so here i’m hitting Tools | Renoise and then pressing “Login” at the bottom right corner and i get this:

This seems to happen sometimes, not sure why. Seems to be solved by repeated attempts or reloading the page.
If you have some aggressive extension that might block cross site redirect or drop cookies, those might be intefering with the forum auth, but this is just a guess as this happened to people without extensions as well.
If this issue persists, please try providing more info (what browser, extensions etc) because so far we couldn’t reproduce this problem reliably.
Guess it’s a typo but to be clear the address is Tools | Renoise.

hi, do you know what the filesize limit of tools currently are? 15.4mb was not accepted, 14.0mb was not accepted.
So the login worked?
What does the error say for the upload? The error should be descriptive.
The current file upload limit is 16MB but the site is also rejecting tools that have an uncompressed size larger than 32MB, this could be set to something larger but a limit must exist still.
yeah i eventually managed to.
but for safari, i never get a response forr the upload, had to switch to chrome, then i get 413 request entity too large.
my uncompressed size is 33 729 557 bytes (47,9 MB on disk) for 5 376 items
would be neat if it was 64mb uncompressed just so there wouldn’t be future issues
Please try again, the limits should be extended now.

fantastic @unless
@tnt - here’s a july build. your april one is… well, 3 months old. the global groove stuff has been fixed"
@esaruoho it’s your tool so you should do what you want, but isn’t it smarter to split out the .rex & .rex2 import stuff out of paketti as this takes up most of the size of your tool?
Cool!
You might want to check out the updated docs about new fields you can have in your manifest so the site will add nice links on the right (like links to source, donation etc).

fantastic, thanks! i’ll definitely add source. is the donation only one field? i have paypal, patreon, ko-fi and github sponsors links set up
Yes all of these fields are a single url, pick one that has the most traffic (and have the rest in your readme or similar).

wow this is fantastic. so i can have a dynamically updated thumbnail + cover photo linked in manifest.xml and that’s it. this is great!!!
i gotta figure out which image i should use for it, but it’s gonna be neat.
i’ll give it a shot now! thanks for telling me about the documentation updates!
EDIT:
'/Users/esaruoho/Library/Preferences/Renoise/V3.5.0/Scripts/Tools/org.lackluster.Paketti.xrnx/' contains an invalid manifest.
Expected an empty string as 'CoverPath'
or an existing path, relative from the bundle
path in the global manifest xml.
Please remove this tool or contact the author (lackluster | esaruoho@icloud.com) for assistance...
looks like the image needs to be in the bundle itself. that’s also cool! i’ll do that 
Guess I still have to add more readme to the site that are specific to the tool upload but you can also skip the image paths in the manifest if you just have the two images at the root of your xrnx with names cover.png and thumbnail.png, this will automatically get added.
Alternatively you can upload these later by going Edit on your tool.
i really like the idea that uploading the tool will provide all these, including the thumbnail + cover. i’ll definitely be using that
i’m just rolling a build and starting to upload, BTW… i put the tool in but it didn’t update the coverphoto.
is it because i did <CoverPath>toolspath/paketti_cover.png</CoverPath>
?
the path should be relative to the root of your xrnx so if you have
tool.xrnx
└── paketti_cover.png
if should just be <CoverPath>paketti_cover.png</CoverPath>
Note, this still haven’t seen enough testing so there might be some issue. One thing for sure is it should give you an error on upload that describes what the problem was, if this doesn’t happen but the tool is otherwise updated then I’ll have to fix this.
Having the cover be at the root with no CoverPath field and named cover.png definitely works.

as in
