So i moved my initial post here instead of the WSGF Medals for Steam [Chrome/Firefox Extension] thread for the reason being I'm going to be posting more over the next couple of days so here is the oiginal post which is now deleted from the other thread.
Good evening gents,
Delphium pointed me in this direction as I've been working on a system for matching my steam library against WSGF. This app (will be an app later it's currently a bit of hacked together code) will then be able to display "you have these games in your library here is the WSGF ratings" and "you have these games but they don't match WSGF you may be able to contribute"
I started a thread here
http://www.wsgf.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=25668 which has started well however this is the current issues I'm working on and probably need help or info from CJM and Brett (Delphium told me you two)
Issue 1: When I access
http://www.wsgf.org/mgl/xml it seems to only have 82 nodes, it was mentioned that it only displays games with Steam IDs so completely understand
Issue 2: some of those 82 nodes still don't show Steam ID, it seems to be blank
Then this is the next phase, questions
Question 1: Is there any chance on an xml format version like the existing one that isn't restricted by steam id?
Question 2: if not could I get sent a version as to code the system I'm planning on doing however handing it over at the end for WSGF to "install" and look at
Finally something I've done for you (possibly if you haven't yet)
I took the MGL and literally copy/pasted all titles into a CSV, yes all 1279, from there I did a title match on the
Steam Master Games List. This was a simple title match but was able to match 503 games with their steam ID, the resulting
file is here however probably not in a useful format.
I'm happy to code the rest of my project based on these 500 matches as it will give me a good start point to match my library against WSGF.
I just hope you can help with the Questions and Issues above and answer this final question:-
Do you want me to write the matching system as described at the start or should I stop now
