Like the title says, I’ve been working on a new version of PG.
I stopped working on version 1 because I wasn’t happy with the database, or the loading process that took forever. I’d never dealt with such sizable collections of interlinked items and made a lot of design decisions that, going forward, just made it so undesirable to work with.
So I set out to make V2 with a redesigned engine to resolve these previous design issues. And I did, sort of, but along the way I decided to change the UI, and that….was a flop. Along with some silly bugs and a UI framework I was really struggling to bend to my will, I wasn’t happy at all with V2 either.
So here is a trial version of my 3rd attempt. This is just a test. You can’t save anything. This version has no database behind it, anything you do will disappear as soon the app is closed. On v2, I put in a lot of work before realizing it was a bad approach. Right now I am just looking for feedback to avoid this. Hopefully, v3 will be the best of both v1 and v2.
Goals
- only one screen per item type
- fast
- images will be either url or file, no more saving to database
- nice ui
- all in app operations performed in memory, database used only for loading and saving changes
- improved searching (and/or, dropping sql support)
- improved folder display
- singular exe file
- paging
- an “organized” tag for scenes, with the goal of being able to have a 100% organized library
Opinions welcome
Hey man thanks for all the work you have done thus far. I just ran across your creation last night and fell in love with the idea. I was wanting to know if there is a different download for 64bit system. I only ask because the .exe file i downloaded had (32bit) attached to the end of it. Also do you by chance have an idiots guide or anything like that. I understand your always making it better so its always changing, I mean like the root basics. I am not the greatest with computers is why im asking. Again thanks for all your work so far and cant wait to see what this evolves into.

nope same app for 32 and 64 bit. theres no guide, although i have someone helping me make a better site which will hopefully have some helpful info, but i am just really lazy. and what time i do spend i would rather spend on PG itself then a guide. it’s coming. slowly.

A category tree would be great.

And self-created categories in the Star. What will be automatically applied when add a Scene. As an example I take hair color at the Star, so the range is applied when add a scene.

Own buttons at the Star. Thank you.

Just found out about the update but love the idea. I really apprecaite the hard work. In V3 can we able the following features for the models. Tatooes or not, more breast sizes, more specific ethnicities and retired or not.

May I offer 2 suggestions 1. A weekly list of tasks or items to test. 2. A weekly list of known bugs.

This seems much slicker than previous versions so far. OF course, I havent added the complete amount of files I would on a full release / beta.
I can’t wait to see the fully working version, So i can see how it handles categories, filepaths, tags, etc.
So far so good!

UI seem to be nice and way faster than V2 or V1. But for me this is the worse version release because of the no Save feature. I will not spend hours of tagging categorizing without it.

Well yeah I would hope not. It’s coming.

My guess, download the latest .NET framework from the Microsoft website, that solved a lot for me.

Hi. I’ve just discovered Pornganizer so I’m not sure about all the features but will it be possible to set the path to the files relative? For example if I have my files on a external drive they are always in the same folder but the drive letter changes. Could I have everything on this drive (porn and pornganizer with database)?
LikeLike
for my setup, i have all my stuff on the B:\ drive of one machine
on a different machine, i map a network drive to the same drive letter. then you can just run PG as normal on either machine.
LikeLike
Yeah, I guess I could just change the letter to be the same everywhere. I’m so stupid, lol. Thanks for the answer. This V3 version looks really awesome by the way!
