SmokeAPI is a C++ library that hooks the Steamworks SDK to emulate DLC and inventory item ownership in Steam games the user legitimately owns. It supports 32-bit and 64-bit Windows and Linux systems and offers optional configuration.

Use cases

  • emulate dlc ownership in steam games
  • unlock dlc in steamworks games
  • emulate steam inventory items
  • hook steam_api dll calls
  • bypass steamworks dlc checks

When to choose

  • you own a game legitimately and want to test Steamworks DLC verification behavior
  • you need a Steamworks hooking library for research or interoperability purposes

When to avoid

  • you intend to access paid DLC without purchasing it - this may violate Steam's terms of service and applicable law
  • games using third-party DRM, Denuvo SecureDLC, anti-cheat, or server-side ownership checks
  • free-to-play games or games without steam_api DLLs
