Every time I open the Autorefresher (downloaded it from here) it gives me an error along the lines of "Autorefresher has encountered an error and needs to close." a.k.a. the error screen that asks you if you want to send Microsoft an error report, etc.

Asking around, most people seem to tell me it's a compatibility issue. I got the autorefresher working on my other computer which has a 32-bit OS, while the computer I am on now has a 64-bit OS.

Does anyone know how to fix this problem, and/or run Autorefresh in 32-bit compatibility on my 64-bit OS? Thanks.
 
Im not sure, if you have vista, you might need admin privileges.
 
Well... discussing this is against the forum rules, but give me a PM and i could help
 
> discussing this is against the forum rules

It is? o_O Nobody told me. Though, I suppose it is kind of a hack....

Anyway, I would expect you need some kind of patch to the program to get it to work.
 
Sorry, then, If this is a hack then you know, then it would get people banned from b-net, but seeing as it is very common to see people using it, no ones against it, its just a 3rd party program..
 
> it would get people banned from b-net
Well if its for custom games then it wouldn't.
 
Word from higher up is:

Unsupported. No autorefreshers here.

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
