Publish on Steam
- Once your game has been added to steam, you should promptly receive instructions from them, detailing how to use the steam wrapper. After the steam wrapper has been included, you should then be allowed to use the Steam API commands with Visionaire. https://www.steampowered.com/steamworks/FAQ.php
Here are the steam API commands for Visionaire (accessible with Lua scripting):
Visionaire Version 4.0
- steam: The steam API update has disabled the DRM legacy support. We have updated the API. For Windows 7 users see: Change Data Execution Prevention settings
Android HowTo
Installing a game with the beta version
There's no export option from the editor yet, the game therefore searches in a fixed path for the config.ini.
- Download the Visionaire Player for Android
- Copy the file visplayer_android.apk to the platform directory in your Visionaire Studio installation
- Connect your Android device per usb
- Copy the visplayer_android.apk to your device using the explorer
- Create the folder visionaire in the root of your internal sdcard
- Copy config.ini plus all vis files in that directory
- Install the Apk per file manager on your device (you may have to enable untrusted sources)
- Run & good luck
The Application will continue running in the background if you home-out of it, to reload the file you need to close the application (see here http://www.wikihow.com/Close-Apps-on-Android). It will drain your battery if you don't close it, just so you know.
