FAQ!

Can this get me restricted in osu!?

What is that error that pops up when launching the game using this method?

Does this method work for other games?

How long will this work?

Will I have any of McOsu's features by doing this?

Why does osu! run at a lower framerate by doing this for some people?

You are not breaking any of the osu! rules by doing this. You are merely redirecting McOsu to osu!, nothing else. This will not risk a ban on your account.That's just osu! attempting to read McOsu's launch commands for VR or Desktop mode. You can safely ignore these, they have no effect on osu! as mentioned previously.From our testing -You can turn any non-Steam game on your PC into a Steam game via this method. This guide shows an example of how to turn osu! into McOsu on Steam, but we've done stuff like turn Obulis into Minecraft or turn FlatOut 2 into Soapbox Race World!Some games do not know how to interpret %command% launch options and immediately crash. Do some of your own testing and see what works! From my own testing - games from before 2010 do not usually work, but some do.As long as Steam continues to support this command via launch options, it'll continue to work!Nope! osu! and McOsu are two separate games. If you want to go back to playing McOsu, you will have to delete the command in your launch options. If you want to go back to playing osu! - just re-add the launch option!That's due to Steam Overlay. You get similar results if you add osu! as a non-Steam game to your library. osu! does not like Steam Overlay very much. Besides that - Steam will think you're running McOsu instead of osu!, so all of Steam's features for McOsu will be available (except the Workshop).Many thanks to Sam for showing me how to do this initially and for being cool with sharing this method with all of you. Hope you enjoy playing osu! on Steam!
