Changed to use a single bitmap generator
to try and simplify and standardise the way
that images are extracted from the games.
Have tried to use every method to extract
icons from icon files and from exes, but it's
still not quite right :(
Currently struggling with the fact that
the smaller game icons don't get extracted
properly, and that they end up tucked into
the top left of the 256x256 bitmap at
32x32 size... so really tiny. Need to find a
fix for this so it always returns a 256x256,
and attempts to grow the 32x32 icons into
256x256 icons.
This is almost working. I'm struggling with
the icons loaded from various icon files which
are coming in really small rather than the large
size they should be. The .Net Icon constructor
isn't making an Icon the size I requested, so I may
need to change something else.
In this first working hotkey scenario
the DisplayProfiles and Shortcuts can
be run from Hotkey. I now need to add
the ability to run the mainfor, display profile
config page, and the shortcut library itself.
And of course add the items to the settings
window so they can be changed.
Have fixed the mistake I made with the
Parallel.Invoke actions where I accidentally
kept adding the SteamLibrary 3 times!
This now works well, and as a bonus the
game libraries are now thread safe!
The program compiles and pulls
origin game data into the application.
The steam refactor didnt work as there
are 3x entries for each game being loaded
and I need to see why!
Need to also test that the new Origin
shortcuts are being loaded and saved correctly
and that the RunShortcut works now it's had
a massive refactor.
Moved from basic static class to proper thread
safe singleton pattern for the GameLibrary to
simplify the code in ShortcutRepository.
Still only halfway through that ShortcutRepository
code refactor :(
The Task finds the origin games and
returns them. Just need to add the logic
to actually use the returned data to
populate the game library, as well as
use the game library in the shortcuts
as well as actually run the new library too!
Both Steam and Uplay library logic would error
when the library was installed, but didn't have
any installed games. Thanks to @joeymanson23
for the report. Fixes#4.
Adds a LOT more logging to the Steam and Uplay
libraries to allow for remote troubleshooting via
the log file, especially if the logging settings are
set to TRACE.
Also fixed the long standing issue for being able
to install two copies of DisplayMagician of the
same version. Now the installer will prevent that
from happening!
Combined DisplayMagicianShared logging into
the main log file to simplify log reporting for the
future. Also started adding info and debug
statements to the program to make the debug
level log work well for troubleshooting. This is
going to take a LONG time to complete, but will
be worth it in the end.
Toasts working for minimised start (allows use to
open the application) and for minimised close
(allows user to open the application or exit the
application).
Installer works, but there are a few issues with it.
- It doesn't register the DesktopBackground COM server
- It doesn't create a start menu shortcut with the AUMID
- It doesn't check for .Net Framework 4.8 or later
- It doesn't try to install .Net Framework 4.8 or later if not there
- It doesn't have any customised backgrounds...
- It doesn't ask to run DisplayMagician when install is finished
This registers the Application User Model ID
with Win 10 so that it recognises the application
and can interact with it. This allows Toasts, Taskbar
pinning, right-click menus and other functions to
work.
Fixed an issue where Steam and Uplay don't detect the
game correctly. Now they find the processes themselves.
Also fixed ProgramSettings so that it generates a new
settings file on startup.
Also added LogLevel option to the ProgramSettings so that
I can start rolling out the NLog log statements to report
errors from the binary when it's installed on people's
PCs.
