can´t add steam games

Bruce McCloud

There is an update in the Beta versions of Launchbox. Go to your Tools > Options & look at the Update menu. Allow updates to beta versions. Then close & reopen Launchbox.

That will prompt a popup asking if you want to install a beta update.

Once its installed, import steam games like you normally do. You'll notice that the process is slightly different. Launchbox had an API problem due to Valve's terms & conditions prohibiting 3rd party sharing of the API. So Launchbox will give you a link to generate your own API instead. Once you have your API, save it somewhere convenient & remember to access it whenever you want to make future updates to your system.

Aside from that, it should work (for now... dun dun dun). :)
