Some Steam games can't be recognized correctly
I played Counter-Strike: Source, and wakoopa thought it was Half-Life 2, and lots of HL mods have this problem.
I do read this topic:http://getsatisfaction.com/wakoopa/topics/wakoopa_tracker_badly_detect_which_steam_games_we_played. But it seems that with v1.0.7 tracker, they can still not be recognized correctly.
Please fix this, thanks a lot.

Inappropriate?See http://gsfn.us/t/84im for my take on this. The issue of actual mods can't really be handled by Wakoopa, and in fact, since they are mods of existing games and not new games themselves, I don't know if they really need to be.
However, the issue of Wakoopa tracking the HL2 episodes, TF2, CS:Source, etc. as Half-Life 2 is correctable, so long as the file path to the game executable is tracked. Since Steam keeps each game segregated to its own directory (and, in fact, segregated by user as well) the tracker just needs to know where Steam is installed. From there, you can find out what game is running, and what Steam account is running it, by comparing the full .exe file path to this:
<steam path>\steamapps\<user name>\<game name>\hl2.exe

Still not working for me properly. -
I reinstalled my operating system & also the wakoopa tracker for some reasons. I don't know why but the game title & playing time finally seems to be all right. Good luck.
-
Ah. Probably pushed a tracker update that I've not received yet, then. Guess I should reinstall the tracker.
-
Inappropriate?This is still an issue we're investigating and working on. Because of the half-life engine we have to make sure the tracker separates the mods as different applications.
Please use the software-feedback to let us know when you're certain you've used a mod and it got classified as plain half-life or another software.4 Comments Add a comment

Well, it seems to be doing a much better job, now, although it's still not detecting Episode Two properly. Of course, that might be because ep2 still doesn't have a database entry.
-
I've looked into this and created the appropiate entry: http://wakoopa.com/software/halflife-...
-
Seems like this entry can't be found now.
-
I updated the entry and renamed it to match ep1's name; that changed the URL to http://wakoopa.com/software/half-life... (which the old URL should have redirected to).
