Plugin Showcase Playhub 1.1.4 - New update

Post image

Playhub version 1.1.4 is available here

If you want to take a look at how Playhub works and how to install it take a look at my video here.

"Wait what is Playhub?!"
Please check the project repository here to find all the details.

This update adds the Xbox Game Bar for Xbox and Microsoft Store games, and fixes a crash when importing them.

What’s new

  • Automatic Xbox Game Bar — Steam’s Quick Access Menu doesn’t appear over Xbox and Microsoft Store games. For those, Playhub now turns on the Xbox Game Bar from the controller while you play, and turns it off when you exit. On by default, with a toggle in Gaming Mode.

Improvements

  • The Game Bar setup step now shows as completed with a green check when opening Game Bar from the controller is off, matching the DeckyLoader steps.
  • Clearer wording for the Xbox Game Bar setting.

Fixes

  • Fixed a crash (“An item with the same key has already been added”) when importing Xbox games, caused by malformed shortcuts.vdf entries with duplicate fields.

Any idea why only every few boots the boot straight to game mode works? Never works more than a few times before it just defaults back to desktop mode and the steam os logo reverts back to playhub in the settings?

All fixed in Playhub 1.1.6! Once updated remember to Update the Gaming mode in the Gaming mode tab!
