Zangato Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 So its my first time using Vortex. I install the mod i want it all works great but steam overlay is gone. I check in my steam game library and it says enabled, but when i launch the game i dont have it. Cant take screen shots nor use shift+tab to chat. Anyone knows who to fix it?
AugustaCalidia Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Exit Vortex and start your game. Does the overlay now appear?
Zangato Posted March 4, 2019 Author Posted March 4, 2019 OMG yes it works, i though i had to start it from Vortex. Thx allot man. :laugh:
AugustaCalidia Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 This shows that your problem is not the Steam overlay. However, you still have a problem. If you've set up your Vortex tools correctly, the Steam overlay should appear even when launching the game through Vortex. (I manage all of my Steam games through Vortex, and the overlay appears in everyone of them when I launch with Vortex.) You may not have configured your Vortex launch tools correctly. Make sure that you've selected the correct target and folder for your tools.
pesta38 Posted May 12, 2019 Posted May 12, 2019 I got it working by adding vortex as a non-steam game, launched vortex from steam and then launched my game from vortex. Although for my friends it will say I'm playing vortex.

I have Steam open, and I have Vortex open, but I don't run Vortex through steam.I just press the Play Icon in the Dashboard and my game starts up, along with the steam overlay

I had my own work-around where I would rename SKSE to Skyrim Launcher, thankfully that is no longer needed. Until OP provides more information about what game he is trying to play, everyone is just shooting the dark.
