Godot Steam

Steam API for the Godot game engine. For the Windows, Linux, and Mac platforms.

How to use

• Download Steamworks SDK; this requires a Steam developer account.

• Download Godot source; preferably 2.0.3 or higher.

• Copy SDK files:

  sdk/public
  sdk/redistributable_bin
  

  To

  godotsteam/sdk
  

  The directory contents should look like this:

  godotsteam/sdk/public/*
  godotsteam/sdk/redistributable_bin/*
  godotsteam/SCsub
  godotsteam/config.py
  godotsteam/godotsteam.cpp
  godotsteam/godotsteam.h
  godotsteam/register_types.cpp
  godotsteam/register_types.h
  

• Move the "godotsteam" directory inside the "modules" directory on the Godot source. Recompile for your platform.

  For Linux, if not using Godot 2.0.3 or higher, you must add openssl=no when compile because it has problem with libcrypto (class StreamPeerSSL can't use).

  For Windows, it's highly advised to use Visual Studio. With some extra steps MinGW will work, but most likely with limited functionality.

  For Mac, there shouldn't be anything extra to do outside of the Godot directions on compiliation.

• Copy shared library (steam_api) from /sdk/redistributable_bin/ folders to Godot binary location, should look like this (depending on target OS):

  Linux 32/64-Bit

  ./libsteam_api.so
  ./godot_binary
  

  Mac 32/64-Bit

  ./libsteam_api.dylib
  ./godot_binary
  

  Windows 32-Bit

  ./steam_api.dll
  ./godot_binary.exe
  

  Windows 64-Bit

  ./steam_api64.dll
  ./godot_binary.exe
  

• Game must ship with exe, Steam API DLL, SO, or DyLIB, and steam_appid.txt to function. Lack of Steam API DLL, SO, DyLIB (for respective OS), or steam_appid.txt will cause it to fail.

To-Do

• Add additional functionality, ideally all of the Steamworks API.
• Rewrite the examples section to fit this new layout.
