Every time i try to run payday 2 whit the iphlpapi.dll in the directory it just says "FATAL error" "Steam must be running to play this game".
i have steam running and i have tried restarting it

Confirmed, getting this as well.

Edit: Wondering how the DLL identifies Steam. There's lots of differences for us with the beta and other options that we have been invited to. Eg Home Stream, etc.

i thought this mean that you were banned or something. but just delete all the scripts and the dll file that loads the lua scripts and it will all work just fine ^_^

i know... but i want to cheat

Solved: Opt out of beta. Use vanilla steam client. Should work.

Well it does works... but also means that in the near future they will prevent the game to launch with that .dll

Not really. I'm guessing the API in the Steam Beta change, reworked, variable names changed or depreciated. It'd just need a few things changed or the module that checks if steam is running; removed.

The problem is that you are using version of the LUA hook that is too old, use the 2.24 version, you can google it or I think that the pirate perfection has it.
You are welcome

The Pirate Perfection DLL doesn't cause the error that makes the game not launch, however none of the hacks work. Someone said in the thread that the newest version of Pirate Perfection is finished, but that's just a rumor and the hack hasn't been released. Regardless, I'm sure the hack will be fixed sometime soon.
