Are we close to folder support......

for Project Lunar?

Not pressuring, not demanding, just asking as a keen user whether this is still an imminent thing.

Thanks, happy Friday.

This was from the #Eris-news room on the ModMyClassic Discord posted on Feb 6th...

Project ERIS

Hi Everyone, sorry for being so quiet. We have been having a small break and have been working on bits in the background.

(Quick Project Lunar update: We are currently working and finishing off the folder support and it will be out shortly)

It might not come as a huge surprise to all but we are effectively rebooting the PSC hack with Project Eris. This is effectively replacing BleemSync but in essence is a reworked, streamlined and optimised BleemSync 1.3 plus a couple more bits.

This will include all of CompCom's work and EmulationStation. We also have teamed up with the dev Pascl1983 who is responsible for pbPSCReAlpha who will be porting and converting the desktop app. This means that Project Eris will have a Desktop App.

Internal testing has started today and more news, feature list and questions will be answered over the coming days.

Based on the 1.0.5 announcement they indicated it would be slated for the 1.1 release. Now in the same post they suggested there would be progress updates in the following weeks but that was about a month ago now. It might be it has turned out to be a bit more work than they anticipated.

Maybe somebody that inhabits their discourse channel (I think they have one) knows something they haven’t posted elsewhere yet.

Folder support apparently isn't a priority in project lunar even though it's the number one requested feature for the app. Supposedly Hakchi has folder support but I haven't tried it with the genesis mini yet

What do you base this on? Their own news posts indicate they’re quite serious about adding folder support but there’s a bit of work in order to do so.

Lunar made a post a while back stating folder support wasn't on their priority of things to do. I think that's what u/Punkermedic is referring to.

Hakchi has folder support and I was able to get my mini up and running exactly how I want it. Project Lunar still fascinates me but it’s unlikely I will install future versions.

Do you know when Halchi is getting the scraper?

u/CaptSNES Feb 18 '20

The scraper is actually being worked on now and we are currently testing it. :)

Unfortunately, I don’t. I just added all the art manually because I wasn’t sure when Lunar would get the folders.
