* SmartSteamEmu v1.3.6 *
* by syahmixp *
***************************************************************

This is a steam client emulator which enables you to play steam


games without STEAM client and play lobby enabled-games or
online multiplayer games on LAN without any internet connection
or online.

This emulator initially intended only for Age of Empires II HD


to enable lobby features without depending on STEAM. Now the
emulator has been updated and can be used with other steam's
game.

Features:
- Run steam game without steam
- Enables play on LAN without internet connection
- Enables play online with or without 3rd party apps
- Emulates lobby, server browser
- Emulates CS:GO items/inventory
- Stats, Achievements and Save games
- Configurable DLC subscription
- Avatar support
- Plugins support
- Overlay support for DX9/11
- UGC/Steam Workshop partial support

Requirements:
- Microsoft(R) Visual C++ 2010 Runtime (x86)
- .NET Framework 4 (SSELauncher only)
- Steam games

How to use:
- Extract all files to game directory or any directory.
- Open SmartSteamEmu.ini and edit as neccessary.
- Launch SmartSteamLauncher.exe and not the game executable.
- To use different configuration file, add configuration file path
to launcher parameter.
- Put your plugins into SmartSteamEmu\Plugins folder. SmartSteamEmu
will automatically load the dll files.

Note:
If your games use cracked version that replace steam_api.dll,
make sure you restore the original steam_api.dll file first.

Some games may require pre-cracked file to run the games, but be
sure steam_api.dll is the original.

Some games such as tomb raider that can host private match
require invite friends function to invite others to join their
private match. Since this emulator didn't have any invite friend
implemented, to JOIN the server press SHIFT+TAB simultaneously.

Beginning with version 1.3.5, online mode is introduced (by SSEOverlay


plugins). It will connect to several server (torrent tracker) and
STUN server. If you do not wish to connect to these server, it can
be disabled completely via overlay settings or modifying its setting
file.

Plugin Development:
Plugin is simply a dll file to extend or change the emulator or game
behaviour. The dll will be loaded by SmartSteamEmu via LoadLibrary().
Additionally the plugin can have SmartInit() and SmartShutdown()
exported function. To get better understanding, download the PDK.

PDK can be downloaded here: http://cs.rin.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=65200
