Game won't start on Windows 10 Surface Book #22

Just got a fancy new laptop and have spent 2 days trying to get it to work. Saw your post here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/351970/discussions/0/490123938431647535/ and figured I'd try asking if you could help diagnose the issue with your log files. Issue is, it won't event write the log files. Right now I get SteamApi_Init: failed, please restart Steam... yadayada. On my Windows 8 machine, I can laumch steam or steamlite and it runs just fine then with your patch. But on my windows 10 machine, it just never launches. I've tried deleting my log files with the TZT.exe method, running both steam( steam lite usually) and zestiria as admin, and tried windows 7 compatibility mode. Any ideas?

Steam has broken a lot of games recently with some multi-threading changes to SteamAPI. I believe this is to blame here, I'll release a version that doesn't use SteamAPI over the weekend to see if that fixes it.

You are a legend.

Can you grab the d3d9.dll bundled in my latest project and tell me if anything changes?

https://github.com/Kaldaien/AgDrag/releases/tag/agdrag_011

If not, there's a new feature in that version where if you set Silent=true in Steam.Logging, it disables SteamAPI completely.

AgDrag.zip's d3d9.dll still said the same error as before SteamApi_Init: failed etc.. Where can i disable set the flag; not seeing Steam.Logging?

My steam_api.log says 01/31/2016 21:17:54.539: * Game Installed Unknown Callback (Class=700, Id=3) btw

In d3d9.ini

[Steam.Log] Silent=false

Change that to true

That option has always existed in the ini file, but it used to only control whether steam_api.log was written. In later versions of my d3d9.dll, it controls whether Steam related features are used or not.

Alright, set it to true, saved, ran as admin and it still gave me the error. Same exact issue as here: might try giving all the steps a go again: https://steamcommunity.com/app/351970/discussions/0/490123727975365775/

Corrupted files, fixed after reinstalling steam and the game
