Import standalone games and Steam Input support #198

Open 2ndHouse opened 2 years ago

2ndHouse commented 2 years ago

I'm currently trying out BoilR on Windows and I couldn't find a way to import a standalone (without a launcher) non-Steam game .exe, so I just added it manually in Steam. After searching around it seems that non-Steam games can often break Steam Input controller configuration functionality. Apparently SteamGridDB Manager's importer could fix this problem when importing games, but the project is no longer in development since a few years now.

Would like to see a future version of BoilR be able to:

  1. Let the user browse and import standalone programs/games
  2. Give the user the option of making imports Steam Input compatible (if possible, not sure what SteamGridDB's method for accomplishing this was).

I second this! It would be nice to import the game and select it's images from one place rather than have multiple steps.
