Gratitude - Gifted Games Reminder

Gratitude is a Millennium plugin for your Steam Library that adds a helpful indicator to games you have been gifted.

Screenshots

The plugin integrates seamlessly with the existing Steam game header.

Big Picture Mode

Gratitude also works in Big Picture mode, providing the same gift information when browsing your library on the big screen.

Full Big Picture mode support for couch gaming.

Gift Labeling

Ever forgotten who gave you a game?

Click the gift icon on any gifted game to open a details panel where you can record the gifter and add a personal note.
	The gifter field uses smart autocomplete against your Steam friends list, so you can find the right person without typing their full name.
Once saved, the gifter's name shows up right in the tooltip so you never forget again!

🛠 Installation

Important

Millennium is required. This plugin will only work if you have the Millennium framework installed. If you haven't, visit steambrew.app first.

Either:

1. Install from the Gratitude plugin page:
   • Open Gratitude on steambrew.app.
   • Use the install flow there. This is the recommended way to install the plugin.

Or:

1. Manual install fallback:
   • Click the Releases section on the right side of this repository.
   • Under the latest version, look for the Assets dropdown.
   • Download the file named gratitude-for-millenium-<version>.zip.
2. Locate Plugins Directory:
   • Go to your Steam installation folder (often C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\plugins).
   • Note: This folder is only created after Millennium has been installed and run for the first time.
3. Extract:
   • Extract the contents of the ZIP file into a new folder within that plugins directory.
4. Restart Steam (if it was open):
   • Once Steam restarts, Millennium will load the plugin but it still needs to be enabled.
5. Enable the Plugin:
   • Go to Steam → Millennium → Plugins in the menu bar.
   • Find Gratitude in the list and toggle it on.
   • "Save Changes"

FAQ

Q: Is Millennium allowed by Valve? (Will I get banned?)
A: Using Millennium to customize your client is safe. As noted on the Official Valve Software Wiki:

"As the official skin support (for VGUI) has been removed... it was unofficially replaced by Millennium for Steam... an open source patcher that allows skins/themes after April 27th 2023."

Q: Does this work in Big Picture mode?
A: Yes! Gratitude fully supports both the standard Steam library and Big Picture mode.

Q: Why isn't the gift display loading or isn't showing for a game I was just gifted?
A: Try visiting the Steam Store in your client, then go back: This plugin stores your game license data but can only do so when you visit one of Steam's non-library pages.

Q: Can it show who gifted me the game?
A: Yes, with a little help from you! Steam doesn't store sender information in a way the client can retrieve, but you can label it yourself. Click the Gifted tooltip on any gifted game in your Library to open the details panel, where you can select the gifter from your Steam friends list and add a personal note. Once saved, the gifter's name will appear in the tooltip.

Acknowledgments

A special thanks to HLTB for Millennium for executing another plugin which places game-specific tooltips: it made a great study/starting out point, especially for the observer and injection logic.
