Bug Description:
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
After the last update, after linking the second account to the twitch profile (or at least trying to), my family-shared alt account (made due to the limitations in building pieces per character on our server) suddenly appears to have lost the enablement of some of the DLCs, including Siptah.
Dunno, have a family shared account that broke down?
Iâd be glad if anyone knows if itâs a problem with steam, funcom launcher or what - just wanted to watch streams to unlock the feats on both accounts, reallyâŠ
Nope, itâs a private server - and until yesterday evening, it worked just fine. It seems like it got broken due to the âfree weekâ - is it possible that Siptah and those DLCs that are shown as ânot ownedâ are simply not part of / disabled for the free week?
@Keltica Thank you for your input, but it seems rather unlikely - though Iâll be sure to ask him. However, wouldnât you agree that due to the fact that Iâm:
#1 able to log onto the classic map #2 have about 70% of the DLCs enabled
it seems rather strange to assume that the reason of missing those specific 3 DLCs is due to the Family Sharing option having been disabled? Itâd seem more logical to assume that - if that were the case - Iâd just be unable to log into the game at all, wouldnât you agree?
Probably not. At this moment Iâd suspect that the âfree weekâ setting is overriding the family sharing ones, as previously, after a reboot - I always had to request myself on the alt account to âborrowâ the game. Now itâs displaying just the standard green âPlayâ button, but missing 3 of the DLCs.
@Narelle do you know, by any chance, if Siptah DLC is excluded from the freebie week?
I though that the free access/demo/trial was announced as a âfree weekâ, instead of just a weekend? Thatâs what I meant with the âfreebieâ - as in, you can access the game for free during that time.
I tried the twitch drops yesterday, with main account.
My steam was linked to twitch since long, but i had to delete the link, relink it again, to make it work properly.
Not even tried family share right now.
Also browser may impact, Firefox makes troubles with Twitch, Chrome is working for me.
So may be bit test and trials to get the stuff.
Check game-files trough Steam.
Go on your library, right click game, property, there you find the option to check your game-files. Can happen that a file is broken or corrupted after a patch. So still good to make some verification in case of troubles.
I couldnât launch game on alt because it couldnât verify ownership of DLC. Went into owner account and verified game files and then it worked. While you are doing that steam says âvalidatingâ in library.
I have now checked this as well on my account. My main account has all DLCs and I have linked my main account to Twitch (if this makes any difference). When I log with my family shared account, I am missing the same 3 DLCs as in the opening post:
