The OSTs can be associated with games even when standalone and all of the DROD OSTs already work like this, as far as I can tell.
Oh, right. Yes, that is correct.
Still, there seem to be some discoverability issues the way things are set up currently. For some reason none of the Travelogue OSTs show up on the store pages of their respective games.
...
I agree this is sub-optimal and weird.

This is what I see in the Steamworks config:

This is how to configure the associations, and it appears correct. There's no other place to configure OST association, afaics, and I don't know what's causing the new OSTs to not show up on the main game pages. Could be a display bug on Valve's end: the other OSTs show up, but they were originally DLCs, so that may have something to do with why they appear.

Man it's been awhile since posting here! ...About too long, one might say, because man things have happened since last posting. (Long story.) Mostly just been waiting in the shadows until the SMS drops. At any rate, noticed a new patch went live for both GatEB and TSS on Steam, and figured we'd post an inquiry. The version up at the top left on the main menu says 5.1.1.459; has the fabled 5.1.1 dropped?

I am able to play all the smitemaster selections on my GOG install. Unfortunately, this will require an active CaravelNet account. Buying the SMS from Caravel and linking them to my account on this website make them available in-game on the GOG install.

I don't know if I keep access to them once my CaravelNet account expires since I have never let it do so. Presumably I would regain access to them upon reactivating my CaravelNet membership.

I guess I could try copying files over from the steam install to the gog install but I wouldn't mind having the expansions officially on gog as well.

If you purchased your SMS on Caravel, then you can download the hold files from the Purchase tab on your forum profile and import them to your GOG version of DROD even without active CaravelNet membership. Also, even if your membership expire, any downloaded/imported holds will remain playable.
