    • There is an option to automatically tag games with unknown save data.
  • Changed:

v0.12.1

1 year ago
  • Fixed:
    • If a game had multiple platforms listed in its metadata, then it would not trigger any automatic backups before/during/after play (manual backups worked as expected). The plugin now properly handles games with multiple platforms.
    • When distinguishing PC and non-PC games, the plugin only considered the first platform listed in the game details. It now considers all platforms listed.
    • On confirmation prompts, the plugin would preemptively say "this game requires a matching custom entry" for non-PC games. However, that assumption isn't always true. Now, the plugin just adds this message onto the error notification when Ludusavi doesn't recognize a game.
    • If you had both game- and platform-based automatic backups enabled after play, then the game backup might not be done yet when the platform backup was attempted, resulting in the platform backup aborting. The plugin now waits until the game backup is done before attempting the platform backup.
  • Changed:

v0.12.0

1 year ago
  • Added:

    • An option to automatically tag games with backups. This requires Ludusavi 0.14.0 or newer.

    • An option to look up games under a different name. This allows you to resolve Playnite/Ludusavi naming discrepancies without creating a custom entry in Ludusavi.

      Right now, this is simply a text box where you can enter the desired lookup name. Once Ludusavi 0.16.0 is released, it will allow the plugin to show a searchable list of Ludusavi's known titles.

  • Fixed:
    • Games could not be backed up if they had Unicode characters in their title (e.g., "Ninja Gaiden Σ").
    • With older versions of Ludusavi, the plugin would report that there was nothing new to back up, even if it did make a new backup.

v0.11.1

1 year ago
  • Fixed:
    • Crash when trying to open a nonexistent folder from the settings window.
  • Changed:

v0.11.0

1 year ago
  • Added:
    • The plugin now indicates when there was nothing new to back up or restore. When doing a full scan, the expanded list also indicates new (+) or updated (Δ) for each game. This is enabled if you have Ludusavi 0.14.0 or newer.
    • When backing up or restoring a specific game, the plugin now indicates when Ludusavi knows it by a different name. Example: Backed up saves for Playnite Title (↪ Ludusavi Title). This is enabled if you have Ludusavi 0.14.0 or newer.
    • An option to look up games by a normalization of their titles. For example, this means the plugin can retry "Some Game: Special Edition (2022)" as just "Some Game" if Ludusavi didn't recognize the original title. If the normalized title produces multiple matches, the plugin chooses the first one. This setting only takes effect if you have Ludusavi 0.14.0 or newer.
    • Plugin settings to override the backup format, compression, and retention. These will still default to whatever you have configured in Ludusavi itself, but now you can override it from Playnite. These settings only take effect if you have Ludusavi 0.14.0 or newer.
    • On startup, the plugin will show a one-time notification if a newer version of Ludusavi is recommended for the best experience.
  • Changed:
    • When Ludusavi 0.14.0 or newer is installed, the plugin now uses the find command to look up games. As a side effect, a game's Steam ID (if applicable) is now checked before its title rather than after.
    • For compatibility with Ludusavi 0.14.0, the plugin now passes --force to the backup command. This remains compatible with older versions as well.
