For those who don't have Steam, or those who don't know what it is, here are a couple of screenshots:

That's great... But what does it DO????

it's a chat/ web browser, embedded in your game. or any program you can think of.

when pressing a hotkey (Shift + Tab), it opens the Steam overlay.

Handy for posting stuff on the forum whilst you're playing Ship Sim.

And the Ship Simulator group means you can chat to other players even whilst you aren't in MP.

It is almost essential....

Oh, and it doesn't hit FPS very badly at all...

Steam is a free program. But you must pay for games. You can add Non Steam Game( Which can be SS08) :P  :2thumbs:

(Direct Download to steam from Steam's WebSite: http://storefront.steampowered.com/download/SteamInstall.msi (http://storefront.steampowered.com/download/SteamInstall.msi) )

Thanks chaps.

Not my cup of tea, personally. But I can see how others would use it. Odd name 'steam'

it's very useful if you like to play games like Counter Strike and all those games.

GTA 4 IS a steam game, so It's really awesome. I think VSTEP should support Steam in SSE!! :2thumbs:
