Did a large number of images just change URL?
In my app Blacksmith I have a few hardcoded weapons I downloaded a bit ago, and now the images for that weapon's talents are all giving me 404 errors. Did the image URLs suddenly change?

3 RepliesAlmost every file the publish has an md5 hash of the contents in the file name. Some or many of the icons change with every published update of the manifest. I assume there's a build system for the icons and the art dept routinely tweaks the palette and causes most of the icons to change subtly.

Yeap, this tend to happen almost every month, mostly the subclass image or things like that. What i did is i created a desktop app that checks if there is a new version of the manifest and updates a file that i have on DropBox (with a generated compress file that has some json objects that i create out of the database), and the android app that i created checks if there is a new version of that file every day and if there is it will download it and replace the local data of the app.

All image URLs are unfortunately subject to change between content versions (though usually won't change unless something in their composition has changed in some manner). My recommendation would be to check the manifest in your app to see whether new content exists when your app launches, and grab the appropriate data!
