Support NeoGAF

[Deft Beck]

I looked around and while this was mentioned in some larger threads, I figured this deserved its own thread.

It's a Javascript tool made by the Redditor RePod37 that you use on the Playstation web store to filter and search through your downloadable content.

All you have to do is put

javascript:$.getScript("//repod.github.io/psdle/psdle.js");void(0);

in your address bar while you are on the Playstation web store and you can generate a list of your downloadable content. It uses all the same queries as the regular storefront, and it's really convenient.

This is great. I think I might use it. Bookmarked.

 

[GifGafIsTheBestGaf]

oh wow, thanks op. bookmarked

 

[KojiKnight]

Couldn't get this to work for awhile with firefox... eventually it popped up. Very neat. Will make it a lot easier in the future to grab my PS4 PS+ titles when I eventually get one.

 

[Jimmyfenix]

Just found out i bought rayman at some point using this tool

 

[Fisty]

Looks neat, thanks for the heads up I might use this. Too bad Sony cant do this themselves... that 5 day PS+ extension was more hassle than it was worth for me, completely screwed my download list again.

 

[xzeldax3]

Thanks for the heads up, it will be very useful to me.

 

[alr1ght]

Wow. This is great. Firefox users you may have to manually type in

javascript:

as firefox automatically parses it.

It's long overdue for an official fix.

 

[metsallica]

This is mind blowing. Holy crap.

 

[TheAznOne]

Neat thing. Tested it out and it works. I like it.

 

[YianGaruga]

If only someone working at Sony actually cared about the user experience this wouldn't be necessary. Still, cool to have.

 

[the mark]

Nice!

 

[Agraavan]

This is freaking usefull if it works as intended and is something that Sony should have implemented a long time ago.

I'll bookmark this thread and test it as soon as I get home. Thanks.

 

[realcZk]

Wow, this is a great way to manage downloads and view a list of games and software I already own. Props to this guy, bookmarked.

Some browsers block the execution of javascript from the URL bar, so you'll have to hit F12 and paste this into the console instead:

$.getScript("//repod.github.io/psdle/psdle.js");void(0);

Or alternatively, bookmark it and select the bookmark when on the page.

 

[Zombie James]

All of my PS+ games in one easy to sort list. Finally.

 

[DrKelpo]

/edit
never mind

 

[Quick Mustard]

doesn't work for me..eu/chrome =/

Yea, I cant get it to work either.

 

[Freedom = $1.05]

"The best experience i've ever had was scrolling through the Vita's download list to download more than one thing at a time" said absolutely no one ever in the history of humanity.

 

[Delusibeta]

Or alternatively, get Greasemonkey/Tapermonkey and install a local version. You'll have a shiny PSDLE logo in the lower left of the screen when browsing the webstore.

I've actually been using the script for a while, and it's come a long way. It used to just scrape the download list, now it's a total replacement for the download queue as well. It's pretty neat.

 

[Quadraphonic]

Wow.... time to give this a shot.

 

[rezn0r]

really awesome, thanks for the link

 

[DrKelpo]

as much as i love sony, it's simply mindblowing, that such a company has that much trouble with some comfort features in it's onlineshop.

awesome tool.

 

[Quadraphonic]

I just realized this also lists everything I own that works on the PSTV...not a bad bonus.

 

[vg260]

Maybe a dumb question, but how secure is something like this? Is this passing information to another site?

 

[YianGaruga]

"The best experience i've ever had was scrolling through the Vita's download list to download more than one thing at a time" said absolutely no one ever in the history of humanity.

Those are the same people who said things like
"The best part is seeing all the PS3 games I can't ever download, because a Vita is not a PS3!"

and

"Wow, I'm really looking forward to finding out which PSP or PSOne title randomly has Vita compatibility removed this week!"

 

[mattp]

first reaction: hey this is really well made and useful
second reaction: god dammit, sony

 

[zephervack]

I seem to be doing correctly as I get the weird icon to activate the top panel, but the top panel is completely empty of any data, maybe we are slamming it too hard?

 

[SerTapTap]

This is fantastic. Absolutely absurd Sony hasn't come up with a proper solution in years.

I seem to be doing correctly as I get the weird icon to activate the top panel, but the top panel is completely empty of any data, maybe we are slamming it too hard?

I got it to work after refreshing and pressing the bookmarklet button only after the main page was fully loaded

 

[cwistofu]

I'm definitely checking this out when i get home

 

[DrKelpo]

you have to press the start button to gather all the infos.

Pretty much my reactions.
I mean, at this point they're actively choosing to have a terrible webstore.

 

[alr1ght]

Damn, you can even toggle PS+ games on/off. Great stuff.

 

[DJ Lushious]

Yea, I cant get it to work either.

Chrome user here, as well. I have no idea what I need to do. Do I just past the JavaScript code into the URL bar? The instructions, to me, don't seem very clear.

 

[SerTapTap]

Hm, it doesn't seem quite sure what to do with season passes and full game unlock licenses. They're not even "unknown" they just can't be removed from the list. Otherwise pretty amazing. Going to use it tonight to audit my PS1/PSP/Vita collection on my PS3/content manager to make sure I have it all.

 

[joeblow]

Thanks OP.

 

[bombshell]

Chrome user here, as well. I have no idea what I need to do. Do I just past the JavaScript code into the URL bar? The instructions, to me, don't seem very clear.

That's one way to do it, but be aware that the "javascript:" part will probably be cropped by Chrome when you paste it in the address bar, so you have to manually enter it before hitting enter.

Alternatively hit F12 to bring up the developer tools and paste the string into the console tab and hit enter then F12 to back out of developer tools again.

 

[BTHR Zero X]

ver interesting script. I like it.

 

[pje122]

.

 

[GordonShumway]

Awesome, will try when I have a chance tonight.

 

[alr1ght]

Maybe a dumb question, but how secure is something like this? Is this passing information to another site?

It's open source
http://repod.github.io/psdle/

Is this safe or a ploy to phish account details?
Yes it is safe, no it is not for phishing account details.
I put it on GitHub for a reason, feel free to view the horribly effective code yourself and decide.
If/when I get pull requests I'll let them sit and look through them while allowing the "community" to as well.

If authentication details were left around openly on the download list page I would take my concerns elsewhere.

 

[Benedict]

Great. tried it for the first time and I am amazed.

Too bad that some demos etc is counted as games.

 

[LAM09]

Seems like a great tool. I'll have to try it later on. Thanks, OP.

 

[AndyD]

Pretty incredible.

 

[Son of Flounder]

Thanks OP! I have over 1000 items in my download list and this makes it much more manageable. Works great with Firefox & Greasemonkey (UK store)

 

[Veritigo_X]

Still raises the question why Sony thinks the current solution is acceptable. Like has anyone at that company ever tried to use the download list before? Have they even acknowledged that it needs work or at the very least an option to sort by platform? Downloading games on the PS4 is alright since it has the Library tab but the Vita is a whole other story.

 

[bsod]

Got it to load on Chrome via Java console, but games won't download.

 

[Dash Kappei]

Wow

 

[Justified]

Please make a javascript tool to change PSN names lol

 

[zephervack]

Thanks for the top guys, pressing "START" helped.

I actually dont own as much as I thought but good to see some titles I forgot I had bought.

 

[Veritigo_X]

Please make a javascript tool to change PSN names lol

Okay. Can't guarantee it will show up for other people or on any of your gaming systems but I can make one work for the web store.
