Hey guys, not necessarily a steam question, but I need some input.
I am going to create a sequel to Salsas Indie game recommendation thread. Before anyone asks, yes he is fine with it. Anyway, I am considering integrating the recommendations other Gaffers made in that thread into my posts for the new thread. Either together with the Indie games I found or as a separate "recommended by other gaffers in the old thread"-post. Considering how many of the posters were still posting in the thread, I doubt even interested posters were keeping up with other Gaffers recommendations (I am interested, but I still havent kept up with it.), which is why I think the recommended games, aside from Salsas OT, have been barely looked at. Any thoughts? Integrating them (all games divided by genre)? Extra posts for my new list and the ones already recommended before in the first thread (Meaning we'd have 2 posts with genre listings?)? I am sort of leaning towards compiling the Gaffer recommendations together with my list. Would anyone be bothered by that? Since its already been posted and "duplicate" content so to say. |

Well its not like they need to READ much in this case. I assume most people skip through and stop at games that have appealing screenshots, then read the description and decide whether to give it a try or not. |

Update: Restarting Steam didn't fix it, rebooting the computer didn't fix it, and now apparently that Live update screwed up my Windows update, so I'm downloading some 16 old patches for Microsoft stuff that I presumably got 6 months ago.
The Microsoft internet test says everything works for me except UPNP. I don't have a local profile because I had played the game before on a different partition. I am now in the process of uninstalling GFWL and the GFWL redistributable, and I'm going to try to manually download the latest one(s) after that. Any other ideas to get GFWL account login working? Even the internet seems to basically be useless about the particular ID not found error. Side note, I had to restart Steam after installing the game for the first time since I got an error 80 popup. |

Fantastic. Apparently you can't log into the GFWL client if your password contains a ' character. I seem to have verified this by changing to another, longer password that contains DIFFERENT special characters, yet that one works and changing back to the original one does not.
What's especially great about this is that I USED THIS SAME ACCOUNT like two years ago for SFIV on Steam and the chances that I changed my password during that time are probably pretty low. And you can also login and change your password just fine with the live.xbox.com site...just not the Marketplace client or GFWL overlay ingame because of that particular character, which you apparently aren't warned about. My profile is now downloaded and I'm logged into SFIV, what a hassle. It says no saved data found but I suppose that's because my save file was on a different partition and there's no cloud saving (that's not a big deal to me) or something. |

Games for Windows saves are always stored on the USER folder on Windows, but since you're changing passwords and probably re-created a profile on the machine, it's under another folder (because each time you "Retrieve a profile" on windows, it creates a new key and all the saves are associated with that key). It's kinda stupid, but easily fixable. For Street Fighter IV, it doesn't matter. Good to know all is well. |

will learn eventually

Yet another Machinarium doubt.
#11628
Sorry to importunate, the official thread does not have any activity going on so i'm forced to ask here.
The save files dissappear. I did research, the problem can be solved by adjusting some settings in the flashplayer. The other issue is with the web browser. What is exactly the web browser option that affects the game? I have the browse set to wipeout history, cache and cookies after shutdown. I lost 4 game hours yesterday, it's king of annoying having to sacrifice web security to play machinarium XD |

Code:
%appdata%\Macromedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\ With BoI, there are two redundant saves: one is a Flash-cookie, the other is a txt file.

Also how is that mediocre? It for one doesn't include the daily deals, secondly all the packs probably aren't up yet as they will be added until the sale goes live, and third, most of the main publishers are represented with packs already. Thanks for the credit :)
A few more packs have been added since they posted their lists as well, I'll post the updated list soon, just got to add the new entries.

None of the prices we can really know until the sale goes live, although stuff like the SR3 pack and Dawn of War pack seem reasonably priced. |
