Mega.nz issues (not logged in, http error 402, etc)

[BakaBambi]

Now I can't load the image like before. It shows error like image, can you help me?

For the time being, you have to create a mega_credentials.json file to get it working. Use the mega_credentials_example.json provided with patreondownloader as a template and place the newly created json file in the same location.

It works, thanks.

Do we know when it will be fixed ?

I'm also having trouble downloading today. No error. But it stops at the same post every time and only grabs post descriptions and embeds. No images, videos, audio, etc. I tried starting with a fresh copy of PatreonDownloader, as well as adding a mega_credentials.json file with my login information as described above, but I'm experiencing the same result.

Here's my command for reference:

./PatreonDownloader.App.exe --url https://www.patreon.com/c/WataofBorisheavyrocks/posts --descriptions --embeds --json --campaign-images --log-save --use-sub-directories

Tôi cũng gặp sự cố khi tải xuống hôm nay. Không có lỗi. Nhưng nó dừng lại ở cùng một bài đăng mỗi lần và chỉ lấy mô tả bài đăng và nhúng. Không có hình ảnh, video, âm thanh, v.v. Tôi đã thử bắt đầu bằng một bản sao mới của PatreonDownloader, cũng như thêm mega_credentials.jsontệp có thông tin đăng nhập của tôi như mô tả ở trên, nhưng tôi vẫn gặp phải kết quả tương tự.

Đây là lệnh của tôi để bạn tham khảo:

./PatreonDownloader.App.exe --url https://www.patreon.com/c/WataofBorisheavyrocks/posts --descriptions --embeds --json --campaign-images --log-save --use-sub-directories

I tried it and it seems ok. The alternate account in the mega_credentials.json file is the mega.nz account, not the patreon account.

I totally missed that OPs issue was related to the Mega plugin. My mistake.

But you're saying you were able to pull images/etc with that command? Not sure what I'm doing wrong. It's the same command I've had saved in the past and the same PatreonDownloader version. Strange.

It works with your Patreon credentials in the json file, but it's not downloading everything like it used to. It seems like it goes up to a certain date and doesn't download images/content, although it will download the post descriptions.

It strangely solved my issues, before creating mega_credentials.json the app only seemed to scan the account but didn't download anything. Once i created the mega_credentials.json the app started downloading again, even though i'm sure the account i tested it on didn't have any mega link in them.

I am having the same issue.
And creating the json doesnt really fix it.
Since while it is able to login, it still doesnt download anything, and just crashes/ends after some few posts

@Hecatom Make sure that the mega plugin is actually signing in by adding the --log-level Debug command to see what's happening. When it doesn't work it says right at the beginning in red

FATAL !!!![MEGA]: Unable to initialize mega downloader, check email and password! No mega files will be downloaded in this session. !!!!

But I've noticed that even with the credentials file it stops working within a few hours. The solution I've found is to login into my mega account on a browser, go to settings, security, logout of all active sessions including the current browser session, and then log back into the same browser. Somehow that allows the mega plugin to login and run for an hour or so until it expires. The credentials don't last long and I seem to need to do this to get a new MegaApi token or something.

Mega broke something on their side a while ago, even official apps/websites are having issues.

I've been able to get mega downloading working semi-reliably by opening mega website in a browser (while logged in into the account set in mega_credentials.json) before launching PatreonDownloader.

If you do not care about downloading mega files you can just delete plugins/UniversalDownloaderPlatform.MegaDownloader.dll file for the time being.

How do I make a mega_credentials.json?

[conkerts]

I don't even see any mega files from that creator, why does it want to login for mega ?
