redeem on steam? [SOLVED!]

Steam registry has a new entry called A Valley Without Wind External Registration.

So it should be letting us register pretty soon. It was added just a few minutes ago so codes aren't working yet at least.

Oh thank goodness, I was starting to get a bit impatient.

Better Late then never, especially when Valve Time could potentially be involved.

I don't know what that registry entry is or means; so don't get your hopes up too high

That's not me, that's emergent behavior

So I just downloaded the demo on Steam and it took my key. Steam won't take my key directly but the demo will?

Yea, the demo has always taken all valid keys from the beginning; steam doesn't get involved in that step.

That's how I play Tidalis. I had the demo and registered my key through that and it works. Will achievements sync if this happens though?

I don't know, but if steam doesn't try to do anything different with the "demo" appid than the "normal" appid it may well work.

Just tested, achievements do not sync. I have a ton of achievements on my non-steam copy but the Steam copy I just registered does not have any.

I figured as much, it needs to be a steam-registered game.

Well, Paul is right, at this time, they can't be registered through Steam (at least, not at this time). I can't speak to what is going on at Valve's end, but, we did recently ask them again about this issue. We're still waiting for their response.

I'm assuming still waiting, otherwise you would have let us know?

Yep.... Sorry.

Still not working, just to update anyone checking.
