Anyone who recently imported a 'downloader from the future' should have it fixed today. The updated downloader would only work correctly on above v422 or so, leading older clients to get a variety of annoying errors about 'md5', 'hex' or 'additional_info' when either booting or trying to inspect the broken object. A user helpfully created an update-which is rolled into today's release if you missed it-but unfortunately users who were running older clients ran into an unusual versioning bug. It seems gelbooru changed their markup recently, and our default downloader stopped pulling tags, at least for some. I appreciate the help from Codexx to get this going.

An archive has been migrated to >/hydrus/, and all the links across the program and help are updated to reflect the changes. I am sometimes slow to get back to my messages, but I try to get to everything. I am happy to answer any questions anyone has. I am not a very good or professional programmer, and I am always overwhelmed with items to add or fix or just bad code to clean up on my todo list, but hydrus can do some fun stuff anyway. I am just a normal Anon, and I work on it alone. I strongly advise checking out the getting started guide in the help linked above.

If you are new to hydrus, there are several new concepts, and it can get quite complicated. The plan is that whenever this General fills up, we will migrate it there to continue the archive. The old /hydrus/ is archived at >/hydrus/. I hope we can bundle the old Release, Q&A, and Bug Report threads into a General here and enjoy a much smoother and more reliable site. I have never been a great or comfortable BO, and Codexx kindly offered to host me here on /t/. After procrastinating for a long time, I finally shut down the old /hydrus/ on 8kun.
