Project status

  • Since Valve introduced their new SteamPlay feature that allows linux users to
    run windows games directly from Steam, I have stopped the active developement of
    the project. SteamPlay does almost the same thing that SteamForwarder but better,
    because Valve has all the source code of their product and understanding how the
    Steam works. Moreover, Valve provides their own build of WINE, called Proton
    which includes some patches for better gaming experience (and the steamclient
    implementation as well). So it probably will be last release of SteamForwarder
    so far.

Installation script

  • win32 arch no longer being forced while applying registry file for the game
    installation
