Default Steam Images as an image source

Open rombat opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

When using Steam parser, is there a way to keep/load Steam default artworks? For some titles and artwork types, I'd like to keep the default ones, but I can't find out how.

Currently there is no way to do this as all of our images come from SGDB. There is no website that hosts official steam artwork and has an api, so I would have to scrape their cdn directly. I could do it, so this will eventually get added. I was hoping that by now someone would have added an actual api, but alas.

And could it be possible to allow the exclusion of an artwork type replacement for a given game? Even if the default artwork is not displayed.

SGDB can display original Steam assets, so maybe something can be done with this

I am going to close this issue as I don't plan to implement it unless steamgriddb adds some official steam artwork api.
