How to link a playnite entry with a custom game entry #15

Closed LightShaft closed 3 years ago

LightShaft commented 3 years ago

Hello, Here is my problem: I admit I cracked Kingdom Hearts and I think that's why ludusavi can't find my savegame automatically (I even checked the manifest because I thought it was an update problem, but it's not). Too bad, so I make a custom entry following the paths indicated by PCGamingwiki but Playnite still tells me that it doesn't find any data. So the question is : how to make ludusavi-playnite know that my Kingdom Hearts entry corresponds to such custom entry, so that it can finally find my savegame, no matter if my game is cracked or not ? I can always backup my savegame manually with ludusavi but it's more convenient with the playnite extension. Thanks a lot.

Hi! I don't know whether I'm allowed to comment on cracked games specifically, but that doesn't affect Ludusavi's behavior anyway. For any game (custom entry or otherwise), you just need to make sure that Playnite and Ludusavi are using the same name. Double check that the game title in your custom entry (and/or in the manfiest) matches the game title you have in Playnite. The titles have to be 100% identical, including capitalization and spaces, or else they won't link up.

Thanks for your answer So I've modified the custom entry in ludusavi and it works properly now, the custom entry name was actually a little bit different ... So my bad lol. Thanks a lot for your help and thanks a lot for ludusavi, it works a LOT better than similar softwares I've used before :)
