Overlay since I want to take screenies

[Thokhmah]

Anyone managed to get the overlay working? I tried to manually add the folder 760\remote\203510\screenshots\thumbnails but still can't find my screenshots on steam.
Thanks for reading.

For me it doesn't save them there but:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fortune Summoners\user
Check there

I am also having issues with the overlay working. Just started playing today and I went to Shift+Tab to continue my conversations and nothing pops up at all.. If I wanted to Alt+Tab out every time I want to talk I'd buy games elsewhere... I buy them on steam soley for the ability to chat while in game and it not working is rather annoying..

I'm not having any problem using DXGL and Big Picture.

I think the lack of Steam overlay for some people is a known issue. I didn't get the overlay either, too. I don't know when it'll get solved though.

If you want more responsiveness you might want to bug Carpe Fulgur on their forums. Though it might also involve getting the dev himself (Lizsoft) to bugfix this.

I just started playing (I downloaded it a long time ago but never got around to playing it until today)... it seems for me every time I try to go to the overlay it just closes the game instead... and steam tends to act very weird afterwards... like no images in the steam store or community for example... or maybe that's my internet connection.

Just did the verify thing... now it seems it just closes the game... don't know if the issue with the store was due to the game or not.

The Steam overlay only works in DirectX 8.1 and up, it will not work in DirectDraw games.

Wait, so why does it work for some people and for some not then?

It doesn't actually work for anyone, they are doing a workaround which you would have known if you looked at the guide section for this game: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=156036493
that guide tells you how to upload screenshots of the game to Steam Cloud.

Now I see... thanks for linking the guide.

Oh, and this game is a directdraw game? How do you know that? And what other games are directdraw on steam?

The game was just never made to support DirectX to begin with, there are no DirectX DLL files in the install folder and it has DDraw.dll in the install folder and DirectDraw isn't even supported or shipped with Windows 8 and up anymore.

To get the game to run at higher resolutions look at this guide (the previous guide I linked above isn't even necessary if you follow this guide):
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1573821562
I recommend the Alternative Method and for me it isn't slower then the author said and the recommended method never worked for me.

About the question on what other games use DirectDraw, don't ask me.

Oh I see, thanks. So then this game would run perfectly on windows 7 and older but on windows 8 and newer it will lag uncomfortably?
