Steam Game Interface?

[lolage]

Hi, in steam it allows you to add non-steam games in there. So i did this and was quite pleased i can access all my games through the steam interface.

BUT i log in today to find they are no longer there? Why?

I never knew you could do this with Steam. If Steam loaded faster I'd probably add all of my games onto the list. Sorry this does not help.

anybody else..?

There was an update out yesterday that slightly changed the look of the games interface, and I suspect this has removed all of your non-steam games. What made you add them all to steam?

mine randomly reset itself once :s. Added some back and it hasn't happened again though. Was after an update I think it happened for me.

edit: by adding them to steam you can use the steam overlay with them gamer_boy

By adding a game to steam in this way, can it still be accessed when steam is not running?

Yes - all you do is add a shortcut to the exe file which runs from steam.

you can still use the original shortcut as normal

Its buggy, plain and simple.

Make sure you exit before you go playing after remaking your list, otherwise a crash might save it. But even so it might just dissapear. You can check the steam forums, im sure there is a file you can backup and restore if things go missing again.
