[Feature Request] Import games from Humble Bundle

[Asier Serras]

It would be great to be able to import games from Humble Bundle. I’ve tons of games in that platfarom… Thank you!!!

Since when is HumbleBundle its own platform? They only provide Steamkeys and you can already import Steam Games.
Also if you are talking about the Treasuretrove games you can add them manually. Since the games are kept in Folders and all kinds of Setup files it wouldn’t be possible to add them automatically.

Since it started.

Some of the games, you can redeem then in steam or other platforms. But a lot of then, you have to download and install them from Humble Bundle.

You download the games onto your pc not onto a humblebundle platform like steam or origin. how do you want to track these games if you dont even have a humble bundle launcher software to search? The only way to add them (Treasuretrove Games & Special Releases linked in Bundles) is by downloading them, installing them and adding the .exe that runs the game manually into a playlist in launchbox. You cant do that automatically without a launcher platform that humblebundle is lacking.

Humble Bundle doesn't know if you have installed a game or not, but Humble Bundle knows if you have purchased a game or not. It would be nice to have all of them listed in LaunchBox, with the posibility to install them from LaunchBox. That way, Humble Bundle doesn't know if you have installed the game or not, but LaunchBox does.

Think the best we would be able to do with the how HumbleBundle operates and the data at hand, is to create an import wizard that adds the HumbleBundle download url as a field to a game (or import a game with no ApplicationPath set if you don’t already have said game in your library). At that point if you install on of those games you would need to manually point LB to it for it to know what application to launch.

Sounds good to me.

You could also import what Bundle a game was imported from and put that info in the custom field.
