I can download it just fine. Which browser are you using?

I've downloaded and installed Firefox and can reproduce the problem, though it downloads just fine using Chrome and IE9, can you try with any other browser than Firefox?

Use right click, save-as.

It's something to do with the MIME headers the forum sends for attachments not being correct.

I'm sorry, but this really does bother me.

In the user interface on the first page of the Twitter tab (according to the screen shots), one of the lines has the phrase "PIN number" in it.  That means "Personal identification number number".  Take out the "number" part, and that will be fine.  You could even put in "PIN code" instead.

I'm sorry to be kind of a jerk about it, but as I said, it does bother me.

Otherwise, I'm about to give it a look and see how I can play around with it.  It looks feature-packed, which is good. :)

Hello, I'm new to using this mod and I love it when it works.

I'm just having problems with it detecting Audiosurf. It probably only works 5% of the time. I've tried starting Audiosurf first, then YAAP. Tried the reverse. Tried launching Audiosurf through YAAP, and it just refuses to detect Audiosurf in most cases. I've tried starting Audiosurf when YAAP doesn't have a playlist loaded, and tried with one loaded, pre-tagged, or un-tagged songs. I'm just getting so confused.

Is there a trick I need to do to have YAAP detect Audiosurf? Or do I have to make sure to place YAAP in a certain folder so it will autodetect more reliably?

Edit: I tried a different tactic. Start Audiosurf or YAAP and making sure that YAAP doesn't have Autoconnect on. I have to manually connect at the starting menu screen on Audiosurf. The autoconnect just is a little crazy for some reason, but I'm okay with manual connect~
Edit2: Even that started failing now. Once again at a loss on any tricks to do.

Thanks so much for an easy way to tag/untag songs! Makes the game like new again ^-^

Manual connect is the most reliable and make sure Audiosurf is on the 'character' screen, before that Audiosurf doesn't respond and YAAP will fail to connect.

If it does connect, it only does for one play session. If I play a song and then need to close Audiosurf, then bring it back up soon (like I need to go leave the PC for a few minutes or use the PC for something else) then YAAP cannot connect again for a very long time.

It won't matter where or how often I hit the Connect button.

Sometimes it can reconnect soon if I restart YAAP then try to bring up Audiosurf again, mainly when I start Audiosurf first, but I always have to hit Connect to AS a second before I click Play in Audiosurf's main menu.

I guess I can just try to keep playing around with YAAP and Audiosurf to just try to get it to work together when I wanna play lol.

The most reliable way of connecting YAAP and AS is:

1. Open up YAAP
2. Click the "Connect automatically" button (this will be remembered between sessions so you only need to click it once)
3. Open up Audiosurf and wait for it to reach the characters screen

YAAP should be connected to AS now.

It only works the first time, if Audiosurf or YAAP gets closed and I try to reopen and reconnect, then it won't work for quite a long time.

Such as, last night YAAP crashed for some unknown reason (I think the crash was just a fluke) and when I reopened YAAP, it couldn't reconnect. Or if I finish a song and if I close Audiosurf for a little while and try to bring it back up, Auto or Manual connect won't work. It's weird.  :-\

I also wanted to have YAAP play the songs in classic freeride instead of visualizer, so since I could use YAAP to start songs even from the song selection I tried selecting the classic freeride first, then clicking YAAP's play button.
It actually worked, but there were some major problems: If I do this, I cannot minimize Audiosurf correctly when pausing. (I haven't set any hotkeys yet, so I wanted to use the YAAP buttons. I had to minimize because I use Audiosurf fullscreen.) It stays in the foreground while the Windows taskbar and programs occasionally flash up. If I spam the button I can still get it to minimize, so it's not that huge of a problem, but it's very annoying. When I stopped the playlist and brought Audiosurf back to character selection using YAAP, I activated the "no blocks" option for freeride.

Then a really big problem showed up: Only about two seconds of my song were played and then YAAP skipped to the next song. And when I wanted to stop YAAP from playing 21 two-second-"songs", I couldn't reach it because Audiosurf hogged the screen, so I spammed the Minimize button again... I'd rather have the whole song instead, so I wasn't really happy with that ;)

I restarted both YAAP and Audiosurf, then I tried all of this again and the same problems showed up. But at least everything else works fine, the program is really useful.

Oh, and I'm using Windows XP SP3. Maybe it works fine on Vista/7, I can't try it though.

Edit: Why are there two "Close Audiosurf" Buttons in YAAP?  :o

Did you know that you can pan the camera if you press and hold the middle mouse button/wheel while playing a song? Cool feature if you want to have a look at the road or your skysphere. But you can't control your ship while doing that. Do it during a slow part of the song.

I think I should go back to this for the last time and release a final bug-fix version so I can officially call it done.

Because yes :P

oh and, before calling it FINAL, make sure you can actually change the twitter message to your liking.
