Copy Cover Image to Grid Folder for a BigPicture Mode Cover #23

Closed NightHammer1000 closed 1 year ago

Added a fast little hack that copies the Playnite Cover Image over into the "grid" Folder in the Steam Userdata Folder. This causes Steam to Load the Image as a Cover in Big Picture and the Cover View in Steam.

No entry in vdf files necessary.

The Image Files Require a Special Format. File Name has to be p.png"

LegacySteamID is the Top_32 of SteamURL Calculation.

The script takes care of that.

Probably not the cleanest code. My first time using Python but it Works.

Also added a line to copy the Background Image to be used in Steam as a Header for the Game Page.

These Changes work, but only if every selected entry has all the Images needed. Else it fails. It needs more checks for Failstates.
