Game Pictures

By default steamtinkerlaunch downloads automatically the main header.jpg picture from (configurable STASSURL) if not found and saves it under the SteamAppID name. Those pictures are for example used in the Game Launcher (via Game-Desktop-Files) and also in several menus like the Wait requester, the Editor Menu or the Main Menu.

If the game picture could not be found steamtinkerlaunch uses a built-in one as replacement by default. By enabling USECUSTOMFALLBACKPIC in the Global Menu it is possible to override the fallback picture with a custom one.

The filepath for the custom fallback picture is $CUSTOMFALLBACKPIC = $STLDLDIR/custom-fallback.png (so usually ~/.config/steamtinkerlaunch/downloads/custom-fallback.png)

When providing a github user name (preferably the own one :)) in the Global Menu steamtinkerlaunch downloads the avatar of that user as custom fallback picture, if $CUSTOMFALLBACKPIC is not found.

Downloading and showing Game Pictures and can be disabled in the Global Menu found in the Main Menu.
