RE: HowLongToBeat - JourneyOver - 02-19-2021

Things look to be working now in 1.4.4, the only thing missing is just the box art when viewing the data but that's not really a big issue or anything.

Edit: Actually scratch that, some stuff still isn't working like sending data up to hltb.. it seems to be trying to send either the wrong ID or something.

Example:

I've made a report on the github repository: https://github.com/Lacro59/playnite-howlongtobeat-plugin/issues/70

Thanks for the updates Lacro.

RE: HowLongToBeat - K1LL3R_PUNCH - 04-07-2021

so, it's automatically upload your playtime in compleated games, or i should do something else to share it with other players?:0

The plugin can update your HowLongToBeat play time from within Playnite.
The converse is not true.

You can open an issue if you want this functionality.

RE: HowLongToBeat - Gogoroth - 04-17-2021

This is a great plugin. I was actually trying to learn programming myself so I could do something like this, although this is way better than I was hoping for.

One thing I would like, would it be possible to sort your library by how close they are to being completed. I filter so I only see the games I'm currently playing and I'd like to sort them so I easily see which ones are closest to being completed.

RE: HowLongToBeat - fillidill - 05-10-2021

Hmm.. I must be doing something wrong. I am trying to make the progress bar show up on the game details page (in fullscreen mode) but whatever I do nothing shows up. I've added below code and made sure the checkbox is checked for full screen integration in the settings. What am I missing? :/


<StackPanel Name="PART_hltbProgressBar" Width="800" Height="50" />

In full screen mode, the plugin controls aren't available.
It should change with Playnite9.

RE: HowLongToBeat - Cr3ViL - 05-26-2021

Hi, thanks for your great work, is there a way to change the little progress icon? or can you add an option to change it (then we can use it with something like this Link)

RE: HowLongToBeat - Unreal_Ed - 06-05-2021

So I just checked and found out that NONE of the times I've ever "sent" to HowLongToBeat have actually been uploaded.

Few notes: it very often gives me the "HLTB requires authentication" notification. I get an "HLTB not set to a reference object" error sometimes. When I sign in, on the site my account is listed as "Unreal_ed" but in the settings, next to the "User is authenticated" text it says "Account Name Unrealed" (no underscore) so maybe that's why they're not getting uploaded?

Does the "Update All" button actually upload data or does it only download data from the site?

RE: HowLongToBeat - keysr - 07-01-2021

Any way of marking a game, for example, as completed on HLTB from Playnite?

It is possible to have a custom cursor.
But with your example, we will not see it because the bar is thin.

I don't understand.

I'm still watching this problem.

It downloads the data when it is missing and according to these options:

It is technically possible.

RE: HowLongToBeat - bettafo - 08-07-2021

Good day!
Nice plugin, thank you for creating it and making it available.
I have a few game entries for which the plugin did not work properly, with two kind of symptoms: either nothing happens when I do HowLongToBeat>View How Long to Beat Data, or Playnite downright crashes when the game is selcted and HowLongToBeatDAta is retrieved (automatically by theme or manuall by the user with HowLongToBeat>View How Long to Beat Data). In both cases, the option to delete HowLongToBeat data is not available anymore.
i suspect that the data may have been corrupted or improperly written in all these cases and I would like to manually delete the that data and see if it solves the problem for those few game entries.

So my question is: where (in what file/file section) does the plugin store its data for a given game?

Cheers

When the plugin does not display the window, there is no data corruption.
Is that the game has no time data (example)
The next version will fix this.

To delete a specific data.
You must have the "Database Id":
[attachment=1790]
And go in extention data:
[attachment=1791]
In the folder "HowLongToBeat", you must delete file with "Database Id" name and restart application.

Thank you for the rapid answer.

Ok. so I started checking and indeed some of the games that were problematic fall into the category that you mentioned.
Unfortunetely, I also have counter-examples:
AI War 2 did not display a window, but howlongtobeat.com has data for it (Main Story: 4 hours)

Here was the content of the .json file:
{"Items":[{"Name":"AI War 2","Id":56343,"UrlImg":"https://howlongtobeat.com/games/56343_AI_War_2.jpg","Url":"https://howlongtobeat.com/game?id=56343","GameHltbData":{}}],"Id":"af3fbb6f-5d88-41a3-b62b-45d52207252d","Name":"AI War 2"}

Malformed data? Data that did not exist when I first queried HowLongToBeat and that the plugin does not know how to update now that there is data?
I have no idea but hopefully you will.

After deleting the .json file and restarting Playnite, the plugin did fetch the data for this game correctly.
New content of the .json file:
{"Items":[{"Name":"AI War 2","Id":56343,"UrlImg":"https://howlongtobeat.com/games/56343_AI_War_2.jpg","Url":"https://howlongtobeat.com/game?id=56343","GameHltbData":{"MainStory":14400}}],"Id":"af3fbb6f-5d88-41a3-b62b-45d52207252d","Name":"AI War 2"}
--------------------

Here is an example of .json file that would crash Playnite:

Game: Anno 1503: The New World
Content of the .json file:
{"Items":[null],"Id":"0385db1b-d7e4-4e40-b60d-40fbbe478647","Name":"Anno 1503 AD: the New World complete"}

I suppose the [null] value could not be handled properly.
Deleting the .json file ended the crashes and allowed to fetch proper values:
New content of the .json file:
{"Items":[{"Name":"Anno 1503 The New World","Id":487,"UrlImg":"https://howlongtobeat.com/games/Anno_1503_TheNewWorld.jpg","Url":"https://howlongtobeat.com/game?id=487","GameHltbData":{"MainStory":149400,"MainExtra":181800}}],"Id":"0385db1b-d7e4-4e40-b60d-40fbbe478647","Name":"Anno 1503 AD: the New World complete"}



I keep checking my game entries and can post other examples if that is useful to you.
Cheers et bonne fin de semaine.

RE: HowLongToBeat - AlexMagnus - 08-10-2021

Bonjour Lacro,

Great addin, I love it!
I have an issue with the tags, and tried several operations.
For instance, I did the following: First, allow the addin to add some tags to my games. I can see the tag [HLTB] to the list of tags, but the games haven't the tag. So, I download the data from HLTB. Same thing, tags are not ticked. I tride again to allow the extension to add some tags, tried agin the download... But I don't have any tag ticked

What are the correct steps to follow ?
Thanks a lot !

Have you check the option "Add tag" in plugin settings?
If the option is already checked, can you publish your playnite.log?

RE: HowLongToBeat - AlexMagnus - 08-11-2021

Yes, box is ticked.

I tried again, and errors are visible in the log (at 21:04, today 11/08/2021)

Thanks for your help !

Try to delete all plugin tags in "Library Management":
[attachment=1826]
And try to add plugin tags in plugin menus.

RE: HowLongToBeat - FenixBlack1030 - 08-12-2021

Hi there! Something curious happens to me with your extension. It turns out that when I open the full screen mode with the extension enabled (either the default theme or bannerdark, among others), the screen is "locked" for several seconds, and then it works normally.
This problem also happens to me with succes story, in case it helps. However, it does not happen with any other add-on.
I would appreciate any advice and / or help.
EDIT: Another problem that I found: when I activate the integration to custom themes in the theme "eMixedNite", when going from game to game in my list, the transition suffers jerks / lag, which disappears when I deactivate the integration to custom themes.

Everything will change with Playnite 9.
Be wait.
