg and hope that it will work on your system
my alias "niff" won't leave the channel. It's been hours. What is wrong?

Anyway to get the /reopen feature to work when hosting from great snooper? it works if i host from the actual wa.exe but just says "Cannot open a Direct IP game on WormNET" when i try to do it from a great snooper host.http://worms2d.info/WkRehost
Tried that didn't seem to work.Anyway to get the /reopen feature to work when hosting from great snooper? it works if i host from the actual wa.exe but just says "Cannot open a Direct IP game on WormNET" when i try to do it from a great snooper host.http://worms2d.info/WkRehost
Ah sorry but that's a too big feature compared to the free time i have got :/ Maybe if there is a wpf dev here then he can do it ^^That's ok, just thought I'd ask :D
there's a possibility of a person asking something in another language, or making a typo, or whatever, and none of these would be noticed by Notificator.
Not a flawless solution, see above for a reasonthere's a possibility of a person asking something in another language, or making a typo, or whatever, and none of these would be noticed by Notificator.
But if there's nothing better, it'd probably work
I'm not sure if I want to get beeped by random flooders. Plus sometimes people in #Help do actually talk, sometimes for 10+ minutes, that might be annoying if it'd beep all these 10 minutes non-stop. And yet that's much better than nothing.Ok, now i dont understand what you want then :)

how about something to make GS highlight first phrase said by any person, which would only work on #Help?
a rule that it should beep on any message in #help but only if its timeout is reached. That might work or not?Sounds good, and the fact it wouldn't produce way too many sounds sounds even better! Hopefully there are no rakes I didn't notice. Maybe you could ask someone else so they could have a fresh view on this.
2.2 never crashed on my bad connection, thanks, Tomi))
Honestly the last development version of the snooper is f@#!ed up so badly that I need to find a very calmed state of my life to fix the problems and to be able to continue the development.
by the way to be sure that this is a problem with great snooper you can test with another snooper. usually they use the same methods and parameters to do their job, so if both snoopers fail then it is most likely a bug of the game (a graphics bug maybe) and if the other snooper works, then gs spoils something.Thanks! I should've tried that earlier... Same problem with Web Snooper so it's not a problem in your program. I will try an older Nvidia driver.
Apparently, there is no notification sound when someone from your buddy's list hosts game on WormNET. I tried to check around settings, but couldn't find it too. It's a nice little add, so if you're planning to do more upgrades, Tomi - maybe put that one too!?He can add names to the notificator (in hoster names) and then it will notify him when somebody from the list hosts a game.
Thx.
hey Tomi, would you consider implementing a right click option that performs /url? 'Copy game URL'

sorry to hear.
Also I can't use WormNAT2 via GS it shows my game on WormNet but only for a few seconds and disappears or not appears at all. I turned off 'Force IP' and looks like it's the same if I use or not 'Using WormNAT2?' in GS I just can't host whatever I do BUT if I try to host with WNAT2 just in-game without GS it works. ???I will try to add force ip feature, however I don't know if it is possible ;)
Is it possible to host W:A steam version via Great Snooper and if it is why I can't do it?shouldn't have any problems
Also, any chance of reopening game that's been hosted via GS?https://worms2d.info/WkRehost
what's the sympton? does the game start but the host doesn't appear? can you describe the problem a lil bit more detail?
Hi! Sup? Yesterday I wanted to post here a nice message, but accidentally I clos;ed the browser
XD well ye the new words should be translated, but there are not too much.. i don't really feel like i want to collect the new words and look up people who made translations and etc.
Helloo... I cant make wormnat2 work, i get inside the host but it could not be seen in AG, im launching wa from steam that could maybe cause the problem?I had similar problem because of firewall iirc
For me it was interesting that wormnat hosting started to work again after months. I think the issue was not snooper related, since it hasn't changed for years and worked for years. So something went wrong with wormnat or wa server or they got updated. But I just checked it and it worked (however I tried it twice, because nobody joined the first host :()
Have you tried on other systems like another notebook / pc? Since it works for most people I think the issue is with your system. Maybe you are using some special tool or antivirus software which kills it. But there should be an error log about the problem in the errorlog.txt. Type /log in a channel to locate the file.
How come it works for you? Hosting/joining from GS just makes it crash on my system.
And it's been like that since 1.49 version or something.
Vok, try to extract / copy the files in a different folder, then you'll have a fresh start. Other than that I might have missed an exception handling :D and if check. Net framework is installed correctly
Is there some way to change this behavior or it's always like that with snoopers?Nope, people have used this before https://worms2d.info/WkRehost

Public messages are not filtered, just private ones.Never mind. I have resolved the Issue. Some settings were tweaked wrong.
After some testing I have 3 things to say:This happens to me too, and in The Wheat Snooper too. Is this the case for everyone using these programs? Any solution?
1) thank you Tomi for a fantastic app,
2) all app related features are working smooth,
3) the only downside is when I try to use the /open command after last game was finished, the game tells me:
"Cannot open a Direct IP game on WormNET"...
...so I assume that the snooper is using a different method of hosting at WN, than the game's engine by default, so there's no info about game being removed after 5 minutes or possibility to reopen it.
Is there some way to change this behavior or it's always like that with snoopers?
i keep getting same error when i launch the app. and it works perfectly after clicking ok. looks like the app want me to update it but i could not find any. there is no other issue but it is kinda annoying. is there a way to solve this?
