[Solved?] No Steam achievements on 64-bit Linux

Hi, I play on Linux and launch it from Steam. I've slain the Queen and the Knight on medium level, no crutches. I've disovered both Gauntlet levels, now I'm in the library floor. I have lots of money etc.

And yet, I have absolutely no Steam awards.

Is this normal?

I bought it on the official page and then used the Steam key to get it here, can that be the reason?

There is no 64-bit version of the steam sdk for linux, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/2722
This means that we can only use steam features if you run it as 32 bit.

Right, that's an x86-64 system.

So I need to install 32-bit mono and manually run with that?

Will it detect Steam running in the background, or should I edit RunHammerwatch script and start from Steam for it to work?

You can either copy the steam_appid.txt from the editor folder and put in the game folder to make it detect steam running, or you can edit the script. A quick way of seeing that it works is that if you delete the config.xml it shouldn't ask for a username since it takes what you are using in Steam.

Thanks, I'll be experimenting with this in the evening.

I've changed thread title so others notice it easier.

Are there any news here? I really want to play this game, but not with broken achievements. It is also not possible (at least with the standard repositories) to install mono x86 on Linux Mint 15 / Ubuntu 13. To make things worse I tried to copy the steam_appid.txt while using mono x64 and also tried to run it under wine and now I have a totally wrong progress in achievements like 'Rich'.

Steam update news: "Linux: added support for 64-bit games to the Steam Linux Runtime"

Does this mean 64bit Linux users will get achievements as soon as you the steam_appid.txt is in the folder?

The Steamworks SDK appears to support 64-Bit Linux now. Will there be an update?

11/07/13
The Steamworks SDK has been updated with new APIs for Family Sharing, 64-Bit Linux binaries and a new UGC interface to query Workshop items.

I picked this up a week or two ago and finally got it running on Arch a couple days ago. I put about 4 hours into it so far and love it - but just noticed now that there's no Achievements popping.

Just chiming in here in hopes for an update from Crackshell, now that it should be do-able.

It would be much appreciated if you could either ship a 32-bit Mono runtime (the Ironclad Tactics dev does that) or 64-bit Steam libs with the game. The current situation is kind of dissatisfying for us 64-bit users...
