SuccessStory

[Lacro59]

v0.8 Is great, it has so much good stuff!
I have found one bug though, it doesn't really affect my personal use much, but other people might take issue more and I may like to use it some times.



This window pops up when I try to open SuccessStorys comparison window via the Extensions window.

And if I click the Achievements button in a games details view, Playnite crashes.

Edit: I fixed it by changing the PNG that was targeted in the error.

Can you give more information that problem with file? Is it the icon game file?

---

Trying to install v 0.8 but unsuccessfully. Playnite just dont see v 0.8. With v. 0.7 there is no problems. Back to 0.7 for now.

It's possible to have a extract for playnite.log in %appdata%\Playnite or Playnite directory for portable application?

I want to say, that then im update your Statistics plugin, SuccessStory become working. Strange things

It's the reason that I update all plugin in the same time.
My plugins use a common library that I created.
It's in warnings part in plugin description.

The more important is that run correctly.

It was an icon for a game, I think it happens when an image is a Jpeg labelled as a PNG or some other image format, playnite and other image viewers can still figure out what it is and use the right codec to view it most of the time though anyway. SuccessStory and Game Media Tools both can't work out what they are though and skip them or crash.

I have a small feature request. Some games locked icons for acheivements are in colour, can we have a checkbox to choose to render locked acheivements in greyscale?

Can you get the game name?

Thanks for explication.

There are several games that are like this, I'll find a few that I remember:
Injustice 2 (you can see here they use the games cover art in full colour, a very odd choice I think...)
   
10 Second Ninja
Love Thyself - A Horatio Story
Darwin Project (This one also reminded me to mention there's some bad aliasing on some games achievements, it makes them look pixel. Also I know this one is very pale anyway)
   
Paradigm

Theres probably a bunch more, I wouldn't mind as much if all of them were in colour but only some of them are. It also makes it harder to see at a glance what you have unlocked for these games.

An alternative fix for this this that could look way better is to make your own icon for locked achievements, or even have a place where we can put our own so it can be any colour.

Or the locked achievement icon could be the unlocked icon with greyscale.

So options for locked acheivments could be:
☐ Locked achievements in greyscale

☐ Use platforms 'Locked achievement icons'
☐ Use platforms 'Unlocked achievement icons' as 'Locked achievement icon'
☐ Use custom locked achievement icon

Maybe you could make these changes per game?

All these ideas are making a mountain from an ant hill, there's more important stuff to add, really the only very needed addition I have listed is the greyscale for locked icons.

I would still love to be able to add my own custom achievements to a game though, where I can just manually toggle them on and off.

Your own custom achievements, what for? Could this be a solution to copy the ones from ms store for example?

Exactly, it provides a quick solution for platforms he has not yet implemented or may never be able to implement. As well as allowing you to add achievements for games that don't support them on PC, for example; Dead space and dead space 2. I played them both on Xbox 360, I didn't quite get all the achievements but planned to get the game again on PC and get them completed. But there are no steam or Origin achievements for them. However I can look up the achievements online and add them myself.

I could even be picky and only add achievements for completing the story as an external tracker to see what I have done so far. Or set a goal for a game like Overwatch, Like "Rank Gold", "Rank Platinum", "Rank Master" and so on for the competitive mode, these are not actually achievements in-game but I could add them to SuccessStory alongside the actual in-game achievements just because I want to.

You could make any achievements you like, the only caveat being of course that when you complete the achievement you must manually check it off the list.

Ah! I just remembered another thing.

Secret achievements, they are shown by default even if they are locked in SuccessStory. They should probably be hidden. Some times they are hidden for the sake of not spoiling something for example. I don't know if you can do this though.

For Xbox's game achievements, I'm studying a solution for their integration.

Interesting!
I had to ideas for integrate custom achievements like the elapsed time on a game and launch count.
But I note this ideas:

• achievement for game finished (and 100%)
  
• set achievement for a objectif personnal
  

For overwatch, I'm studying their integration.

You can post a issue for yours requests

[Alowen]

Any news on uplay for instance? With assassins creed and watchdogs coming, could be great to have them by then!

Will do, glad you like the ideas. I have a bunch for this particular plugin because this is all UI based and IU is my thing! XD
And I have always liked Achievement hunting too.

Could also import custom achivements from a site like this too.

I recently got the last of the AC games I had on Xbox 360, found out assassins creed 1, 2 and Brootherhood all don't have achivements on Uplay. feels bad.

[chaoling]

it doesn't work for me.
I think there was an error in the Drag in Drop installation.
look at my printscreen.

The extenstion don't appear beacause you have surely a Playnite installation.
The plugin is located in %appdata%\Playnite\Extensions

The last screenshot show that plugin is installed but not activate.
Have you try to activate it?

If it does not always run, can you get a extract from playnite.log in %appdata%\Playnite\ ?

[Argnara]

Hello, i was wondering if there would be any implementation of this for full screen mode in upcoming updates?

[SeeDborg]

Hello, I have always this error when I try to sync achievements from Steam :



Is it a known issue with a way to fix ?

[Rodark]

gotta ask since this seems really cool, does it work with pirated or emulated games?

I don't sure that the application usage and/or the author will permiss it.

What do Crow respond for that?
