When game is installed/uninstalled multiple times then built-in additional tasks are not added when importing game (for example additional launch options for Steam games).

or provide option to do so from crash window

Currently we have hard-coded fields for Store, Wiki and Forums links. We should allow user to add any number of custom links.

Currently setup package is responsible for closing application while running update. We should close application gracefully first before running setup package in order to prevent possible "file in use" dialogs from setup.

• Show successful/unsuccessful login attempts to GOG/Origin in first time wizard and settings windows
• Offer re-login when library download fails by clicking on notification

This will remove lots of boilerplate code.

After uninstalling a game (tested on GOG game) uninstalled game is still present in Playnite. Attempt to launch the game results in error message.

"Three dots button" next to "VIEW" button, first item "Sory by name" instead of "Sort by name".

When game is updated in DB all game properties report to UI new state even when not changed. This negatively impacts performance when editing multiple games at once.

For example if DB is on D:\ drive which is not connected.

Hi,

Right now it is possible to collapse categories, but if the user changes a view the categories expand back. Specifically, the categories expand when:

• The filters are switched
• The application restarts
• A search is performed

I would find it more convenient if the application would be able to remember the state of collapse/expand and always return to it (unless the user makes a change).

It's not quite clear where to get Steam account id required for Steam library import. Add some information to import wizard including information that account has to be public for import to work properly.

In main menu there are items with three dots at the end "Add installed games...", "Settings...", "About Playnite..." with no spaces. In game details, "More" button menu items have spaces in between three dots, "Edit . . .", "Set category . . .".

Show changes and new features from last version when Playnite updates

Import dialog will offer button that will scan selected folder and offer list of found executables.

When installation is executed outside of Playnite, Playnite will not show that game is installed until restart (even when reloading library manually).

Hey there!

Great software, it was love at first sight. Love the UI, the auto labeling and import. Speaking of import though, it looks like Playnite only recognized games that were either on my C drive or (probably) that were listed in Windows' Add/Remove Programs. Most of my games are on a second E drive, and almost all non-GOG games are not listed in the Add/Remove Programs. For example: Rimworld (steam) is on my C, by not in Add/Remove so it didn't get imported into Playnite.

Is there something I'm missing? Or do installed games from Steam/Origin need to be added manually?

Add option to change how Steam and GOG cover are being generated. Current solution involves predefined style with provider logo to ensure that default cover aspect ration is maintained (which default images from store don't provide). This look might not be universally liked and it also might not fit selected app theme.

Hi,

Firstly, thanks a lot for this software, I was looking for something like this for years now :) .

For the feature itself:
It would be really useful if the import from steam took into consideration also categories which the user created there. I have a library of 500 categorised games on steam and it took me good 5 hours to recreate the same structure in Playnite, therefore I think other users might find this useful.

Cheers,

On details view, like publishers, release date etc.

http://wiki.thegamesdb.net/index.php/API_Introduction

Nice project here, got a bit farther than mine ever did. Would like to know if there's any future plans for cross-platform support.

CPU, RAM, OS Version etc.

All cache data are currently stored in memory, which is bad for several reasons:

• increased memory usage
• cache won't survive service restart

If you enable sync of complete library and installed game is not in your account (in case of free weekends, betas etc.), then it will not show up in Playnite at all.

Steam manifest data is gathered inefficiently. There's recursive search for acf files while only top most folder needs to be searched.

MessageBox buttons are localized for system language despite english title and message.

This will improve performance a lot for big libraries. Virtualization is enabled by default in .Net 4.5 (which Playnite uses), but there are things that can break it http://stackoverflow.com/a/34438244/1107424

Also virtualization is by default disabled for grouping, so we should enable it in that case.

Will re-download game metadata and images from provider site (Steam, GOG etc.) and reset them to default value

First startup after installation doesn't download cloud saves, starting via Origin downloads saves properly.

Removed games remain selected which can result in crash (sometimes). How to recreate:

1. Main menu, "Add game...", Ok
2. "New Game" is selected
3. Remove "New game" from list.
4. "New game" is still in main window.
5. Click on "More" button, select "Hide".

Title is self-explanatory. Would be pretty cool to have an option to automatically close Playnite after launching a game.

I installed Playnite and tried to import all my games. When import started, several problems occured.

1. GOG did not download anything - an error emerged (which I could not copy, so I rewrote it here):

Failed to download GOG library updates: Error converting value {null} to type 'System.Int32'. Path 'products[42].updates', line 1, position 29227.

2. Steam did download some games, but not all of them. I have more than 600 and number in Playnite says 57. I didn't notice any error message. For info: I have only 14 games installed.
   

Origin seems to be ok.

Custom actions usually contain just different arguments for main executable, so make it easier to user.

Full Uplay account sync is too complicated, but we could at least add support to automatically import installed games.

Remove unnecessary animations and improve color pallet

Add integrated "Favorites" category as separate selection as well as filter option.

Full battle.net account sync is too complicated, but we could at least add support to automatically import installed games.

list of installed packages: Get-AppxPackage
package info: Get-AppxPackageManifest
starting app: start shell:AppsFolder{FamillyId}!{ApplicationId}

When selecting "Installed" and "Hidden" filter only "Hidden" games are visible. Is it suppose to work as logical AND and show games that are both "Installed" and "Hidden"?

Not sure how to reproduce this, but window position is sometimes set to -32000 on both axes, which means that window is not visible on next start.
