Friday Night Gamers (Utah)

Looks like you have to leave the launcher up and NOT play the game to get Steam to record your time on it...

The reason appears to be because Steam launches the EXE that is the launcher app and not the TMU game EXE itself...

When you click the "Play" button in the TMU launcher, it closes itself and launches the TMU game in a new process.

Steam sees the launcher close and must assume you've stopped playing the game.

I tried to go back to Steam while TMU is running and "re-launch" it to see if it would time the game.

It reported to me that it was preparing to launch, but it didn't bring up another instance of the launcher... the launcher seemed to recognize the game was running, so I assume it killed itself again; thus stopping Steam from recording any time.

Bottom line... You have to open the "launcher" app from Steam and leave that open... THEN Steam will track your TMU time played... that appears to be the only way. *cackle!*

Oh well, it still gets the most of my playtime... Portal coming in a close second; with what little time I get to play anymore.

See you at the races!
