osu!flow 0.3.0: search like osu!, and snappier.

What's new

  • The osu! website's and osu!lazer's search conditions work in the search box: stars>5, ar<=9.5, cs, od, hp, bpm=180..200, length<3m (also 90, 1.5h or 3:30), keys=4 for mania, and mapper=name, artist=name or title=name (quote names with spaces). >, >=, < and <= compare, = matches about that value, and a..b is a range. Several conditions must all hold on the same difficulty, as in the game.
  • Conditions show as chips under the box: click one to remove it. Anything unreadable gets a short note instead of silently searching for it. The Filters panel has examples to click.
  • Editing a condition is instant. Only the other words go to the mirror, so changing stars>5 to stars>6 narrows the results at once without a new search.
  • Snappier results. Cards used to take up to about 650 ms to finish appearing; now it is about half that, the search card opens faster, and the pause before a typed search is sent is shorter. Going back to a search you just made (backspacing, or switching category and back) shows it immediately.
  • A cleaner icon: one gradient ring and dot on a flat tile, readable down to 16 px in the tray.

Good to know

  • The beatmap mirrors can't filter by any of this themselves, so conditions trim the results already fetched. For a rare one osu!flow fetches a few more pages and then offers Keep searching.
  • Downloads were already close to the network's limit (a 12 MB set takes about a second from the preferred mirror, which doesn't support splitting a file across connections), so there is no new download engine. The one change: the hand-off notices sooner when a virus scanner lets go of a freshly downloaded file.

Install

Download osu.flow_0.3.0_x64-setup.exe below and run it. It installs for your user only (no administrator rights) and adds a Start menu entry.

The installer isn't code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen may say it protects your PC: choose More info, then Run anyway.

SHA-256 of the installer: 90554ed6273619720169180772247b24159842640fa7b6b8fa9181d185f35db4
