HypersomniacLive: And done!

Hope I've not screwed up any IDs, and hope you like them.
That's great Hyper, I'm sure they're all fine.
I'll get working on them as soon as possible.

(Just to check, have you re uploaded and listed all the ones that needed doing or are there still some further back in the thread I need to get?)

No, I've re-uploaded only the remakes, and then the new ones.

I have no idea where you left off, but if you need to go back in the thread, I can recommend you a very nifty userscript, Adalia Fundamentals, which has a very advanced forum-search feature. You'll find all the necessary details in the link I gave you, and if you have any questions, just post in that thread, I'm sure the author will be more than happy to help you. ;-DD

No problem, I've downloaded all those and kept a list so I'll just go back to around the time I stopped and add anything that's not on the list already.

That sounds incredible!
He must be a pretty awesome guy.

Just make sure you're using the remakes where applicable - I know, for example, that you've already put the first Doom 2 cover up, so that one needs to be replaced, and check if there are any others.

According to him, he's just some guy. I guess he knows better. ;-P

Yeah, I've kept a list of the remakes so I won't take any older ones that are on that list.


I've just realised that I got that title wrong when I put it up...
It should be this guy (or more accurately "zis guy") not some guy...
Now I don't know whether to change it...

Whether some guy or zis guy, you sure are our guy.



One last (for now?) cover:

Earth 2150 - Lost Souls --> 1207661863

I exported my manual sort order and noticed that my wishlisted games are still on the list, in positions intermixed with other games (i.e. not -1), which would mean that once I eventually buy them, they will neither be at beginning of the library nor its end. While it doesn't affect me much, it might confuse others similarly afflicted. I wonder if anything can be done about it (e.g. delete from the sort order all the games that are not in the library).

I've implemented a fix that (as far as I can tell) stops it picking up the wishlist games now, but I should put something in to filter out any games that aren't in your actual game list as well as otherwise anyone who had previously picked them up would have to reset there sort order (or manually delete them from an export..) to clear them.

I'll get something sorted for the next update.

Right, I've uploaded all (I think) of Hyper's covers, let me know if there is anything missing or wrong (I have a feeling a few still need tweaked, particularly some may need the cover text removed)

I did it quickly, but hopefully there are no mistakes.

The overlay text wasn't showing on any covers for the past couple of days, I thought you had done something.

Reporting on the games I have - all covers are correct, and no overlay text anywhere. Cheers!


And if you don't mind, here's a less "busy" cover for Sacred Gold --> 1207658688

Nah, it only shows in a specific set of circumstances; and thanks to your covers those circumstances shouldn't really happen now. I could take it out completely but I think it's a handy fall back for when new games are added that unbundle. At least that way there is something to differentiate until new covers can be found.

Great :)

I'll do that one tomorrow.

Yes it is handy. I just don't understand what this "specific set of circumstances" is - the text was showing on Pthologic Classic HD even though that had a distinct cover from the beginning, and it also continued showing on Alone in the Dark 1 after the covers were replaced.

It's been a while since I've checked back in here, just wanted to say I love how AF is coming along. Kudos! It's wonderful. And barely any covers on legacy view that are blank.

Did a quick check and the only thing to report is that King Arthur's Collection the base game still has no cover (Fallen Champions is ok).
