I want to publish my game on Steam.
The bug that causes keyboard input to be stolen makes it impossible to use the Steam overlay. :(

aaaaand... it simply works! Yay!!! Just had to add that to my previous code: type steam_stats_type as any ptr dim shared steam_stats as steam_stats_type steam_stats=SteamUserStats() 'steam_api version 1.35a SteamAPI_ISteamUserStats_SetAchievement(steam_stats, "TEST") 'name of your achievem...

It seems the functionality have been reimplemented in a way that it only works on C++ now. Well, older versions of the library should still work, because old games still ship with it. The game I'm publishing on steam is like 7 years old, so nothing new around here. :) If I can get it to do everythin...

Version 1.35a seems to have everything I need.
Previous versions don't have "SteamAPI_ISteamUserStats_SetAchievement"

I found a copy of libsteam_api.so on my system from 2013 (shipped with Half Life) and interestingly it contains a SteamUserStats function, while a 2019 copy doesn't. (Note that the Python code you're referencing is from 2015). In fact the list of functions exported in the 2013 API looks very differ...

Hey dodicat, how do you compile that? Don't you need a "steam_api.a"?

So, perhaps your best bet is to go with the C wrappers approach. When/if I have a little spare time, I'll do some tests and report (since this is also useful to me as well). Good luck! ;) Hey, I have the basic stuff already. Tested and working. screen 14 #define steam_appid 480 ' replace for your a...

Look how the symbols look like using "nm"? Maybe pyhton mangles them. This is what I get from nm: https://jpst.it/1I1wC Doesn't look like it's there, at least, not with that name. The Steam documentation says it's a "global accessor function", whatever this is. https://partner.s...

Hi Landeel, before some Python afficionado comes to rescue. It seems to me that this is here a kind of type alias. Like "type ... as". Or maybe it works like "using *namespace*".... Because I don't see why a variable would be named so exactly as what seems to be its type at 1st ...

I found this website https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/api/ISteamUserStats and decided: To complex for me. Yeah, that's where I went first. Then stopped when trying to replicate the classes. It seems this method would require a wrapper library written in C++. But if someone could make this work di...

Greetings, I'm trying to implement Steam Achievements in my game without any lib but steamapi itself. I have found this code in Python that supposedly does what I need: https://shiz.me/junk/renpy/steam.py # Simple Ren'Py Steam achievement integration. # (C) 2013-2015 Shiz, badly coded and under no w...

Hi,
An enhanced port of YAGAC for Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, re-branded "Kromasphere", is live on Kickstarter:
