Getting Xonotic to work with the Steam Community overlay - MC SE7EN - 01-07-2011

Any chance of getting Xonotic to work with the Steam Community overlay? I can launch the game through Steam, and can bring up the overlay by pressing Shift+Tab, but my cursor doesn't work on the overlay. I was pretty excited it initially seemed to work, but pretty bummed about the cursor not working...

And for those wondering, no I don't mean we should have Xonotic available for sale in the Steam Store. Just talking about the overlay here.


And for those who don't know what I'm talking about and have Steam...

Add Game > Non-Steam Game > Xonotic. Start it up through Steam and hit Shift+Tab.

I'm on Snow Leopard 10.6.6. Are you able to move around your cursor, see your arrow, and click on things in the overlay?

Perfect example of a commonly bad thread title.

Why didn't you title the thread "Getting Xonotic to work with the Steam Community overlay"?

Yes, the big Xonotic cursor turns into a regular Windows cursor and i can click on everything.
