I'v no idea why, but since Uplay updated around the 4th of December, I've not been able to get my copy of Far Cry 4 to work with Steam overlay properly.

If I launch Far Cry 4 through Steam when Uplay is closed, it works just fine. But if Uplay is already open, it shows I'm playing for about 2-3 seconds and then says I'm not.


I've tried adding Far Cry 4 with its Uplay ID (Target: uplay://launch/420/0) and adding Uplay.exe itself. Both to no avail.

Any suggestions?

I am using a non-Steam version that came with my GTX 970 and my system specs are in my sig.
