WaniKani Automatic Wallpaper for Windows 10

Same problem. Open PowerShell in C:\Users\Andi\Downloads\WaniKaniAutoWallpaper-master, it tells me “cannot access”.

Hi!
Thanks for creating this, it’s great! But I do have a problem. I cannot change the colors. I opened the help and tried following what was written in it but I couldn’t manage to change the colors of anything. I tried changing the margins and it worked fine. But when I try changing the color of anything (background or kanji), the wallpaper doesn’t even update.
Could anyone help me with this?

Sorry about that, now that I look at it, the help command doesn’t really tell you how to define colors.

To do it, you need to use HTML notation. E.g. this would write apprentice items in white:

java -jar .\WaniKaniAutoWallpaper.jar -k 9b8...dc7 --color-apprentice "#FFFFFF"

Just enter “html color picker” in Google and you’ll have everything you need :wink:

Works like a charm! Thank you very much.
I didn’t expect you to still provide support for this script, your help is greatly appreciated.

@Towe I downloaded some fonts but it doesn’t seem to find them when I do overview or when I specify them. Specifically nagamaya_kai is shown in windows but it says it doesn’t exist. The other fonts I have such as ArmedBanana or “HakusyuKaisyoExtraBold_kk” seem like they work but then it generates a wallpaper using the default font.

Hopefully it’s not a big issue, and if it is I’ll just use the default font

Just to clarify:

  1. When you open a document editor like LibreOffice or Word, does it show “nagayama_kai” on the list of fonts?
  2. When you use my app and set font “ArmedBanana”, does it generate it correctly or use the default font?
  1. Yeah just checked

  2. It generates the default, the fonts that seem to come with windows work fine, overview generates 56 images but none of the extra fonts I have installed.

If I go to fonts and sort language they show up under “all languages” but not “Japanese” which might be the issue if that’s the way your program searches for them. I’ll try to look into it

This is very strange, I honestly don’t know what might be the reason for this. Do you have Japanese keyboard installed on your computer? If you don’t, maybe that’s the problem.

Yeah I have it installed, not sure what it could be either.

FYI, this no longer works as the original wanikani API has been deprecated

Looks like it’s been updated to work with the new API token now.
Thanks and nice job!

I keep getting the following error "-k": "api-key-here" is not a valid API key I am using windows 10, Java 1.8 and updated the .lasted version from your github. I also generated a completely new api key specifically for this and it seems this is not working. Do you have any suggestions for fixes or is this tool no longer suported?

Looking at the API Key Validator, it looks like it doesn’t accept any dashes. I removed the dashes from my key as a test, and ended up getting a 404. It appears to still be hitting the old v1 API which I believe has been discontinued.

Ok thank you for taking a look. :grin:
