How does the Steam feature work?

[T. Goodchild]

I managed to set it up but I have a few questions:

1. Does it store the artwork locally (thumbs/videos) or pull it from Steam and if local where are they located?

2. Is there any way to edit paths of artwork and database descriptions?

3. I have over 90 games on Steam, 41 installed and only 16 show up, 2 of them sale offers of games I already own. Can we manipulate specific paths to fix the rest?

I love the idea just don't know how to perfect it yet.

Everything is located in \media\steam and they are cached. its not possible to change things right now. Could you post your log please?

Actually looking at the log I see an issue on my end. I had moved my games to a bigger HD and the old mount point was T:\ and the new one is D:\.

Will do, I'll reinstall them to the right drive this time and let ya know if anything weird happens.

Thumbnails work great now and all I had to do to see the games I didnt "see" was to go Steam > game properties > verify game cache. I tried with X-Com and it popped up just fine on the next launch. Thanks for the quick fix!
