Update 2.2.1.2 Beta

For those of you who were interested in the ability to include internet images, there is now a release that includes this. You can see it at http://www.lukepaynesoftware.com/lsrotator/beta

This update can download images from RSS feeds or static internet images. There is also now an option to allow the application to decide which is the best button set to use on a per image basis. Many scenarios in which people were unable to use the program have now been resolved as well.

I like the software, but there is a major problem with it's use, or I am not doing something right.

Multiple users....

I have 2 users on my computer. When it is just me logging in, it works fine (i have not tried 2.0 yet)

As soon as the other user logs in, it blows up and no longer works till I re-run it under my account.

I also tried running it under both users, but it just doesn't work.

I will need to wait till I get home and run some tests on 2.0 to give more in-depth description of the problem.

If you are aware of the issue. I might suggest trying to make it an all users function.

The fact now that you can have unlimited number of images is very awesome.

but again, it needs to work for all users (no matter how many users login) on a PC.

DOH!! I forgot to fix this up, I originally only set it up to be used by one user but was going to make it for all users. I'll have a look into it and post back when i've got it fixed up.

Thanks guys :)

Thank you for the quick reply and the program. If you can fix this, you absolutely have a winning program that can not be beat.

Well, I have not tested 2.0.

But I think I will keep checking back and wait for next version. Then give my glowing recommendation and maybe a mirror if you need it (maybe), I'm on godaddy, so I don't know what the bandwidth would be like. In respect to alloted monthly traffic.

As a side note, Multiple users is not broken in 2.0 anymore.

It still works when the user who set it up logs in it changes. When another user logs in, it just keeps the last picture till the orignal user logs back in, then it changes again. This was not the case in the 1.x versions.

I am looking forward to the next version.

Thanks Luke.

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
