Not sure if this has been posted about before, I know it has on Steams actual forums but that thread is buried and dead.
The issue: When I launch the game through Steam I see a small Steam boxing saying "first time installation 1/1" then the rectangular box telling me that the launcher is launching. Now during this time Steam does actually show me as being in game, and "tracks" the playtime. However about a second before the launcher actually pops up that goes away. Steam no longer is tracking or showing anything. In fact Steam acts like I closed it out even though it is still running. I put in my sign in info, click play, and I can play fine, however Steam does not show me as being in game.
The game itself runs just fine for me, and I can play it normally. It's just Steam isn't tracking anything, like the Steam bootstrapper or whatever it's called is getting "unhooked" from the launcher and the game.
Yes my game is a Steam version.
The only other issue I've had is that I can't run the game in fullscreen because my mouse cursor will disappear so I have to run it in windowed borderless. However I could care less about that since I want to run it in borderless, but the steam tracking thing is an irritating annoyance that I have noticed everyday playing. Not to mention by buddy pointing it out how he has "more" playtime despite being half as far, just reminds more that it isn't tracking right.
Any fixes or suggestions would greatly appreciated.
Thanks
