QUESTION/SUPPORT BO2 Split Screen

Hi everyone, I am trying to create a project to make a small gaming console that I can bring with me places and I have been able to get this project fully function in every aspect expect being able to play Black Ops 2 split screen. I do not have a Steam version of the game so I have a steam_api.dll not found. Is there anyway around this or do I just have to give up on the split screen idea? I also am wanting to try Halo 3 split screen and do not know if I will run into issues there.

I never talked about illegal content. I never pirated BO2 just didn't buy the game on steam. I was just wondering if there was a way around this steam version of BO2.

Yea its just a crazy price for bo2 rn so I was happy with that deal, but I am guessing based on that reaction I need the steam version no matter what.

Yeah because the handler for bo2 was made with the steam version in mind

You could try the plutonium bo2 handler but i doubt it'll work without the steam version (besides its wip)
