MaxCahill Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 Dear Friends, I am using your node-steam-user in my app (^4.15.4) which works perfect for me. What I am struggling with is integrating package Dota2 (https://www.npmjs.com/package/dota2) into my application. Since Dota2 package requires an instance of steam-client (https://www.npmjs.com/package/steam-client) to work, I did not want to rewrite my application to use this steam integration. So I have googled for a while and I have figure out few facts, that I would like to ensure about: 1. node-steam-user is not using steam-client since v4.0 2. node-steam-user does not expose anything like "steam-client" 3. There is no way how to use together steam-client and node-steam-user 4. node-steam-user does communicate with Steam game coordinator (as described in https://github.com/DoctorMcKay/node-steam-user/wiki/Game-Coordinator), which is steam-client NOT used for I would highly appreciate any response. With kind regards, Max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. McKay Posted February 6, 2021 Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 That's all correct. Anything that depends on a steam-client interface is not going to work with steam-user v4 or later. You could either use steam-user v3 or you could possibly write a kludge that would translate steam-user into a steam-client-like interface which dota2 could work with.

MaxCahill Posted February 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 (edited) Dear Dr. McKay, Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately using v3 is not an option since I would have to rewrite whole application. Maybe two more ideas: 1. Is there a possibility how to pass steam-client to node-steam-user (so that I can use both) ? // I believe there is not 2. Is it possible to use both at the time? node-steam-user and steam-client (with single steam account) ? Best regards, Max.

Dr. McKay Posted February 7, 2021 Report Share Posted February 7, 2021 No, that's not possible Yes, that's possible as long as you are only in-game on one connection at a time. You will need to change the logonID on one or both instances or else one will get kicked off with the error LoggedInElsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
