See the next post also: Teases Converted to GuideMe
Features
- Download classic, flash and EOS teases
- Download by url or tease ID number, or even enter a list of tease ID's for batch download
- For classic teases you can paste the url of any page and the downloader figures it out
- You can enter a comma separated list of tease url's or tease ID's (much easier) to batch download several teases.
- Automatic assignment of hotkeys for buttons (customizable - see hotkeys.txt)
- Automatically replace common BPM audio files with GuideMe metronome (doesn't work in all cases)
- For Classic Teases images are named to match the pages, so page 1 uses image 1, etc.
- A download with many media files can be interrupted and resumed later.
- Easily organize teases in subfolders
- Option to add "by <author name>" to the tease and folder name (off by default)
The downloader can be downloaded here. Mega download (current version is 0.97, Feb 6/2024)
Just unzip the file to a suitable directory and run MiloDownloader.exe
The first time you run it the program will create a Cache folder, and a local config file with all options set to defaults.
The downloader is written in python, using PySimpleGUI for the GUI.
Source code is available here. Mega download (Updated Feb 6/2024)
Samples: See the next post for samples of teases downloaded using the downloader
Usage Notes
Running the downloader from the source code
The false positive virus/trojan warnings should be resolved as of version 0.96. If they are not, or if you prefer to run it directly from the source code see the instructions in the spoiler below.

Please note that while many teases will download and work without issues, most more advanced EOS teases will require some editing or adjustments.

What's this Cache folder
By default the downloader saves local copies of the tease html and script files in the Cache subfolder.
This will speed up future downloads of this tease, and the files can also be used to customize the tease.
