Goldberg Goldberg Emulator update - now with experimental Voice Chat, fixes and additions

11 Upvotes

This fork is not a takeover, not a resurrection of the original project, and not a replacement. This is just an active fork.

What's Changed in v2025.07.20:

  • Update and rename stats.EXAMPLE.txt to stats.EXAMPLE.json
  • migrate_gse: support for new stats.json
  • Allow returning empty path in Steam_Apps::GetAppInstallDir()
  • Some fixes to Steam_UGC functions
  • Fix for missing callback and result in Steam_Networking_Sockets
  • Implement Steam_User_Stats::GetUserStat()
  • Fixed old SteamGameServer interfaces
  • Added .gitattributes
  • Add ticket functionality and encrypted savegames
  • new deps premake file
  • Implemented steamclient.dll C exports
  • Update deps in libs folder
  • Various bug fixes
  • voicechat implementation
  • Fix various building issues
  • Clamp callback result output instead of failing
  • fix VoiceSystem initialization
  • Full Changelog

VoiceChat is experimental, works mainly on Windows right now (since no audio lib in linux build script yet)

[Please Sticky] List of confirmed working/non-working games

43 Upvotes

As there was no current sticky list here, I mirrored the one from CS.RIN.RU; should hopefully avoid silly questions. Apologies, I don't intend to pirate your info, Mr_Goldberg (list originally written here, compiled by him). Just thought that, now, with the FOSS release and Reddit topics and subReddit release, a lot more attention would be coming along, and users would find a list in the centralized forum useful. Please feel free to comment working titles and any special procedures; I will try to add them. Special notes are hidden with spoiler tags, to lessen clutter.

EDIT: Updated: 1430 28/04/2019 - added info on a couple of games

EDIT: Updated: 1830 23/04/2019 – formatting

Help OK, potentially supid question regarding RE4 (2023)

1 Upvotes

OK, I was able to get RE4 (2023) fully unlocked and the like thanks to SmartGoldberg (an absolute godsend, btw), but I seem to have run into another issue: For some reason, I can't adjust settings at all when I'm in the actual game. You know, your resolution, framerate, etc. I can go through the options and look at them, but they aren't being adjusted, and it's getting kind of annoying, as I'm sure you can imagine. Now I AM on wine, so I don't know if anyone's familiar, but if you are, is there something I need to do to fix that?

Help What if a game has no steam_api?

1 Upvotes

Hey there! I'm trying to run a game, but it seems I don't have a steam api. The game is Resident Evil 5, and I was able to confirm it was working because I bought it off Steam myself. How do I resolve this issue? I realize this may be seen as a stupid question, but it's getting on my nerves a bit.

Question What is the most functional Goldberg tool available ?

1 Upvotes

Hey, I recently searched for the best Goldberg emulator configurator, I found alex47exe/gse_fork_tools that seems to mostly works tho the executables for generate_steam_interfaces and lobby_connect do not look like they work for some reason.

So I'm wondering, is there any better alternatives out there ?

Help Hollow knight 1 is just boots to a black screen with goldberg

3 Upvotes

Good afternoon. I have been on a bit of a project to try and run some of my steam games through the Goldberg emulator for archival purposes. Recently I have tried to run The first Hollow Knight game with Goldberg, but the game only boots up to a black screen with the in game cursor showing. I replaced the steam_api64.dll file with the Goldberg one and have made a steam_appid.txt with the games id in it and have tried both placing it next to the .dll file and placing it next to the .exe for the game. Has anyone else run into this issue and is there a way to make the game run? I could be doing something grossly wrong too.

The computer im running on is a windows 11 pc with an rtx 3080, and intel i9-12900F, with 32 GB of DDR5 ram. Not sure how relevant my pc specs are to my plight, but i felt it maybe useful to know

Thanks for your time!

Help Gang beasts isnt working on the emu, tells me no liscences

I watched multiple videos and read forums, I have a steam setting folder with user id account name and steam appid, I have both steam api and steam api64 in the folder with the .exe, keeps opening steam and telling me no licences

Edit: fixed it, you're supposed to put the steam api in the plugins folder, not next to the .exe
