I found that file in the root of the renpy directory and made a copy in the path you specified, but it still isn't working for me :(

Well because it's not JUST THAT FILE! you need to put all the files present in the .zip.
Just unzip the steamlib.zip preserving the paths and done :)

Unzip the file in the game root folder preserving the zipped path/directories.
Every info needed is in the sentence above. Sorry but have no more time to post on this thread.

You don't need any files other than the renpy-steam-libs.zip.

There are some "_renpysteam.pyd" files on jack_norton's games. I searched that file in my RenPy and found only modules/_renpysteam.pyx. It doesn't compiles into pyd on my machine, nor into distribution archives...

I added jack_norton's "_renpysteam.pyd" and steampi.dll to my game's directory (lib\windows-i686\Lib). But achievements still not working. Are there any more needed files?

PyTom has just sent me the zip file containing the files you mention, so I guess you'd need to PM him, although I've just tested it and achievements still aren't being picked up...

Can you answer my question? Is there any files, except some "_renpysteam.pyd" and "(lib)steamapi.(dll)(so)(dylib)" ?

Not that I can see, for Windows anyway.

He just sent me this zip too. Achievements works correctly at least on Windows and Mac OS X.
