## FAQ
|
|
|
|
### Why do some applications say TRACK ONLY?
|
|
|
|
As the name implies, these application versions are only tracked, not pulled.
|
|
This was done because we _can't_ pull these resources, but you may still care to know when these
|
|
resources have updates so you can pull them manually. For example: NetherSX2 can't provide an APK
|
|
for legal reasons, but you'll get update notifications so you don't have to manually check or be
|
|
stuck with outdated resources.
|
|
|
|
### How do I use TRACK ONLY resources?
|
|
|
|
When you get notified of an update to your track only resource:
|
|
|
|
- visit the link to your resource
|
|
- download it manually
|
|
- in obtainium > click resource > click "Mark Updated"
|
|
|
|
### How do I updated Obtainium Emulation Pack?
|
|
|
|
Same as install method. It'll update existing resources.
|
|
It will not remove any other resources you've added.
|
|
|
|
### A new switch emulator has released! Can you add it?
|
|
|
|
No.
|
|
|
|
### A note about stable, beta, nightly and canary versions of the same app
|
|
|
|
You cannot install more than one version of the same app. For example: You must choose between RetroArch (stable) or RetroArch (nightly). You cannot have both.
|
|
|
|
### How does this work?
|
|
|
|
Obtainium allows you to filter for links on a page using regular expression (regex)
|
|
It also allows you to follow multiple links using regex.
|
|
see <https://regexr.com/7rmf7> for a basic example of how this works.
|
|
|
|
### Can this break?
|
|
|
|
Yes. Absolutely it can.
|
|
Any of the scrapers that use regex can break if the maintainer changes their page.
|
|
The applications pulling from GitHub are more stable and less likely to break.
