How do I see the code for games purchased on Steam

Hello, I just wanted to update all of you before I forgot!

I went back to save the 7-zip methods linked to me, and it seems like that method does not work on newer games anymore, so I used the alternative Node.js method described in the redirect provided by @Netherate, and it worked like a charm! I’m not sure how but it did!

How To See Other Games' Code (current info posted in OP and Post 146 on 6/18/19)

This method is now required for games downloaded on Steam – the “Use 7-Zip on the .EXE file” won’t work on games that have been packaged recently. In particular, it won’t work for Lost Heir 3, and (when I re-downloaded it from Steam to check) the “Use 7-Zip on the .EXE file” won’t work on Lost Heir 2 either (and it used to work). Note that you are still able to open the .EXE file with 7-Zip, but it opens it as a “PE file” (= “Windows EXE”) and shows you a list of resources, including the unco…

I double- and triple-checked everything I was doing because, again, I’m bad at computers and I didn’t really have the best experiences messing with cmd and such parts of the computer (plus it was talking about Windows 10, which I clearly don’t have so it was shot in the dark here), and I did it! I managed to extract the scenes in The Fog Knows Your Name without any issues!

I recommend this new method as well if you are on desktop, because believe me, if I can do it without messing anything up, so can you.

Safe to say, this thread has been resolved!

@Phantmwolf Thank you for another alternative method! I’m not an Android user so I couldn’t have used this method anyway, but it will certainly help someone who does use Android and wants to read game codes as well.
