Since the site DNS renewal, the app hasn't been able to connect to the site and now I can't get my BTC out of it.  Help?

Yes - but not sure when the next version will be ready. Thanks for your interest.

(Edit: I'm also noticing the flat green background peeking out on the Right and Bottom edges of the Desktop edition screenshots folks have posted. That shouldn't be there. Can others confirm this?

It's fine for me.  Maybe you need to ask evoorhees what desktop environment and/or window manager he's using.

Here's how it looks in XFCE 4.10 on Ubuntu 12.10:

Thank you for the screenshot. I'm also developing in Ubuntu (Gnome/Metacity), and this is exactly how it should look. Sometimes there are Java Look & Feel platform differences to account for... but I digress into technicalities.

Screenshots from other platforms/versions are most helpful! Anyone running this on Mac yet?

You might consider looking at something like http://browsershots.org/http://www.satoshidice.com/

Thank you, I have used this service for Web sites. SatoshiRoller is a desktop/Android application, not a Web site. I have not found a service that will execute/render applications on different platforms, so I generally ask around for community input. I've also looked into running multiple platforms via virtual machines within Ubuntu (advice welcome).

It might be a good idea to use something like Blockchain.info's APIs to work around the pending limitation of bitcoinjs.

Thank you for this suggestion. This idea has come up. I am curious what the community feels about using an online wallet service rather than a local wallet. (Technically, I could integrate both.)

Ran into a bug, it says I have 2.0 pending but on blockchain.info it says I have 2.3 btc confirmed. Are these coins lost or..?

Edit: Now only 1.6 coins are stuck, is there a way to recover the coins from the wallet file that satoshi roller creates?

Edit2: Problem fixed after updating the client.

Just tried running it to see how it works. Getting a "Sorry, unable to retrieve games"

This means that satoshidice.com is not responding. This is usually temporary, so give it a try again later. (satoshidice.com seems to be loading slowly, so maybe they have some high traffic right now.)

Thanks for reporting your experience - it helps us plan future improvements!

I replied to your other topic: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1354512

It's an issue in the underlying library (bitcoinj). I have working code to fix such a wallet (to be included in a future version of SatoshiRoller). See my other reply; if you need help restoring your wallet, PM me.

dooglus, thank you for your input. I can confirm the Withdraw bug (on desktop). Also, I agree about the dialog box suggestions. Also, the Internet drop scenario is a good test case, which I can investigate more later. For now, if your connection drops, you may need to restart the client.

BitCoiner2012, What is happening is that your bet is small enough that even though SD reports a Win, you've lost overall value due to the tx fees. I will bring this up with evoorhees to determine how to best address this confusing behavior.

BitCoiner2012's observation about the Pending behavior is correct - the underlying library (bitcoinj) does not (yet) allow spending unconfirmed transactions. I agree that this behavior can be improved, and have suggested an implementation to the bitcoinj folks. They say a similar fix is in the works.

(Edit: I'm also noticing the flat green background peeking out on the Right and Bottom edges of the Desktop edition screenshots folks have posted. That shouldn't be there. Can others confirm this? It must be platform-dependent, because I have not seen it in my testing. This first version is designed for a fixed resolution, and the window should shrink-wrap itself to the pretty textured background with no edges peeking out.)


I suspected as much, I wish it was clearly listed exact btc amount like we have in other transactions (if I do on blockchain, or in regular wallet, I can see exactly what was sent and received, here I get a balance, etc).

As far as the flat green background, it is escaping the gui on the right and bottom for me Windows 7 64 bit desktop.

Couple of issues with the withdraw box:

1) green on green isn't a very readable choice, especially when the text is small and can't be zoomed or selected

2) after successfully withdrawing, the withdraw dialog stays open; it seems to me that most people won't want to make more than one withdrawal at a time, so the box should close once you've used it

Strength in numbers
These are not yet available on the SatoshiDice.com website, because I wanted the community here to get to play around with them first.

Is it fair to say this app won't appear on Google Play?

We will be trying to get it in Google Play.

Notice this:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zynga.livepoker&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS56eW5nYS5saXZlcG9rZXIiXQ..

So, the store does allow gambling apps, so long as it's not "real money."

Thus the question is... is Bitcoin real money or not? Smiley

Heads you win tails they lose imo!

"In Google Play!" OR "Sorry that's too real!"

Here are some things I don't understand:

http://i49.tinypic.com/2z6ih4w.png

In the bottom for example, it says "last WIN .079 BTC" - but my overall stats don't show that, nor does my balance reflect that. That's more than I bet, yet it seems like I lost money. I'm confused about the interface a little regarding pay/display/etc, I'd like a "transaction log", yet I have been tinkering off and on. The "net result" shows the exact opposite (that I lost more than I bet).??
