Cross-account issues when uploading mods

  • Game Version: Steam

  • Build Number: v.100.17.18697.0 (477449R)

  • Platform: Steam / Microsoft Store / Xbox: Steam

  • Operating System: Windows 10

Issue:

When uploading a mod via Steam while logged into Xbox Live account in-game, mod does not appear in the ‘My Mods’ section on ageofempires.com and does not appear to be tied to your Age of Empires account - mod just show your Steam details.

Trigger Event:

Uploadi a mod through Steam while logged into Xbox Live account in-game

Repro Steps:

1: Log into Xbox Live Account in-game
2: Publish mod
3: Mod appears on ageofempires.com mod browser, but not in the My Mods section, and is tied to your Steam account only.

(apologies, posted this elsewhere before realising there was a ‘bug report’ forum)

Update: even linking accounts through the profile menu on this site doesn’t resolve this; you can see your mods if you log in through Steam.

The same is true of gameplay stats for Age2DE - even being logged into Xbox Live in-game, with accounts linked, doesn’t show stats. It just treats Steam as a completely seperate account, even if you’ve linked them.
