PDreport.pdf is in the Extra folder 📂
Updated Nov. 08th, 2024
Added some colour to the PDF.
Titles, package names, and links are now easier to find.
I have acquired and added the data for Voxel PD.
I have also sorted out the problem with Survival Pixel Dungeon and Overgrown Pixel Dungeon.
Survival is based on Overgrown and the package name wasn’t changed.
Although not APK’s, I have added the JAVA version of Pixel Dungeon v1.9.2a, and Pixel Dungeon Plus v1.1.21.0 for Windows x64 by Stormtek.
I have finally been able to port the PICO-8 version of Pixel Dungeon to Android and get it to work without altering the original code.
I have added it to the archive.
Thanks to a contact in mainland China, I have added about a dozen CN language translations for various Pixel Dungeons.
As of this post, that brings the archive to 413 apk’s.
I have completed uploading the archive. The old GDrive has been removed. The PDF has been updated for links 🔗
A WebDAV interface has been added. You will need to login to download from the PDF or website. This is to prevent leeching.
If anyone has a PD apk that you want added, send me a PM here with the link and I’ll do so.
I have removed a duplicate of Voxel PD.
I have removed YASPD v4.13 as it turns out that it is the same as Powered Pixel Dungeon v4.13, renamed by the coder.
I have been granted 10GB of storage and am uploading the archive. This will take a while.
The next PDF will link to the APK files.
I have added Pixel Dungeon Trainer and Pixel Darkest Dungeon plus mod.
The icon issue is with APKanalyzer on both PC and Android. Multiple images icon fault the program.
Android can do it but not the extraction tools.
This is where I have to do it manually.
The REarranged icons are corrected and will be in the next update.
I am going to give this a few days to allow for further review.
If nothing else comes up I will update the PDF here.
Extended Experienced PD entry shows Serenity PD icon.
Shorter PD entry uses Minecraft PD icon.
Rat King Adventures entry uses EZ Dungeon icon.
Experienced PD 1.x is not present (it’s a different mod from Experienced PD 2.x).
Appreciate the review. Making corrections and will upload a revised version soon.
Rearranged PD uses debug icons which is incorrect.
My own guess for why there is so many incorrect icons is:
a) you choose icons manually, which is not really a good thing, if this thing is supposed to be automated
b) your tools just pick
ic_launcher.png
… which is incorrect choice for many post-2019 forks due to actual two-layer format of icon, composed of foreground and background pngs; you should compose a full icon, if those layer files are availableAlso, a fatal flaw: all download links point to your local file system, so they are useless to anyone who doesn’t have access to your I: hard drive.
I will address the REarranged icons.
I use several different tools, mainly apkanalyzer for icons. Some apk’s as you point out have multiple images and a few don’t follow standard protocol at all. When that happens the tools report no icon. I then do a manual extraction and edit that are then added to the final “tweaks” so that the next time I run the tools I don’t have to do it again manually.
The link’s point to my archive. My PD archive is close to 7GB and I connect to the Internet via cellphone which makes uploading painful. I am hoping to get my GDrive updated and then I will change the links to point to GDrive.
“My own guess for why there is so many incorrect…” Less than a dozen corrections on more than 400 games isn’t so many. I appreciate the reviews and don’t mind making the corrections. Once the bug’s are hammered out, updating and additions will be easy. That has been a long time goal for this project.
When that happens the tools report no icon.
At least for me, the ic_launcher layers are reported as mipmaps and are always at same locations, so I don’t what is the block here to automatic retrieval of icons. I do not mean to insult, I am just suggesting how to automate it even further and with more compatibility.
I connect to the Internet via cellphone which makes uploading painful.
That’s too relatable…
Less than a dozen corrections on more than 400 games isn’t so many.
That’s really only because I pointed out games I know personally. There might be more PDs in list, that show debug icon because they did not set non-layered icon properly.
Also, here’s a question: do all
mod
andzaystringofnumbers
mods do translations? or there is something else?The modder is somewhat vague but does say that they do Asian language adaptations and changes that generally make game play easier.
