The thing is, playnite won't show the ludusavi plugin settings... any help? image

Hi! Just to confirm, in the installed > generic section, is Ludusavi listed as installed and enabled?

this is how it is listed, i have just updated it to 0.16 thinking that maybe the reinstall on the update would fix it but no luck

Hmm, I haven't seen that "extension failed to load properly" message before. Could you please send me a few files for troubleshooting?

playnite.log extensions.log config.json

there you go my friend

mtkennerly commented 1 month ago

Somehow, your config.json got into a bad state, but I'm not sure how. The issue is that the paths, like D:\Programas\Ludusavi\ludusavi.exe, should have the backslashes escaped, as in D:\\Programas\\Ludusavi\\ludusavi.exe. Normally, when you edit the paths in Playnite, they get written with the escapes in the config file automatically, so I'm not sure why they didn't in this case. Did you edit the file manually, by any chance?

To fix it, you can replace your config.json with this one, and it should start working: config.json

you genius, all fixed!!!! thank you so much for taking the time to help a fellow gamer ♥ althoug is weird how this happened, bc it was all clean install, even my windows, i just formatted my pc due to an error during a mainteinance (and i hadn't formatted it in like 3 years), and no manual setting on path either, it auto set by opening playnite with ludusavi opened... anyway, thanks again, you're a ray of sunshine ♥

No problem! Glad it's working now :)

Yeah, that's pretty weird. The default executable path is just ludusavi (without any folders or .exe), so I'm not sure how the config got changed. If you run into any issues like that again, please let me know.
