How about this?

SELECT
        `first_table`.`names`
        , `first_table`.`version`
        , (SELECT
                   COUNT(`other_table`.`names`)
           FROM `other_table`
           WHERE `other_table`.`this_id` = `first_table`.`id`) AS 'count'
FROM `first_table`
WHERE `first_table`.`progress` > 0;


Granted, you have not provided structure or names of the tables so this is
just my interpretation, but maybe something like this could give you a
starting point?
