![]() ![]() There's still more software that I can at least try to uninstall, but I have to do it one by one until I found one which that caused this. I have tried to uninstall any unneeded/bloated software that I don't use much for now, like RGB Fusion, Masterplus RGB, Inno3D Tune It Utility, AORUS app Center and some other likes Turbotop, Borderless Gaming.and nothing. I also uninstalled their softwares, still the same. I replaced my current keyboard and mouse Logitech G19 and Thermaltake Esports Nemesis, where both are using dedicated software for custom keys and apps that show overlay, with my normal cheap K&M that I kept as backup. But I'm not going to do it just for this game's overlay only, so not worth a hassle for I have disabled any non-essential startups as well.I unplugged any possible USB connection (Speaker, VR headset, USB hub). However, it's not really a true solution as I have no idea why only this game has problem showing its real Steam overlay.Īt this point, my only choice is possibly just re-install Win, which means I have to backup tons of thing, deactivated a couple of software and key registered to PC and such. I tested this now and the game at least show the overlay is working, which technically solved a bit of my original problem. The only thing I can confirmed that overlay is working in TS4, is by adding Origin to Non-Steam library, which I did previously before TS4 officially available on Steam. I have downloaded a couple of registry fix software, found and fixed other registry stuff that's not related even same problem. I tried looking at regedit (Registry Editor), does not find any suspicious thing related to TS4, like missing link or anything it's just the same as other EA games I have, except that they have Steam Overlay perfectly running. ![]() I tried running the game whether from EXE directly, shortcut and start menu without both Steam and Origin running in background (including process services), also with only Steam, only Origin, and completely disabled any autorun of these programs after starting the Windows (shut down and restart), did not solve as well.IMPORTANT – Your Steam status will not revert back to normal after quitting the game. You can test this by pressing Shift + Tab to open the overlay, or press F12 to capture a screenshot in game. (Game updates will also be ready for download from the launcher when they become available.)ĭo not be alarmed if you do not see the Steam overlay notification in the bottom right corner of Origin since the intent is to get the overlay to hook itself into the Origin game if successful. It will also update your Steam status as well as launch the Origin client. ![]() If you followed each step correctly, test the new shortcut by clicking the blue PLAY button in your GAMES library. Make sure that the Origin client is not running before launching the shortcut from Steam. Due to the way that EA designed their DRM, this particular method will trick Steam into attaching its overlay to Origin and any games being run in Origin. It is important to remember that this guide intends that you manually run your games from Origin and that the shortcut will only launch the Origin client itself. You can also customize game collections to identify non-Steam games easier, and include a background header image on your game shortcut page. Using game box art is ideal for the new Steam library layout. (Another guide on Steam explains how to remove the shortcut arrow.) Alternately, you can change the non-Steam game icon by right clicking and go to Manage > Set custom artwork to select a custom image. Optional – change the shortcut icon by clicking the CHOOSE ICON… button. (In this demonstration, I’ve used Sims 3 (via Origin) as the shortcut name.)
