Usage

The main window is divided into three panels, each with a search bar and a list:

Panel	Description
Local Trainers (left)	Lists .exe files imported into the trainers/ folder. Right-click to Open / Pin to Top / Unpin / Delete. Pinned items remain at the top after restart.
Download (middle)	Lists downloadable trainers from the FLiNG Trainer catalog. Right-click to open the download link in your browser or view the trainer's help page.
Game Name Lookup (right)	Lists game name pairs (Chinese + English). Type a name and press Enter to search; right-click to copy either the Chinese or English name to clipboard.

Importing Trainers:

• Go to File > Import Executable or File > Import Compressed File to add trainers
• Set a download directory via File > Set Download Directory; after triggering a download via the middle panel, the app monitors this directory and auto-imports matching .exe/.zip/.rar files

Translation:

• Use Tools > Translate Filenames to batch rename all .exe files in trainers/ folder to their Chinese game names

Steam:

• Click Tools > Start Steam to launch Steam with one click

Data Updates:

• The app auto-updates trainers_list.csv, game_names_merged.csv, and abbreviation.csv on startup if more than 2 days have passed since the last update
• Manually update via File > Update Trainers List
• If updates fail due to network issues, configure proxy/mirror URLs in File > Modify GitHub File Acceleration

Theme & Language:

• Switch themes (Dark/Light) or toggle UI language (Chinese/English) under the Settings menu — the app restarts automatically to apply changes

Installation

You can get the software in two ways:

1. Download the installer from Releases:

   • Go to the Releases page and download the setup program.

2. Clone the repository and run from source:

   git clone https://github.com/Karasukaigan/game-trainer-manager.git
   cd game-trainer-manager
   python -m venv venv
   venv\Scripts\activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   python .\main.py

Update Methods

Three data files need periodic updates:

• trainers_list.csv — trainer catalog from FLiNG Trainer
• game_names_merged.csv — Chinese-to-English game name mapping
• abbreviation.csv — game abbreviations and aliases

These files are located in app/resources/. Two update modes:

1. Automatic Update — config.ini records the last update timestamp. If more than 2 days have passed, the app fetches the latest files on startup.

2. Manual Update — Click File > Update Trainers List from the menu bar.

3. GitHub Mirror — If direct downloads fail due to network conditions, click File > Modify GitHub File Acceleration to edit proxies.txt. Each line is a mirror base URL; the app tries each in order with a 6-second timeout per node, falling back to the GitHub raw URL if none respond.

Debug Mode

Toggle Settings > Debug Mode from the menu bar, or edit config.ini directly:

debugmode = true

The debug panel shows detailed operation logs at the bottom of the window.

About the Official Version

The official version of Game Trainer Manager has removed the built-in crawler. When downloading trainers, the app opens the download link in your default browser rather than making direct HTTP requests. Trainer searches rely entirely on local CSV data, placing no extra load on FLiNG Trainer's servers.
