Issues, Workarounds & Localization

Hi,

Ever since Eve got the new launcher I've been having a slight issue with the way the client handles Steam's overlay. My guess is that the overlay hooks into the launcher rather than waiting for Eve to start up. This leads to an annoying scenario where the overlay does not function within the game and on top of that Steam's audio notifications for messages are suppressed while Eve is open. I'm aware this is likely an issue on Valve's end regarding where the overlay should hook into the DirectX functions within Eve, but some attention here might allow CCP devs to garner some attention from Valve for what I imagine would be an easy fix. This would also allow Valve to update the title on the games list to the correct expansion, too . If there is a workaround to this, perhaps loading the Eve executable directly through steam rather than using the launcher, that works too. I would just like to see a fix as I hate going on a fleet op or something and then return an hour or two later to notice I've accumulated 20 unread messages.

Thanks,

Ty Fox


EDIT: I really should learn to use the search feature. I found the answer I was looking for, sorry for making a useless thread . Perhaps you guys at CCP can modify the launcher to work with the overlay? I've seen it done with other launcher-based games
