Can't disable Steam

[Ywa]

Hi,

 

In my 3.2 project with both C++ and Lua I can't disable the use of Steam. Thus everytime it says I'm playing 'Spacewar'. Very annoying for my friends to see me constantly go in and go out that game. Is there a way to disable it? I did comment the SteamWorks initialization. Which doesn't seem to make a difference (thus this makes it a bug).

Delete the steamid.txt file might help.

I'll give it a shot. Although I would still like to see Steam integration being fully optional.

Yes, just delete that file and don't initialize Steam.

Yet I still have to package the steam DLL and it still tries to initialize it. Isn't it possible in future updates to make Steam really optional?

 

Thanks in advance.

It would double the number of builds I have to do every time I update Leadwerks, and it doesn't cause any problems, so I prefer to leave it as is.

But why is that optional initialization command there then? What does it do?
