When I try to build it, it just skips the steps.
I’m using the 2022 version of Visual Studio, while the one used in the course video is 2017, so I assume that this is a factor?
The best version of steamworks to build is 1. 53a as other versions have issues. I would recommend just watching the video as steamworks is now integrated into the engine. Earlier when then the course was first released, you had to build it manually to use Steam but no more.
It is interesting to see it working but really no longer necessary
