I want to put the first RE there, but there's just no way to type it without all of the other games appearing and filling up the entire list. How tf do I select it lmaoooo

Thats strange, for me it shows up as the first result even though i own all the others too:

You can try and remove the demo of Resident Evil 2 from your license page:
https://store.steampowered.com/account/licenses/

Should have a "Remove" button next to it, that should give you one more result on your showcase search.

Thanks for the idea but my guess is it'll be filled with something else lol I own every single RE game on steam. Also ty for the screenshot; very strange indeed lmao

Just noticed that it left out "Resident Evil 5" for my results even though i own that too.
So i guess if there are too many results with the same name it randomly removes one of them.
And in your unfortunate case it was the one you wanted.

So, I tried this on my browser to see if I could do it through page inspection. I found the exact javascript function that does it, though I don't know how to fill in the arguments.

 function SetShowcaseGame( elSlot, eShowcase, purchaseid, level, iSlot, game )
{
	SetShowcaseConfig(
		eShowcase, purchaseid, iSlot, {appid: game.appid }
	).done( function() {
			$J(elSlot).find('img').attr( 'src', game.logo );
			$J(elSlot).find('a').attr( 'href', 'https://steamcommunity.com/app/' + game.appid);
			$J(elSlot).find('.favorite_game_name').text( game.name );
			$J(elSlot).removeClass( 'openslot' );
	}).fail( function() {
			ShowAlertDialog( 'Select Featured Game', 'There was an error saving the featured game configuration.  Please try again later.' );
	});
} 

So far my guesses are: elSlot should be 2 (the game showcase is on the 3rd slot), purchaseid I guess is something I could find looking around my account purchase history, iSlot should be 1 (i want the game on the second position) and that's it.

eShowcase might also want an int, which would be the one that references the game collector showcase, though I have no idea which number that should be, "level" might have to do with the showcase's upgrades OR my profile's (the former would make more sense), and game I just have no idea; first thing I thought was an int containing the app's id (304240), but it expects an object, because it then checks for it's "appid" property with point notation.

Any 300iqers?

Maybe try this:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1809871691

I used that in the past to display games i played through "Family Share" but could not display since i dont "own" them.

LMAO ty for this, it was really useful. I SOMEHOW did it, just threw a bunch of function callbacks testing different arguments, they all either did nothing or thew errors, but when I saved and checked it the game was there lol.

SetShowcaseGame( 2, 2, '(transaction ID for my purchase)', 1, 1, {appid: 304240} )
SetShowcaseConfig( 2, 0, 1, {appid: 304240} )

Some of those worked I guess :)

some games have "Steam is learning about this game" status

"This game is not currently eligible to appear in certain showcases on your Steam Profile, and does not contribute to global Achievement or game collector counts."

♥♥♥♥ I have the same issue with Resident Evil not showing up because I have all the other RE stuff on steam and I wanted to reconfig my featured game list and now I can't because if I remove RE from it I won't be able to select it anymore urgh.

And not sure to figure out how the tutorial works tbh ^^"

Man thats such an oversight for something they are putting at the forefront a lot lately with the points shop and etc...
