Before that patch i can see that for example I am playing Mount and blade :Warband. Now when i play the game i can only see i am online (shows no game icon or anything)

Now when i open crpg launcher in steam it doesn't do the game overlay anymore. (100% the option is on for game overlay).

i want it back plz help

That's because cRPG aint fully ported to the newest version of warband yet and technical stuff happens.

as long as you arent playing DTV or rageball, just launch WARBAND from steam instead of using CRPG launcher.

You'll get error messages starting up but just keep clicking.  Doing stuff like msg to admin will also give u error msgs but it still goes thru

I just added the crpg launcher as a non steam game and called it "Mount & Blade: Warband cRPG". That seems to work.

Hmm maybe try naming it exactly the same as the regular steam warband? Does that work?

dunno what you want then i dont understand you. you need to put your game into steam folder. if it is not in steam folder it will not show that you are in game.

The thing is that Steam has its own game files, different from the ones you get with the installer from Taleworlds, I assume. So, unless you launch the executable file that Steam downloaded, the Steam game won't be launched.

Yah, something changed recently and 'broke' steam cRPG detection. It used to detect warband being launched when you played cRPG. Now it doesn't anymore.

As a temporary work around i use the 'add as a non-steam game' trick i mentioned earlier, but it doesn't add any more 'time played' and achievements and such for warband on your steam profile. However, it does show i'm playing cRPG on my friends list when i do, so that at least is nice.

Dunno how to fix that. Open to any suggestions. Anyone got an idea?
