GM:S PRO to Steam GM:S PRO?

[Sven2157]

I have GameMaker: Studio Professional with: Android Export, HTML5 Export, iOS Export, Windows UWP..

Is there a way to convert my key for the version from the YoYoGames.com website into the Steam version? Do I even need to do this, to achieve the same result: publish to Steam WorkShop? Or can I somehow get the ability to output to Steam WorkShop?

Thanks

If you press "Recover" on the bottom of account page, you'll be [re-]emailed your keys along with Steam equivalents for them. This does not invalidate non-Steam keys so you can use both.

The free version of GameMaker: Studio on Steam is sufficient for that. Steam workshop is a Steam-exclusive target as uploads go through Steam API (not to be confused with Steam Greenlight, by the way).

Man that worked like a charm! Thanks again!
