RE: HowLongToBeat - heartwork - 09-16-2020

In v0.5.3 trying to run the extension on recently added games results in:

Switching back to v0.5.2 works, though...

Edit: Completely deleting the Extension and its ExtensionData folder via explorer and re-installing 0.5.3. resolved the issue.

Aaaaand it's back:

RE: HowLongToBeat - Lacro59 - 10-02-2020

New release (v1.0):
  • Playnite 8 version
  • Many improvements


RE: HowLongToBeat - Lacro59 - 10-04-2020

It's possible to translate the extension on crowdin

RE: HowLongToBeat - rainbaux - 10-25-2020

Do you have any plans to support additional content/episodes? For example, the Back to the Future Telltale series. From Steam each episode is it's own game and with your extension I'm only able to scrape the time for the whole series atm. I can edit the json files in the extension data folder, but it's a lot of manual work.

Will you wish to see the detail of each episode?
But the game on your library contain all episode or there is a game by episode?

Looking directly at howlongtobeat.com, this game only has an entry for the game as a whole.  Some episodic games have entries per episode, others don't.  I don't see what Lacro's plugin could possibly do to extract per-episode playtimes when the source website doesn't have them.

Speaking in general, if HLTB has per-episode times recorded AND you have each episode separately in Playnite, then it should find them just as it does for any other game.  Check the option to show multiple results so you can choose the right one, just to be sure.

Well the game has times listed for each episode if you look at Back to the Future The Game but they are listed as additional content, basically DLC. So essentially what I'd need is a way to get the time for a DLC, which I'm not sure is possible or even worth the work considering how uncommon this issue is, I was just curious on if it had ever been considered. Strong Bad, Tales of Monkey Island, and Sam & Max are a few other examples.

RE: HowLongToBeat - Lacro59 - 11-06-2020

New release (v1.1):
  • Added color selector for progress bar
  • Used new menus system
  • Added new SDK window creation
  • Optimized integration ui
  • Many improvements


RE: HowLongToBeat - Leon12345 - 11-08-2020

Nice one, very useful, and I really really appreciate option to change colours. Though, I have tested it on default theme, and I have some issues with it.
1. When it starts with playnite, it looks fine like this

but each time I select another game, the bar keeps getting smaller, and ends up looking like this

2. That progress indicator acts as slider, that I can catch with mouse pointer and move manually. I don't think user should be able to control it like that?

3. Being able to change colour for number of hours as well would be nice, and colour of border for bar too (or option to disable border).
Thanks for your work

Edit: Turns out these mentioned issues all only affect the progress bar in game details. Works perfect in panel opened by button

Can you give more information on that you want?

RE: HowLongToBeat - Rettznom - 11-11-2020

Ran into a bit of an issue. I have a very large game library, and a decent chunk (well over 200+) of my games fail to get data because of more than one result shows up. At first that seemed okay, you can set it to show you a dialog box to choose between what games were found. The problem? It moves so fast between them that I don't have time to select one before another covers up the one I am looking at. Eventually so many boxes have popped up that Playnite crashes.

The only alternative is to painstakingly go through each and every one of my 400+ games and check to see the HLTB data, fixing the ones that don't as I go along. Please tell me there is another way to do this. I'd love to have all of the games I need to fix listed without having to sift through all 400+ of my games, but also have time to pick between them before Playnite crashes.

Update: Fixed in v1.1.1

I had the same issue, logged it here on the plugin's github page: https://github.com/Lacro59/playnite-howlongtobeat-plugin/issues/55

I wasn't able to find a workaround for the time being, unfortunately.  In previous editions, the plugin would stop and wait for the user to pick a game before moving on to the next pop up.  I'm sure this is just a glitch that will (hopefully) be easy to fix.

You're right, it was a bug. It is now fixed in v1.1.1

 I meant option to change font colour, but that is not important.

Found two more issues:
1. Error when switching Playnite to fullscreen

2. Doesn't load without internet connection

Can you post your Playnite.log?
Thanks.

RE: HowLongToBeat - Leon12345 - 11-22-2020

Attached log. 
I didn't see that you have already fixed the fullscreen error in v1.1.1, sorry. So it is just offline error.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Disconnect from internet
2. Launch Playnite with HowLongToBeat enabled
Result

RE: HowLongToBeat - Lacro59 - 12-13-2020

Warning!

Following a bad handling on my part, my plugin can create a crash.
To resolve this, go to the %AppData%\Extensions folder (or Playnite\Extensions if portable installation)
Delete all the folders of my extensions (starting with "playnite-").
Install the latest version.

Sincerely apologies for the inconvenience....

RE: HowLongToBeat - Rhaziel - 12-14-2020

All of your recent updated extensions give the error "Extension failed to load properly"...all of them!
I'm on Playnite 8.10. And i get this error only with your latest extensions, other extensions or plugins from other authors work just fine.
P.S. Solved it! You said to dele all of ur extensions from the Extensions folder...but me, as the idiot that i am, i did not pay attention. You said "can create a crash" and in my head, i was like "I have only an error no crash..this does not apply to my problem" -duh
Sorry for not paying attention. And thank you for your extensions...they are vital to my Playnite experience!
