This is a lightweight alternative for Goldberg for the single purpose of unlocking DLCs. Just rename the game’s steam_api.dll to steam_api.orig.dll, download steam_api.dll from releases and put it in place of the original steam_api.dll, the game will keep interacting with Steam as usual but it will consider all DLCs installed. Of course, you also need to download the actual DLC files from somewhere.
I’ve actually only tested it on Linux, so I’m curious to know if it works fine on Windows and MacOS.
Sounds like a good way to play Russian roulette with getting banned from Steam.
Id love to see a source on how risky this actually is. Is there something in the steam toss that you cant mod this specific file on a legally bought game? I’ve been using sm similar for cities skylines for a while now.
I know people have gotten banned for pirating full games through steam but i have yet to see it happen over dlc.
