AStats currently does a beta test on a new system to create guides. Before, you needed to log in to a wiki where you needed an extra account. Those times are over now, as you can easily create achievement guides on the achievements pages.

A list of the already implemented guide-related features:

• Guides can be created directly from the achievement page, you only need to be logged in
  
• Guides are featured more prominently now, for example on the game page you see if an achievement has a guide
  
• There is an own site for recently added or changed guides
  http://astats.astats.nl/astats/Recent_Guides.php

Under development:

• Writing good guides will reward experience points for AStats in the new experience system. It is currently under discussion how this is done, we might do it so that you receive experience after a mod okays your guide but it is visible already when you post it. The exact amount of experience also is yet to be determined.

Note: You must already have an achievement to write a guide for it.

Hello Achievement Hunterz. ;)

You know the Empires-Mod? If not, it's also ok. Because this mod has now eight (new) Steam Achievement to unlock. These achievements are not really new; they're there for a while, but not unlockable until the new patch was released several days ago.

Patchlog with the hint of the new (and now unlockable) Steam Achievements:

Have fun! :)

Today Valve added 10 new Steam Achievements for RAGE because of the new released DLC called "The Scorchers". The price is $5/5€.

Here[www.abload.de] you have a look for the new Steam Achievements with details.

Have fun!

Here's my step-by-step guide with pictures how to get the eight Steam Achievements in the UDK - Unreal Development Kit. It's not that easy to make this happen. Some steps are needed and you can't overview your Steam Achievement status quo in your library, just see simple overview via the game library[abload.de] or in-game via this[abload.de].

It took me a while to create this guide and I hope you have success. Give me some feedback if you have troubles with my guide. :)

Important facts:
-> You don't need to install Unreal Tournament 3:Black Edition (unless you wanna play with UT:BE maps -> *read step 10 for more details) to get the UDK Steam Achievements; the "extern" UDK (about 1,8gb) is enough.
-> The UDK via Steam (library/tools) is not working for this (error: this game is not available at the moment, blah...)
-> Being on the map (step 8) you have to maximize the game window via Alt+Enter to successfully leave the map later. (step 9)


Here we go:

1) Download the UDK extern via this link[www.unrealengine.com]! Get the November beta one.
2) After installation, let the UDK start for the first time automatically. Finish the UDK.
3) Go to Start/All programs/Unreal Development Kit/UDK-2012-10 and then click on UDK Editor. You're in the Editor (NOT ingame) now.
Additional notice: Create a shortcut of the editor and put it in your task bar to get this started faster. :)
4) Now you have to go to File/Open (here[www.abload.de]) and for example to have a working map take the VCTF-Necroplois.udk one (or DM-Deck.udk)
5) Start the map through the edtor; this lasts some seconds.
6) Now you just see a picture in the foreground (you're STILL in the editor; NOT ingame).
7) Go to Play/On PC! (here[www.abload.de]) Seconds past by (for me about two(!) minutes!); saving/compiling the map and starts then - finally IN-GAME.
8) IMPORTANT: You have to maximize the game/the map with Alt+Enter to exit the map later again (view step 9) --> Thanks Chrissyx for this hint! :)
9) Problem: The map runs but you haven't got any enemies (bots) in your game. Exit the game with the ESC button - not the whole game/UDK - and you return to the main menu.
10) Go to Instant Action/Settings/Bot Skill level (for example: Novice)/Back/start game (take the VCTF-Necroplois or the DM desk map) *You can also choose more maps if you have installed UT3:BE.
11) And now you have "activated" the Steam Achievements.
12) Have fun collecting eight new Steam Achievements. :)

Maybe there is another easier way to "activate" the Steam Achievements in the UDK. If yes, let me know and I can re-edit my guide or "enhance" it.

Now have fun and grab these achies, hunters. ;-)
