[Software] Brickficiency - Find the cheapest BL stores to buy parts

Recommended Posts

Here's a suggestion particularly for one who has multiple countries allowed, how about including the store's country in the result page? Either in form of letters like USA or with country flag? That way user could scan through a few combinations to see if they can find a combination of countries that suited better (cheaper shipping for example) or something?

Hi folks,

I solved the problem. There were too many wanted lists on my user account... Deleted some of them and now it works...

I just downloaded the latest version (v0.95) off the Brickficiency site and I can't get past the login for importing a list from Bricklink.

I am using the proper login and password, but the information window just says "logging in...". Waiting for 5 minutes or more and nothing changes.

Clicking the Next button and "Logging In..." disappears from the information window. Clicking again on the Next button does nothing and the Login window stays until I close it.

Tried it both while logged in to BrickLink and while logged out.

I'm on a Win 7 64-bit machine.

Any ideas?

Having the same issue, can't get the program to do anything. It just hangs whenever I try to import something.

Can you download the test version here: https://docs.google.com/uc?export=download&id=0B6HH_wCQ4odGLTFKT0NrcnlTWTA

I think it should pop up an error instead of just hanging now. if you can send me a screenshot of that it may help.

Also, if anyone has downloaded 0.95 before this very moment, you should do a database update (under the tools menu). The database was horribly out of date, but I just updated it this morning.

Hi again,

The login on the test file worked but I got this:

Can you try updating the database under the tools menu?

When I do that, I get a popup that says that the database is xxxxxxx days old and then I click update. The popup disappears and there is no indication that anything is happening.

How long should it take on a medium fast cable network to download the database?

After 5 minutes, nothing. My options to import a wanted list or a LDD file are grayed out as is the option to reload the database.

Are you at work? it doesn't seem to do anything for me on my work computer. I believe it has something to do with redirected profile folders in windows, but I have not had time to look into it.

No, I'm on my home computer with all programs operating from a C: drive.

I'm going to put a note up on the site in a while, but 0.95 is broken. There is a requirement that is not bundled with the exe. I'll have to include the required file, but it's going to take a while to get that done. For now, please use verion 0.94.

Hello doupe, thank you for your persisting efforts to make this program work well.

I'm having a problem with Brickeficiency though, and I'd like to ask for any help.

When I import my bricklink wanted list, many items import as coulour "not applicable". The wanted list has all correct and available parts/colours.

Has anyone encountered this problem before?

This issue is finally fixed in the next release. I finally tracked down this issue as happening to any item with brackets in the name. :)

Not sure when the next release will be finished. I'm still working on some broken dependancies.

Cool, I'll make a donation when the program works and saves me time/money :classic:

When I double click the coulour "not applicable" part, and make it the coulour I want, the picture on the part list changes to a different part.

Will this affect the wanted lists?

Yup, this is happening to me with 0.95. Same situation, home PC with Windows 7 Pro. Going to go look for 0.94 now! Thanks for the support! Will definitely pay when this is ironed out. I for the life of me can't figure out why there isn't a tool like this in bricklink itself! Maybe because it would probably favor certain sellers all the time!

Hi again mdoupe,

I'm getting an error scrolling report in the grey box during processing.

It stops calculating and says

"Error downloading price guide: got price guide but had nothing on it"

or something along those lines :grin:

Ring any bells?

Good on your program, I hope it can work the intended magic.

I'll negotiate a charitable donation, shareware-style :classic:

My webhost likes blocking people indiscriminately. :P if you send me your IP, I'll submit a ticket.
