What's new in Videochat Extension?
- Added a WiP 'advanced' mode for Omegle. It is our full-fledged mode, giving you much more than geolocation and a dark theme.
- At the moment, by enabling this 'advanced' mode, you will be able to see geolocation in a more convenient format, see how long you are in a conversation, open the stranger's approximate location on the world's map directly in the extension, open the list of torrents downloaded by a stranger, take screenshots, enable picture-in-picture mode, open the changelog, and even block unnecessary locations or search for those that you need.
- Omegle: the extension will now remember your choices in the TOS box to fill in the checkboxes for you. All you have to do is confirm.
- Added geolocation features to auto-skip predefined countries/regions/cities.
- Slightly reworked all geolocation features to search for specific locations.
- Coomeet Free: improved the UI of the control panel - now it is more intuitive and takes up less space.
- Updated the dark theme to match changes on 49 supported sites.
- Minor fixes and improvements.
-----
Omegle (simple 'minimalism' mode).
- The extension will now remember your choices in the TOS box to fill in the checkboxes for you. All you have to do is confirm.
- Dark mode was slightly improved.
- Added option to switch to "advanced" mode.
Omegle (WiP 'advanced' mode).
- The work-in-progress 'advanced' mode is our full-fledged mode, giving you much more than geolocation and a dark theme.
- At the moment, by enabling this mode, you will be able to see geolocation in a more convenient format, see how long you are in a conversation, open the stranger's approximate location on the world's map directly in the extension, open the list of torrents downloaded by a stranger, take screenshots, enable picture-in-picture mode, open the changelog, and even block unnecessary locations or search for those that you need.
- Currently, it's not as functional as on other video chats, but the most important thing is done: the extension core is adapted to support different video chat platforms. This means that very soon, almost all of our functionality will be available on Omegle, and in the future, all changes/improvements will work on all fully supported platforms simultaneously.
- Other extension modules will be adapted in the coming weeks, giving you access to hotkeys, gender recognition, stats, blacklist, streamer mode, and much more.
- In addition, there are plans to develop platform-specific features on both COMC and Omegle platforms, stay tuned.
COMC (Chatruletka, Ome.tv, Minichat, Chatrulez).
- Fixed work on cafeclub.ua site (extension thought it was vertical like ome.chat).
- Updated the dark theme to match the latest changes at all 49 sites.
- Chatrulez is now using Minichat's dark theme.
- Fixed a bug that could cause the API check result to overwrite the interlocutor's geolocation data if the result came later than the geolocation data. This happened if a person with a good internet connection started the API check (by clicking on stop), immediately started the search (by clicking on start), and due to heavy load on the extension server, the API check result could come later than the geolocation data in very rare cases.
Coomeet Free.
- Improved the UI of the control panel: now, it is more intuitive and takes up less space.
- Removed the display of the duplicated loader (it indicated that the bot was hidden).
- Added the ability to show robot emoji while the video from the bot's camera is hidden.
Control Panel.
- Now, the full version of the extension (v1.9.0) is displayed in the control panel header by default.
- You can revert in the control panel settings as it was (v1.9) or turn off the version display altogether.
Geolocation.
- Added features to auto-skip predefined countries/regions/cities.
- The features to search for specific locations have been slightly reworked.
- Now the searches won't conflict. For example: if the desired city was found, but the region was not in the list, skip will not happen.
- All features related to targeted search have been grouped together for convenience. This group is disabled by default. If you previously enabled 'target city' or 'target region', you will need to enable the group first.
- Changed the description of these features.
- Added ability to search by country code (similar to 'target city' and 'target region').
Hotkeys.
- Fixed a bug due to which hotkeys were not disabled when the user turned off this feature (hotkeys continued to work until the next page reload).
- Standard key behavior is now prevented when local hotkeys are enabled (no more scrolling down and up when the down and up arrow hotkeys are activated).
Streamer Mode.
- Fixed a bug that caused the formatting string for vpn to be used when outputting mobile geolocation data in the OBS text source (and vise versa).
- These lines were mistakenly mixed up, if you edited them, you need to do it again.
