I have a problem: the download starts no problem with right clicking, but when the process reaches 100% it just freezes.
Cant download a single rom/iso.
Im using opera/win10.
ps. i have reinstalled the script several time and also tested it on vivaldi
did you try with chrome?

opera is chromium based

Try temporarily disabling your antivirus software and/or defragmenting the disk where your downloads lands and see if this keeps happening.

I have done all of the things that are recommended in such cases. weird extensions and anti-virus included.
don't think that my ssd needs to defraged

I have the same problem the script does not work for me in the browser opera today October 1, 2021 when I click it, the window closes by itself and does not download anything and does nothing

I am using the tampermonkey and it opera

Doesn't seem to work anymore. Redirects to a new tab to show the server error. Used the script on the same machine, and it worked fine. Different host errors depending on the platform, like psx2psp psxredump or may (sega mega drive). "Save link as" also doesn't work, shows "Error: network error" in chrome and "unknown error" in firefox

@CorrodedSanctuary already tried that. but even if it did work - that seems like too much of a hustle for a single download

I have the same issue unless I use Free Download Manager. Use Tampermonkey in chrome and right-click the download link and select save link as and FDM should capture it. I never had luck with firefox working with this site though, just chrome. Make sure after installing FDM to go into preferences and install the FDM chrome extension. Aside from that, I do not believe you really need to change any other settings. Link is below. I hope this helps! FDM: https://www.freedownloadmanager.org/

@Stiletto71 I tried installing fdm on my desktop, and then tried saving the link again with firefox, and it worked for some reason, I just had to "allow download" in the firefox menu, FDM didn't catch that. Idk how, but the problem just fixed itself. Thank you for your suggestions lads, I'll try it next time

fine, i know how to downlaod Dreamcast iso's.
frist, you select a ps2 games, then download it, and now, stop it. then view like url link frist of ip address.
then, goto Dreamcast game page, right click and copy server original link. (mayabe this is x.x.x./"random string"/Dreamcast/"gamename.zip")
now! replace this original linke's x.x.x.x ip to ps2 game linke's ip.
final, paste this like to any download client. download it!

i test it on 2022.01.22.
ps2 game is: https://www.emuparadise.me/Sony_Playstation_2_ISOs/Transformers_-_Revenge_of_the_Fallen_(Europe)_(En,Fr,De,Es,It)/154736
dc gdi game is: https://www.emuparadise.me/Sega_Dreamcast_ISOs/House_of_the_Dead_2,_The_(USA)/74

it work fine.

@Visntse

http://154736/happyUUKAm8913lJJnckLiePutyNak/Dreamcast/House%20of%20the%20Dead%202,%20The%20(USA).zip << when placing the link in my web browser it does not detect it http://154736/happyUUKAm8913lJJnckLiePutyNak/Dreamcast/House%20of%20the%20Dead%202,%20The%20(USA).zip << this string is from your example using that games, is this what you mean? Could you provide me with an example, because more or less I understood him, another question, how do I eliminate the % and 20 that appear? When I copy the link and paste it in a notepad as in the photo, this appears, and I don't know what you mean by pasting it in a download client

@Visntse
when I want to download a dreamcast game with the active script, the server that it has no longer works and when I copy the link of the ps2 game the ip of that game does not appear, only the id but not the ip

Just edit the script and make a simple change of constant ip, like :

  // Others: 50.7.189.186
  //ORIGINAL-LINE//const ipDownload = "50.7.92.186";
  const ipDownload = "162.210.194.49";  

After of do that save the script and reload page with F5 or Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl + R, i think if possible you can download DC titles, just notice the IP is the new value :

Click the link of your prefer, and wait the modification works XD. for see the save dialog

Select Save option and accept, and the download should be start

You can try with the another link just for try the script is working fine, again just notice is the right ip

wait for the save dialog appears, select save and accept

and the download should be start, i hope this work for yours.

Thank you very much for this script is really useful

hello, this edit only works on 1.2.3, I'm using 'Emuparadise fix' 1.3.1 and that doesn't have the secondary download link nor does it show the IP, it just has one download link which works for ps2games but not for dreamcast games

Right click and choose 'save as' ....

@filevans what is that script or github that mentions I can't find it, could you provide it, this script works for me and read the previous comment, that solves the problem with dreamcast and it already worked for me

@khtp yes I got it working now using 1.2.3, edited it with the IP address lines as above, working on Dreamcast games finally! It doesn't work on the newer script 1.3.1:

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/415598-emuparadise-fix

@filevans Works like a charm. Thank you for your effort. :)

okay, maybe @inukaze tell's can be work.
my way like @inukaze
i mean you frist download ps2 game, then you can see this game download link. (i use idm download client.)
this link start with some ip...
and now, go to dc game page. scroll page to download content, right click mouse to copy page display dc game iso url.
then past this url to notepad, then replace this url start ip with ps2 game iso url start ip.

like this:

1. ps2 game url: x.x.x.x/somecode/ps2/ps2iso.iso
2. dc game url: y.y.y.y/somecode/dc/dciso.iso
3. replace y.y.y.y to x.x.x.x
4. final can be download url link: x.x.x.x/somecode/dc/dciso.iso
   and now, copy step 4 link to any download client, down it, it will be work.

by the way, i use this INFVAL 1.2.3 script. and so funny~ why u don't use this? why u want use old script?
my mother language isn't english, so... sorry for some language type errors.

v1.2.3 works in Opera 104 for me only in November 2023.

v1.2.3 works in Opera 104 for me only in November 2023.

I've tried this on Chrome 120 and Opera 106 both on windows 10 and no luck..

I've tried this on Chrome 120 and Opera 106 both on windows 10 and no luck..

last week I tried to use it with Brave and also had no luck. It seems something related to Blink engine, because on Firefox it worked fine.

PS: also worked on Waterfox, both using tampermonkey (didn't try greasemonkey)

errors in line 55 and 56? causing the script to not run
