[RELEASE] Metro - 4.4

22 settembre 2019 - Dom | 52 commenti

My curiosity got the best of me so I looked into adding support for the new library. I was initially planning to wait for the stable release for fear it would break Metro users not yet on the beta, but it turns out that fear was unwarranted! A fix is possible that supports both the stable and beta releases! This release also includes a couple of layout bugs I found while looking around the client. Check out out the full changelog below!

Edit:
Getting a few questions in the comments about what this update means. Without it, if one uses the Steam Library beta release with Metro 4.3.1 installed you'll get a blank screen with some strange bits in the upper-left corner. If you're on the beta release and have 4.4 installed, you'll notice that it adds support for the new Steam library as-is with some additional layout fixes. If you're on the stable release, you should only notice the layout fixes. This update won't enable the new library automatically.

In regards to skinning the new library, I'm reading that it's possible by overwriting default Steam files. That's pretty dang cool, but I have no plans to release any Metro updates utilizing this method. I'm hoping that in the future Valve will add a skin system/selector similar to what Steam supports now. Until then, we've got a bit of a hybrid thing going on!

Steam Library Beta and Metro for Steam

17 settembre 2019 - Dom | 87 commenti

Hey!

I just wanted to drop in and share some details regarding Metro and the new Steam Library beta.

We are, indeed, approaching the end of an era as Valve introduces newly overhauled portions of Steam. With these overhauls comes the lack of ability to officially theme the client like we could in the past. One can hope that Valve reintroduces theming support at some point in the future! Should they not, then I would be remiss if I didn't say that this was one hell of a ride! That said, I'm really glad we experienced it together.

Until next time,
Dom

Edit:
Reading through the comments is always so heartwarming. Y'all are so kind.

Aye, the discussion is mostly taking place here: https://gtm.you1.cn/groups/metroskin/discussions/0/141136086931804907/?ctp=83#c3824162050999006004

The new Steam client beta update dropped, and the interface got a big overhaul (now it's on Electron I guess). Changed almost (if not) every window to the new design (including settings).

However, with all of that, there is no button to change skin: https://i.imgur.com/LOy4lo2.png
So it can be said that skinning for Steam is officially dead.

It's been a fun ride. Thank you everyone involved in this project. I used that skin almost since the beginning.
