Quoting: koderThe setting itself is actually a bit of Gotcha, because Linux builds work for all Beta and generated keys *except* actual purchase. That's how it slipped my attention - we have quite a few Linux players testing the game, but they all had keys, so this didn't affect them.Always happy to help :)
I'm really glad Liam pointed the solution out for me, I lost half of previous night trying to figure it out.

From what I remember when I last spoke to Valve about it, there's other documentation developers have that are more in depth. Edit: It's this page [External Link] that has some extra details, added a link to the article.
As for the tag, we have a Game Dev tag this was missing, it's now on.

Quoting: monnefYeah that video is quite old now and by the looks like what a developer showed me, possibly a little different now too. However, the basics of it seem the same, so I will add a link to the article - thanks!Quoting: liamdawe...we're waiting on confirmation about getting a shot from Steam's own developer section which likely is confidential.I have released a game half year ago on Steam and every page in administration has noted in footer that it is under NDA (or something similar).
That said, I did some "ducking" and found tutorial videos on steamworks are public, so maybe take a screenshot from those? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoNH-v6aU9Q [External Link]

Shepard62FR: I'm very aware of everything relating to SteamDB. Not entirely sure what you're getting at, we're waiting on confirmation about getting a shot from Steam's own developer section which likely is confidential.

Quoting: EikeWell, remember developers were only recently actually allowed to share any kind of sales info. So it doesn't surprise me developers are being cautious about sharing the Steam developer area. I have emailed Valve to confirm and will update with a shot if allowed.Quoting: liamdaweAs noted, Valve keep that from the public eye and as far as I and developers I spoke to are aware, you can't go around sharing shots of Steam's private configuration area.Hm. It's not like it contains anything secret, and it's there to help people bringing games on Steam. I can't see any reason for Valve to not want it.

Quoting: EikeThe article really needs a screenshot from the Steam internals. I gues someone will read this who can do it.As noted, Valve keep that from the public eye and as far as I and developers I spoke to are aware, you can't go around sharing shots of Steam's private configuration area.
