  • I get the infinite Steam logo when I hit Play on my Steam Deck. The main resource I used was this:

    sleepingpanda.games/blog/how-to-export-your-construct-3-game-for-steam-and-steamdeck

    And I also checked out this forum post:

    construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/how-do-i-8/run-game-steam-deck-crashes-176777

    I used:

    Construct 2 v279

    NW.js v0.30.4

    Greenworks v0.30.4

    Steamworks SDK v1.42

    I followed all the instructions I could find, doing what I could in C2 to best match C3 instructions using the latest versions of everything that are explicitly for C2 for maximum compatibility, but I couldn't perfectly follow the Greenworks nodes step due to the given link not giving the old version I need, 0.30.4, so my package just has the Greenworks nodes that are exported out of C2. I also may have had newer versions of NW.js and/or Greenworks in my C2, but I did install the older versions I needed for Steam. However, I don't know of a way of checking which version of each is actually being employed, so I don't know if I need to find some way to uninstall NW.js, and Greenworks, so I can ensure I only install the older one of each that I need. That's about all I can think of that may be concerns, I think I did everything else correctly everywhere, including in every corner of Steamworks. My game is pretty big, exactly 3GB, but I don't think there are any size limitations, and I correctly use SteamPipeGUI for uploading files over 2GB, the only difference being that method asks for the folder itself, such as 'win64', not a zip, which is what I do. Any help would be appreciated.

  • I think it will be impossible for you from C2. The best thing would be to move the project to C3.

    I think there are people who did successfully export C2 games in the past, so just trying to figure out the proper steps and details to achieving that. Unless it's impossible today due to something like Steam's end no longer working with older versions. If no one can help, I'm planning on just doing the $20 for 1 month of C3 so I can see if my project's export works on Steam with the latest versions of everything.
