Does the steam overlay work for anyone? it doesnt seem to work for me :/

[Airwolf]

It works as far as I know. You just can't see it in the launcher.

It worked for me, but I haven't used Steam and GW2 in a while.

GW2 is not made to work with, and does not hold any support over Steam Overlay, i do believe your on your own.

[stillalive123]

Anything on this? seems it still doesnt work, steam says im in guild wars, but overlay just wont work. im on Windows 7 64 bit if it matters..

[Dawntracker]

Also win 7 64x here, works like a charm.

[jasonorme666]

Yep, win 7 64bit, and alls fine.

Start Steam, click on "Games" at very top
Select "Add a non-steam game to my library"
Browse to Gw2.exe, click "open", click "add selected program"
Now go to your library tab and start GW2 through the shortcut there.

Just did this and it works fine, shift+tab is the default overlay key, f12 is the default steam screenshot key, though this clashes with the logout key of gw2 so might want to change one or the other.
