- Steam Family Sharing is a wonderful feature that allows family members and friends to borrow each others libraries of games when they aren’t in use. Considering we have six Steam accounts in our family, buying six copies of each game just isn’t practical. That’s where Steam Family Sharing comes in.
- DLC Nier replicant on steam family sharing. Anyone else having trouble with this? It seems the dlc keeps getting deleted when I swap to the other account, when swapped back it needs redownloading. On the shared account the DLC tab is missing, even though this does work for nier automata and other games.
- STEAM projects for kids are at the core of this blog. And it’s not because STEAM is the latest educational trend, but because I personally believe in the power of cross-disciplinary learning. If you are new to the idea of STEAM the acronym stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math, and started as simply STEM, without the A.
Steam Family Play
Hi, I'm having an issue trying to play a game (Far Cry Primal) that my brother bought. We both have Steam accounts that are linked through Steam Family Sharing, which means that we can access each others' Steam libraries, and make separate save files on each others' games.
He installed Uplay and made an account to play the game, and it works fine. But when I login to my own Steam account, and my own Uplay account, Uplay says there is trouble authenticating ownership of the product.
I then tried logging in on my Steam account, and then his Uplay account, and still no luck, same error message. Finally, he just let me use both his Steam and his Uplay and told me to just make a new game separate from his -- but this turned out not to be an option, it would overwrite his progress.
He really wants me to try it, and I do too! Is there such a thing as allowing both of us to play the same copy of a game, on the same computer, but with separate Steam and Uplay accounts, and separate save files?
