My Browser Builds (Part 4)

Kinda ironic that Moonchild pushed this commit to actually fix browser crashes on particular websites. If it's this change that actually causes the crash I'm experiencing, then (at least) the "Win32 SSE" NM28 binaries aren't compatible anymore with their targeted hardware. Do you think you can fix this? I can't code in C/C++, so I won't be of any help I'm afraid. :(

I cannot order anymore MST Gizmoplex episodes. The URL displays a blank white screen. It last worked on "The Shape of Things to Come".

Will a UserAgent string bring this back?

It needs support for dynamic module importing and doesn't seem to care about the user agent at first glance.

Doesn't look like any XP browsers will work.

What about MyPal 68 or one of those Chinese Chromium variants?

Oh, my version is 28.10.6a1 32-bit 2022-09-29

WORKS in 360Chrome v13.5.

If you are going to run XP (such as myself), having 360Chrome is kind of a MUST.  It doesn't have to be you "default", but you WILL need it for "some" of your web sites.  And the list keeps growing and growing for those that you will need it.

I have four set up already. sp52 for daily browsing, and a 360 variant, artifox and mypal ready to go when things go wrong.

Works in DCBrowser, and 360Chrome v13 and 13.5.

All firefox based forks show blanc screen only.

For those that have been following along over the years, a reminder that an increasing number of "modern" web sites now require three different types of javascript functions that break older web browsers.
     1)  Nullish coalescing operator ??  --  syntax leftExpr ?? rightExpr
     2)  Optional chaining operator ?.  --  syntax 1) obj.val?.prop, 2) obj.val?.[expr], or 3) obj.func?.(args)
     3)  Regex unicode property escapes

The first two have been partially addressed in "palefill" and "chromefill" addons - but they will not solve all web sites that require nullish coalescing or optional chaining operators.

The third type requires Chrome v64 or Firefox v78 or higher (ie, don't hold your breath on this ever getting fixed in any UXP or Mypal browser versions!).

-------------------------------------------

@roytam1 could you please answer the following questions?

- Your ArcticFox 40 build requires SSE2?
- Your Firefox 28 build doesn't require SSE (or later)?
- Your RetroZilla 2.2 / RZ browser 2.2 builds don't require SSE (or later)?
- Your Palefill Polyfill 1.23 build doesn't replace your GitHub / GitLab Polyfill 1.2.19.3 build?

-------------------------------------------

Some off-topic question:

Anyone of you can access one or both FTP servers below (I get a time-out on both servers)?
ftp://ftp.dyu.edu.tw/pub/
ftp://ftp.cc.ntut.edu.tw/pub/
I'm asking because I need at least one file from these servers (they have the same content) and they are the only source of it, I know - even the Wayback Machine doesn't have it (as far as I know), because it doesn't archive FTP sources / FTPs.

A complete mirror of them (don't know how many GiB or TiB) would be extremely great!

The background: Maybe you know, I have all these BIOSes, drivers, manuals and stuff on my website which were partially called "lost" before I found and re-uploaded them to the live web. The file in question is another "lost" file.

kind regards and thanks in advance

No problem here to access ftp://ftp.dyu.edu.tw/pub/ directly in New Moon 28. What file is it? :dubbio:

Awesome to see you @Roytam1 updated Arctic Fox.
Thanks as always for putting up our builds on your site, soggi ... hope you are well.

No problem...this time I thought "Why not putting more builds to the mirror on my website?". I'm OK, but I still don't have the time to answer some older posts... :rolleyes:. Hope you're well, too!?

Thanks for your very fast answer! It's this, respectively this, file - Diamond FireGL 1000 Pro BIOS update. I tried NM28, PM31, WinSCP and PM31 with FoxyProxy + WinSCP with Proxy from Canada, China, Czech Republic, Kazakhstan and Taiwan...no success! Let me know if you had success! And as said above, a mirror of one of the FTPs (especially the subfolder /Hardware/) would be extremely great.

kind regards

I've uploaded it to MediaFire. Here is the download link: https://www.mediafire.com/file/erjx4k038m2qm3h/b1kp154.exe/file link.gif BTW, I am from Germany, too. I didn't need to establish a connection via Proxy or VPN. I connected to that server directly via my provider.

Cheers, AstroSkipper faireuncoucou.gif
