Some games do not support Dual Shock 3, so I add them as non-Steam games to Steam, and use Steam Overlay to use my DS3 on those games, would it be possible to add 'non-Steam games added to Steam' to Galaxy 2.0 library?
I know that the feature to manually add games is underway, but it won't solve the problem of the controller. I really want to be able to use ONLY Galaxy 2.0 in the future.

Ok, found a work around:
Go to steam, add non-steam game, go to Galaxy 2.0, click "Link Executable", and you can run non-steam game with steam overlay from Galaxy 2.0

That's actually a good find I think. Also makes it kinda easy to add games manually to galaxy 2.0, even though you technically add them in steam. But if it works, it works :D

Maybe some day, Galaxy will have it's own overlay and controller support.

Can you elaborate on what you need to do? Also, will Galaxy Achievements still work?

1-Add non-steam game to steam.
2-Right click it on steam, create desktop shortcut
3-Move the shortcut the the game's folder (this is just for keeping things tidy, i also recommend keeping the shortcut just one word)
4-Create a run.bat file, with this inside (without qoutes and replacing the <text> with the shortcut's name:
"start <shortcut file name>.url"
5-Go on Galaxy 2.0, link executable and select the .bat file

Unfortunately that sounds like achievements won't work. At least for GOG titles.

I've tried to create a non-steam game in GOG 2, but to no avail.
I wanted to run ModOrganizer instead of Skyrim. It's a bit weird since it works on Steam but not on GOG, any reason for this?
