i'm hoping for a way to unset catagories after they are no longer valid. i had catagories for ratings set for ever 10% rating. and then i noticed i had alot in 90 so i made that only valid to 94 instead of 99 and made one from 95-99 but all the ones that were set to 90 before are still set to 90 and now also any that are 95+ are in that too.

How about ratings? "92 % gave a positive review" would translate to "92 %", maybe also include votes in a separate column.

Hasn't been updated in 5 months, and many games have been released since then. The auto categories are not working properly because of this.

Flags like single-player, coop multiplayer, controller support, etc.

Error updating from local files:
Unexpected character '7' found when expecting key.

Pretty much says what it does.

When I open depressurizer it gives me that error.

Here is the log btw 💠

14:28:36.558735 - ERR: Exception when performing local update.

Steam uses

• Single-player
• Multi-player
• Cross-Platform Multiplayer
• Co-op
• Local Co-op

as a way to narrow searches down in the store. These would be useful for auto-categorization purposes.

This is the error message it provides

Basically, I'd love to see the tags and genre info for each game but I don't want them to directly affect my categories like the autocat does.

Currently, the program can only show all games that are in a particular category.

Provide an "advanced" category selector that allows categories to be:

• Included: games with at least one of these may show up in the game list.
• Required: games must be in all of these in order to show up in the game list.
• Excluded: games in these categories will not show up in the games list.

The old category selector will remain in place, the advanced one would simply be a non-default option.

I set up categories on one computer. but the changes are not showing up on my other computer. Do i need to do something else to make it sync the changes back up to the server?

It still works fine though.

first of all, thanks for making this wonderful software, i've been using it for years and it's been really helpful with managing my steam library.

i propose a feature to automate a bit of Depressurizer.
the idea goes as follows:

• launching depressurized with a command line argument (like -auto, for example).
  what it would do:
• start and look for a user-defined auto-categorization preset. (by achievements, flags, genres, etc)
• backup, auto-categorize using the preset and apply/export settings
• close itself and launch steam in regular or big picture mode.

i hope you guys like the idea. :)

The coop identifier exists in the steam store, I would really want to have a Co-op category because sometimes me and my friends are trying to choose the next game to play and having a list to choose from would be very useful.

Sets of categories where adding a game to one category would remove it from all the others in the set. Could be used for a set like ["Finished"/"Unfinished"] where it doesn't make sense to have a game in both.

Method would be to create a list of tags, sorted by popularity, with the more popular tags first. The user would then select the tags they wanted applied as categories from a list. The ones that they are more likely to want to use would be found close to the beginning of this list.

Tags that match store genre names could optionally be filtered out to avoid clutter at the top of the list.

When using the auto-category mode there appears to be no difference if single-category mode is enabled or disabled, and games will get the same categories either way. (i.e. Dark Souls II will be categorized as both action and rpg, which is more than a single category)

It would be useful if it was possible to categorize by supported platform (Win\OSX\Linux)

Using e.g. mono, the free impementation of .net

I have over 500 games, the summer sale pushing me over 500 only recently, and as soon as I hit over 500 I have about 98 games that have had their categories erased in the steam client. When I open depressurizer they are all still categorized. I use the Store Tags option most often and the other Auto-Cat options don't work either.

most of "Narrow by number of players" categories are available through autocat tags but it misses "Shared/Split Screen"

My apologies if this exists but I haven't figured it out yet...

The ability to be able to set custom names for the categories (pulled from Steam) would help tremendously! Why? Because currently Steam will list your categories alphabetically by name, the issue with that is I may want to list some categories higher than others (like my "Play ASAP" category or the "Co-Op" category) so to get around this I currently assign prefixes to the categories, like 01 Play Asap, 02 Co-Op etc. so that then the categories are listed in the order I wish them to appear...

Secondly, would it be possible to add multiple genres to a custom category? For example, I like to group Action and Adventure games into an Action-Adventure category, so an option to specify that ANY games that match the tag "Action" and "Adventure" will be instead added to the "Action-Adventure" category rather than their separate categories (optional).

Thanks in advance!

This would help streamline figuring out what the heck things are when they've been removed from the store, but still otherwise exist on steam.

Is it possible to give us an option to include other user-defined tags for auto-cat? For example: Tower Defense, Sci-fi, Visual Novel... Thanks.

I am setting this up for the first time, and it all ran smoothly, except in "Select User," it found two accounts. Mine, and someone named Plon. I have no idea who this is, or why the profile would be found on my machine. Literally not a single other person has ever used this machine. And not a single other person in the network has ever used Steam, either.

I can just choose my "real" account, which is listed, but I am more concerned at figuring out why this other profile is on my machine than just ignoring it.

Program version: 0.6.1.0

A fatal error has occurred in Depressurizer. The program will now terminate.

Just in case here is my prefs and library: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/11450709/Depressurizer-lib.zip

Currently there is no way to create a category for games in common with friends. Would there be a way to add something like (create "X" category of games that are "Coop", In Common With "James952", and are "Open World and Sci-Fi")? Sorry if this does not go here, I did not know where else to put it.

Option would allow a user to set simple OR/AND/AND NOT conditions based on categories of a game. This would allow the user to set up more useful categories.

Examples:
a) Category: Multiplayer only; Condition: Multiplayer AND NOT Singleplayer (means all games that have only the first category and not the second one)
b) Category: Indie RPG; Condition: Indie AND RPG (means all games that have both categories)
c) Category: Causal/Family; Condition: Causal OR Family (means all games that have one of the two categories)

This should also work with combinations of categories and flags of a specific game.

depressurizer insists that my profile is not public even though it actually is. I'm able to get an xml list of my library by manually going to a url like
http://steamcommunity/profiles/xxx/games/?tab=all&xml=1

but not the url fetched by depressurizer without a trailing slash on "games"
http://steamcommunity/profiles/xxx/games?tab=all&xml=1
this one falls back the profile "home page"

The rename category command isn't reassigning the games to the new category. It appears to delete the old category and create a new one, but any games in the deleted category are not automatically assigned to the new one so the renamed category ends up being empty.

Is there any way I can revert back to the default alphabetical order in steam library?

Example: With significant number of games / categories, go to and sort by title, and then sort by category.

Actual Result: The games are sorted by categories, but appear to be randomly shuffled on all other columns.

Desired Result: The game are sorted by category, then title, as would happen in excel with a two paramater sort, or in many other data-list-with-column widgets like this.

Option would allow the user to filter the displayed game list with a simple text input box based on the game title (like it's possible in the steam library).

Example:
Filter: "Beta"
Results displayed:
Left 4 Dead 2 Beta
Nexuiz Beta
Rising Storm Beta
...

In the next step this could also be used as a condition for auto categorization and could then be even more useful for the user.

For some reason some of the games in my library don't show genres in the database editor, even though there are tags for them on the store page.

Here's an example:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/46410/

I tried updating the whole database from the steam store, but not one age check could be passed by Depressurizer. I've changed the log levels for the relevant errors to warning and had the following messages in the log (not complete, I've omitted most of them as they only differ in the app id):

It seems like the "birthtime"-cookie is not enough to circumvent the age check.

If I have categories named "Collection 1" and "Collection 2", both including Steam and non-Steam games. Then:

1. I close Steam.
2. I do any change within Depressurised (even if it does not involve those 2 collections). Close the program (exporting to Steam).
3. When I reopen Stem, the games are scrambled on the two collections: some of those from collection 1 are in collection 2 and vice versa.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

I noticed that a lot of these are games that come with a base game, but do not have a store page for themselves. Some of these are also games that are not available on steam anymore, could you make them not show up in the list? Also some of these are beta versions of games, could those be categorized in their own category, along with the categories for the base game.

and also the ability to order/add column for that field.
Categories in descending order.

• Developer/Publisher data (self-explanatory)
• Profile achievement status could allow achievement completion percentage groupings, eg. the user sets up something like [0,0], (0-10], (10-50], [50, 75], (75, 100] and can have their games placed into up to five progress-based categories
  • Additionally could have something like remaining achievements, with raw integer values, or user groupings of them
• Size on disk, with a similar scheme as above, maybe allow usage of mega/giga suffixes so that it could look something like [0, 650M), [650M, 4.7G), [4.7G, 25G], (25G, -1) which could be useful for someone willing to backup the installation directories into whole disk media such as CD, DVD, Bluray.

Pretty much self explanitory.

Just another couple of categories for trading cards and achievements.

Preferably seperately.

Cheers

Depressurizer shows the games as I have set them up, with manual categories (i.e. Beaten, Want to Beat, Won't play, etc) and exports cleanly.

When Steam loads however, any games that are installed are not recognizing category set in depressurizer and are showing as uncategorized.

This was working until recently. Running v 0.6.

I'm getting this error when running Depressurizer, not sure what the cause is. I searched and it seems a few others have had this issue as well.

following Problem:
i try to sort the Games by Store Genre, but its simply not working anymore.
Its not respecting the settings, sometimes it only creates an Early Access Group.
After setting the stuff again, its not creating any new groups at all. I tried this with several setups and with different genres checked. Once it created all Groups but not the one for Action.
Dunno what happend to my installation. I did a complete reset by deleting all related files for a fresh new start but i still cant get it to work.

Further, some Games are not correctly scraped: i.e. Koi Koi Japan is not getting the Steam Achievements Flag for me.

This is how the Steam client sorts. Any categories are listed first. After all the tagged games are listed, anything left over is listed under "games". But when you sort by the "Categories" column in Depressurizer, is listed first.

For example, when using genre-based autocat, you could assign the "Genre" prefix and get categories like "Genre - Action" and "Genre - RPG"

I'm going around my system saving files because I'm about to reflash from my Win7 image, and I noticed Depressurizer stores its settings in AppData\Roaming\Depressurizer. Darn, another thing to backup when I do this.

If the user prefers, would you mind letting Depressurizer store its settings in its own folder? Keeps things neater for folks like me.

Thanks for the great tool.

If you don't want an Indie category, you could set it to ignore that

The information about which games a user owns can be found in local config files.

Parsing and combining information from several files within the Steam folder can provide a more accurate list than downloading the profile info, and can do it much more quickly.

This would also eliminate the requirement for the Steam profile to be public.

This would be sensitive to file format changes and other issues, so the current method would remain in place as a backup information source.

After using depressurizer regularly its sadly still a hassle of keeping games sorted the way i want...
I think there could be a different approach of how the sorting into groups may be done.
My idea:
I want to set up a group and I want to check different flags/tags/etc of games that will show up in that group.
So all i have to do is set up a group called Hidden Object Games and add the Hidden Object flag to that group. After an update all new games that got that information will be put into that group automatically. There may be more flags/tags as requirements, or tags that exclude games.
What do you think about it?

First I want to say thank you very much for all your hard work. My library definitely is far more sane than it was. That said I do need one last thing if you could and the main goal of seeking your application out in the first place.

Could you please add the ability to create separate categories for the following:

Narrow by number of players:
Single-player
Multi-player
Cross-Platform Multiplayer
Co-op
Local Co-op

For me my biggest gripe with my library is trying to figure out what I can actually play with someone, or even gift them for that purpose.

This option would allow users to categorize games manually and export that sets to make it possible for other users to import them. This would also require a mode where the whole steam library could be categorized, not only the games the user owns.
Example of the content of exported data (simple text file):
Hidden Object Games; 32140; 208620; 208630; 208640; 218700; ...
