1. What ARMGDDN Browser Is
ARMGDDN Browser is a web app that lets you browse multiple content remotes (PC, PCVR, extras, etc.), view game folders with cover art and metadata, and download files. It is designed to be fast, secure, and read-only for normal users.
2. Getting Access & Logging In
2.1 Requirements
- A modern browser.
- A Telegram account.
- Optional but recommended: ARMGDDN Downloader app for easier downloads (see Section 11 in this panel).
2.2 Telegram Authentication
On the login screen, use the Telegram login widget to authenticate. After Telegram confirms you, your avatar and name appear in the top-right and the remotes landing page unlocks.
3. Landing Page: Remotes Grid
3.1 Remote Cards
Each card represents a remote server or content source (PC, PCVR, 3D Printer Models, etc.). Click a card to open that remote and see its folders.
3.2 Quota Status
If a remote is "AT QUOTA", the card is dimmed and shows an overlay. You cannot click remotes that are at quota; try another remote or return later.
4. Main Browser Layout
The main layout includes a header, a toolbar with breadcrumb, remote filter, search bar and user info, and a content area that shows either the remotes grid or a files view for a specific remote/folder. Temporary status messages indicate loading, success, or errors.
5. Browsing Remotes & Folders
5.1 Opening a Remote
From the landing grid, click a remote (for example PC1 or PCVR2). The browser loads the root folder of that remote. In some cases, if a remote only has one folder, the app auto-enters it to show games directly.
5.2 Folder View
Inside a remote you see folders (often game titles) and files. Game folders may show cover art, size, and last modified time.
5.3 Cross-Server Stub Folders
If a game folder is smaller than 1 KB, it is treated as a stub. Instead of normal cover art you will see a message such as "You must download from PCVR server" or "You must download from PC server". Switch to the indicated remote to get the actual game.
6. Searching and Filtering
Use the remote filter dropdown to choose "All remotes" or a specific remote. The folder search bar lets you search within the current view. Right after login, search results may take a few moments while indexing warms up.
7. Working with Files & Games
Each row typically shows a cover area (art, placeholder, or stub message), the name, size, modified date, and action buttons. The system tries to show accurate game art, especially for short, single-word titles.
8. Downloading
8.1 ARMGDDN Downloader App (Recommended)
- Download App â Get the ARMGDDN Downloader app from the GitHub releases page (linked on the landing page).
- One-Click Downloads â Click "Download with App" on any game/folder and the app opens automatically.
- Features â Pause/resume support, auto-retry, uses rclone directly on your machine, no server bandwidth usage.
8.2 Browser Downloads
- Download Files â downloads files directly to your browser (limited to 10 GB).
- Batch Processing â Enable "Batch processing" in eligible folder views to select multiple items and download them together.
9. Tips & Troubleshooting
- If nothing loads after login, confirm Telegram authentication and refresh the page.
- If a remote is AT QUOTA, pick another remote or try again later.
- If you see a cross-server stub message in a game folder, switch to the indicated remote (PC or PCVR) to download the real content.
- If search is slow immediately after login, wait a bit while the index and art cache warm up.
- For large downloads (over 10 GB), use the ARMGDDN Downloader app instead of browser downloads.
10. FAQ
- Do I need to pay? No. The browser is free; "premium" refers to the experience, not a fee.
- Why Telegram? Telegram is used to verify identity and roles. The login widget itself is provided by Telegram.
- Can I break anything by clicking around? Normal users are read-only: you browse and download, but do not modify source data.
11. Using the ARMGDDN Downloader App
The ARMGDDN Downloader app is the recommended way to download games and large files.
- Download the app for your platform (Windows or Linux) from GitHub Releases.
- Install and run the app. It will automatically fetch the encrypted rclone configuration on first run.
- In ARMGDDN Browser, navigate to any game/folder and click Download with App.
- The app opens automatically via deep link and starts downloading immediately.
- All downloads support pause/resume and auto-retry (3 attempts) for reliability.
