Im wondering if this is a common problem or not . I bought game guru and in order to download assets from the store I have to link it with my steam account but after linking it to my steam it still tells me that im not registered in my game guru engine . So is the tool just a scam to gain access to peoples steam accounts or what could be the problem ? Because the store says I am linked and that everything is fine but the engine wont let me download anything saying its not registered .

I am not seeing your steam link button.

Please press the green help button and let them know that you need your steam link to be reset.

They will help you in getting it working.

Thanks

Sometimes clearing your browser cache also helps this out.
Close and reopen the browser afterwards.
Log onto the store.
Stay logged in on your browser on the store page then try and open Game Guru again and press the download option from the files menu.

I have done the steam link thing where you have to give them your code and get it added twice already . It keeps saying I am linked up on the site afterwords but its not working on the game engine side .

Again I still dont see that the steam link has been achieved. You can see under my post a button that says steam profile.

I dont see that under yours.

I have tagged support again with this. Support is on BST at the moment and it is just off a week end. This usually takes an extra day to get to.

I can assure you that this is not a scam to get your steam account. This happens from time to time with a specific browser or some other small issue that can be sorted with the support team.

So lets start from the beginning again with your machine specifications and the browser you are using.

I can confirm that the user with the display name "bow2me26" has indeed been linked to a Steam account, so not sure why you cannot see the Steam Profile button in your forum posts. Remember that you need to launch GameGuru through the Steam client in order for the software to link with your Steam account, which is required when using the FILE > Download Store Items feature to download any assets you may have bought from the Asset Store. Also remember that you should buy assets from the store by again launching GameGuru through Steam, then clicking the Asset Store button (bottom left) and this will ensure the Steam account you are buying the assets under will be the same account you are using when you click the Download Store Items button in the FILE menu.

I've got word from our web guy that in order to see your Steam Profile button in the forum, you first need to log out of the TGC site, the store page and the forum completely. Then you can log back into the TGC site, and then go to the forums and you will see your Steam Profile button appear. This will show that your TGC account and your Steam account are linked.

Once you see that, you can then launch GameGuru through the Steam client, and click the FILE menu item called Download Store Items and any assets you bought through the Asset Store will start downloading into the purchased folder of GameGuru.

Also got this from Mr WebGuy: "It should be noted you must login to the web store after logging out for linking to work each site requires a separate login to link up correctly."

Hi,

I've also taken a look at this, and as Lee has stated you're actually showing a Steam ID on our system under an email address sent to me regarding this problem.

Is this still an issue or have you managed to link your accounts?

Downloaded files from the store will be in the purchased folder in the entity library to the left.
It should be the top most folder in there.

Hi bow2me26,

Do you think you could remove the negative review posted here: "http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198049324374/recommended/266310/" so future uses don't think we're just out to get their Steam IDs. Thanks! Also let us know if you need any help, that's what we're here for

I have been able to remove the flag from the Steam review. You should be able to edit it now

Ouch! That's one nasty review and totally untrue. Sometimes there can be little hiccups with websites and we all get frustrated sometimes. But I am 100% confident this is a perfectly reputable company. I've been buying their products for over a decade.

yea I got the product to work . There was definately something buggy going on with it noticing if your registered or not . Not sure what that was thats for the devs to figure out . All I knew at the time when I posted it was it asked for my steam info and wouldnt work from there . And by the time I was able to respond to edit the review and show the people that did later on try and help me that It was working I was already flagged and threatened with a ban and couldnt talk to the people that tried to help me . Kind of hard to clear up anything when someone else hinders the line of communications .
