Steam Achievement Manager 5.2

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

This fixes the crash issues introduced with a recent Steam update, in addition to:

  • API improvements, no longer depends on steam_api.dll.
  • Filters in game picker.
  • Reset achievement and/or stat support.
  • Other stuff I can’t remember now.

There may be an intermittent issue with the Steam UI freezing while / after running SAM (Picker or Game), if that happens, restarting Steam should fix it. Feel free to report issues in comments.

You can download the new version of Steam Achievement Manager on its page.

New games listed as of 5.2 (a few of these are old and I just missed before):

  • Big Brain Wolf
  • Drug Wars (shitty game previously known as Merchants of Brooklyn, har)
  • Mare Nostrum
  • Rogue Warrior
  • Saw
  • Serious Sam HD: The First Encounter
  • Star Trek: D-A-C
  • Zero Gear (for the beta version…) Zero Gear Demo
  • Zombie Driver

This fixes the crash issues introduced with a recent Steam update.

Ghostbusters

Friday, June 19th, 2009

Wrote some code to unpack POD files, which can be found on my SVNA binary of the Unpack tool from SVN rev5 is available.

I havn’t written any code for repacking yet, and I havn’t tested if the game reads unpacked files at all yet. If you encounter any problems feel free to comment this post.

Steam Achievement Manager 5.0

Monday, May 18th, 2009

Due to lots of people bugging me about it, I’ve added support for editing statistic values to Steam Achievement Manager.

Now in version 5.0!

You can download the new version of Steam Achievement Manager on its page.

Also to address some concerns about people asking about Left 4 Dead achievements. They’re not “persisting” in-game when you unlock them in Steam Achievement Manager because there are statistic values tied to them, and the game verifies these when it lists its achievements. It has nothing to do with SteamCloud (that’s not its purpose!).

New games listed as of 5.0 (I added these before 5.0 but had not posted an update):

  • Killing Floor
  • Plants vs. Zombies
  • Zeno Clash

Mirror’s Edge Music

Friday, January 16th, 2009

Mirror’s Edge PC port came out a few days ago, I got my copy today. I updated my Unreal3 package reading code that I wrote for Mass Effect to be compatible with Mirror’s Edge archives.

I wrote some code to dump information about all music tracks and made a tool with this information so anyone who has a copy of the PC port can extract the music with ease.

The music files are all in Ogg format.

Note that due to how Unreal packages are generated by the Unreal editor, there are probably lots of dupes of tracks.
