Steam-Disabling Steam Overlay
Is there a way to do that? I'm working with RPGMaker and I want to use Shift-Tab to move between text boxes, but that opens the Steam Overlay. Which then gets a little annoying with how it interacts, and so on and so forth.
I've poked around Steam itself, and am not seeing it. Am I missing something obvious?I have a LOT of Homebrew!

A quick google gives me the following:

Open Steam.
Go to Steam > Settings.
Click on In-Game.
Untick Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game.
Click Ok.Last edited by tonberrian; 2022-05-23 at 04:03 PM.
The name is "tonberrian", even when it begins a sentence. It's magic, I ain't gotta 'splain why.

Counter-suggestion: a lot of games need the Steam overlay active to work right. You should just shift your Steam overlay keypress to something you're not using. I have mine set to Shift+~.

Re: Steam-Disabling Steam Overlay
Alternative solution: create a shortcut for RPG Maker so you don't even need Steam open to run it.
I know you can get RPG Maker through Steam, but it isn't a Steam-exclusive app and it shouldn't need to have Steam running to work. In fact, most games can be launched in off-line mode without Steam running at all (except if the game absolutely has to be online, obviously).Last edited by KillianHawkeye; 2022-05-26 at 12:25 PM.
