The HLTB API is not working at this moment.


Depressurizer uses the following URL but this returns in an error:

Cause of it not working is the traffic limitation of Steam. Thus scraping 2000+ at once can (and most likely will) result in failed scraping for everything beyond the first 2000 apps. I would suggest scraping 1000 at a time with a 30-60 min delay between each "scraping session'.

Developer of Depressurizer/Depressurizer here. What language are you using to scrape? Have you tried selecting one or more apps through the Database Editor and then scraping?

And you are not able to change the language by selecting an other languague in the dropdown list?

I'm giving 3.0.0 a shot and the default language isn't English and I don't see an obvious way to change it.

EDIT: I got past the initial options pop up and found the language options in the usual place.

EDIT 2: Though I've selected English, there is a still a lot of Dutch getting through. It's usable but someone less familiar with the program might really struggle.

ps many thanks for your efforts.

Default language is English. Maybe you had an old config that uses the old index of the interface language.

As for the Dutch, I'm not aware. Could you try a clean install (clearing the appdata folder of Depressurizer).

Try it again with version 3.0.0

Don't praise me, maybe a little, but praise Rallian for this great application and Theo for having continued developing it for a long time. I'm just trying to keep it alive and usable.
