Hi all,
As a disabled gamer, I'm a massive fan of Steam's "Big Picture" mode, as it means if I can't move much, I can launch and play games directly from a controller in bed.
GOG Galaxy 2 (afaik) doesn't have a similar feature as of yet, and I'm not sure if they're intending to implement one.
On the assumption GOG will not be developing a version, I wouldn't mind trying to make one myself which leads me to more questions.
I can easily hook in CSS and JavaScript into the web UI and modify as necessary. This is all well and good (if hacky), but debugging is a nightmare as the UI is stored in a CEF container and I'm not sure if it has remote debugging turned on.
I can see that the Client communicates with the Service on port 9977, but I can't find any way to use that to my advantage.
Is there any kind of open API or anything we can use to hook into the Service? If not, I think modifying the web UI might be the only way to do it, but that opens up it's own issues :/
Anyone have any thoughts or knowledge of any of these things?
