[noideaman]

Should hopefully be fixed with v0.2.1 but let me know if there are still issues with it closing properly.

[noideaman]

i wonder if it is just a linux issue, dont have my windows vm anymore

happens with the source tarball from releases and git pull

it did not happen till oscquery, and tupper's version has the same issue as well

i wonder if it is a combo of tk and oscquery, because i dont have the issue with oscleash, but that is ran fully in console

i go through github with search term like vrchat + osc to find new things, even more so with the osc scale support out now

[SalbugVR]

Yeah, unfortunately I don't have a Linux install currently to properly test this, but I'll see what I can do.

[noideaman]

yeah, if you spin one up I went ahead and ploped my pkgbuild into my testing repo
https://github.com/noideaman/ArchOSCApps/tree/main/VRChat-Avatar-Scaler

cachyos will have the build tools there for PKGBUILDS

use a helper to get tinyoscquery (<paru/yay> -S python-tinyosc query)
then you can use my PKGBUILD to install (makepkg -si in the dir)
everything should be installed to test changes

once it exits cleanly. i will work on github actions to build a single binary (app image or something) for others, maybe even a windows exe or installer

[SalbugVR]

Hopefully fixed in v0.2.2 🤞

[noideaman]

Yes it fully exits now, but i don't know if this is intended behavior. it fully exits on close of window and quit from systray icon

Like i am fine with that, i am used to X being close, i got used to X being minimize to systray by bad app designs in the past and now (most chat apps like skype/discord/etc)

[SalbugVR]

Oh yeah, I don't quite know if behaviour with Linux systray is different from Windows, so I just went with the solution of closing completely with X, but if the behaviour is fine with you then I'll consider this fixed.

[noideaman]

never mind, this is a strange one

I launch once, exit. it hanges

but i can launch again, it starts a new pid, and launches faster

[noideaman@reepc VRChat-Avatar-Scaler]$ ps aux | grep vrchat_avatar_scaler.pyw

i then quit, the new process closes out properly, the first one is still there

it wont die without a sigkill command

[noideaman]

the query service keeps running, i wonder if it is not calling an exit to oscquery

it is, i disabled oscquery in the settings, and it exits cleanly, so a call to kill that first is needed somewhere

[noideaman]

there is a pull request, but this project has not been maintained
i just tested it with mine and it exits properly

i just used their main branch if you want to change/update your install script
