Kea is an appication for downloading comics from https://www.webtoons.com for personal, offline use.
Download Advanced Kea v.1.3.5
or look at all releases here.
After the .zip folder downloaded unzip it and run Kea.exe.
(all files in the Kea folder need to stay in the same directory)
To edit Kea, download everything and open Kea.sln in Visual Studio.
- enter all links of the comics you want to download into the uppermost text field
(Links must be seperated by a line break)
Note: please don't use links of specific chapters
This would work: https://www.webtoons.com/en/action/hero-killer/list?title_no=2745
But this wouldn't: https://www.webtoons.com/en/action/hero-killer/episode-1/viewer?title_no=2745&episode_no=1
Note2: To download Fan translations, add &language=LANGUAGE_CODE to the url Replace LANGUAGE_CODE with the language code of the desired translation For example: The url for dice is: https://www.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/dice/list?title_no=64
To download the spanish fan translation, the url becomes: https://www.webtoons.com/en/fantasy/dice/list?title_no=64&language=SPA
When multiple translations are found, the translation with highest likes is downloaded. If you are interested in downloading the translation of a specific team, add &teamVersion=TEAMVERSION to the url, replace TEAMVERSION with the desired team.

- press the add all to queue button to, uh... add them to the queue
(If a comic does not get added, the link was invalid) - Use remove selected and remove all to delete comics you dont want to download
- The default start chapter will always be 1 and the default end chapter 'end'
- These can be changed to any number greater than zero
(the start chapter needs to be smaller than the end chapter)
- Select a save folder by pressing the folder button
- Check each catoon for the application to save all chapters of a cartoon under a common folder (each chapter works likewise)
- PDF file: every image of a given chapter is saved as a page in a PDF document. This results in one PDF file per chapter.
- CBZ file: chapters are saved as a Comic book archive file. Learn more here.
- multiple images: every image is saved seperately. The number of images per chapter can vary.
- one image: every image of a given chapter is stitched together verically to create one very tall image per chapter.
Warning: if a chapter is so long that the resulting merged image exceeds 30,000 pixels in height it will be down scaled (in some cases even until the text isn't readable anymore). In those cases the PDF option may be better.
- Now you can click the start button and wait (all controls should be deactivated until the download is done)
