License Generator 1.2.0 (Patreon)

This is a minor stylistic and diagnostic update to License Generator.

There have been no changes to the license scheme, the current version 0.0.lic is still in use. If you already have a license, this post does not apply to you.

Download and instructions

The download is in the attachment of this post.

Please read the instructions included in the download. An online mirror is also available here.

Changes

Stylistic

After authentication your browser is redirected to a page on the informative website, which is less barebones than the old results page. In case of a failure, links to the FAQ and support channels are also displayed.

Functional

Before connecting to Patreon, a basic connection test is done to make sure Patreon can be reached. This fails the process earlier to make clear it's something in the connection and not the eligibility status.

Alternative ports are used, in case other software is already using port 8080. The two other ports used are 8086 and 8032. This should make the authentication step slightly more robust against other software also hosting some server.

Support

If you experience problems using the tool, please reach out to me through Discord, where sharing diagnostic files is possible, unlike through Patreon's basic messaging system. If you have other questions about your subscription, Patreon is alright too.
