I’m trying to add Steam Overlay in my game, but everytime I have same error in game’s log or editor’s log:

**LogOnline:Warning: STEAM: Steam DLLs not present or failed to load!  
LogOnline:Warning: Unable to load default OnlineSubsystem module Steam, using NULL interface**

I tried follow this:

I tried:

copy dll’s in packed game folder.

- download other Steam SDK versions (v129a, v130)

- bUsesSteam=true in target.cs

- create steam\_appid.txt file

- reinstall UE4

- install other version of UE4 (4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5)

- EVERYTHING IN THIS UNIVERSE!!!

But I have no Steam in game or editor.
