Description

This gets the account name for Valve's Steam (Half-Life 1, 2 etc) It also returns Steam's install path (e.g. C:\Valve\Steam)

Usage

Call GetSteamAccountName
Pop $R0 ; account name e.g. afrow uk
Pop $R1 ; steam path e.g. C:\Valve\Steam

If Steam is not installed, then empty strings are returned.

If Steam is installed but no accounts are found, then the account name returned is "[ACCOUNT_NAME]".

Example

Perhaps you want your $INSTDIR to be the full path to the SourceMods folder (for HL2), in which case you'd do it like so:

LangString SteamNotInstalled ${LANG_ENGLISH} "Valve's Steam is not installed!$\r$\nSetup will now exit."
 
Function .onInit
 
  Call GetSteamAccountName
  Pop $R0 ; CaDDy-
  Pop $R1 ; E\Games\Steaaam
 
  # Check if Steam is installed
  StrCmp $R0 "" 0 +3
    MessageBox MB_OK|MB_ICONSTOP $(SteamNotInstalled)
    Abort
 
  # It is installed so set INSTDIR
  StrCpy $INSTDIR "$R1\SteamApps\$R0\SourceMods\MyMod"
 
FunctionEnd
