What's New in Version 0.4.0.0 See changelog
Released
New in this version:
- Moved to my SteamVent library. No more Interop context between 32 and 64 bit. Scanning Steam for games should now run about 5000 times faster (I am not kidding).
- Added logic to copy metadata from Steam as well as Clear Logos, "fanart", and SteamGrid images.
- Removed BigBox specific logic, reducing feature set but extending lifetime of functionality for this plugin.
