A Playnite extension that automatically checks game system requirements against your PC configuration.

- Real-time Compatibility Check: Compares your PC configuration against game requirements

- Auto-tagging: Automatically tag games based on compatibility

System Checker integrates with Playnite's global search feature (accessible via Ctrl+F or the search bar), allowing you to quickly find games based on system requirements compatibility.
Important: Search parameters are filters that complement the name search. When you use parameters, the plugin first filters by game name, then applies the additional filters.
For example:
rpg -min→ Finds games with "rpg" in their name AND that meet minimum requirements-min→ Finds all games that meet minimum requirements (no name filter)
You can use the following parameters to filter games:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
-min |
Games that meet minimum requirements |
-rec |
Games that meet recommended requirements |
-any |
Games that meet either minimum or recommended requirements |
-np |
Games with no playtime (never played) |
-fav |
Filter by favorite games only |
-stores= |
Filter by specific stores (comma-separated) |
-status= |
Filter by completion status (comma-separated) |
Note: All search filters can be combined. The game name search is case-insensitive.
