GFWL Gaps with offline account (Colin McRae: DiRT 2)
Hello world. I came across such a problem. Achivki does not work on an offline GFWL account. I tried everything. Installed the latest version of all GFWL components. (Links from the pcgamingwiki website). A good example will be the first race, after the occupied first place should fall achievka, but it is not. The same problem in F1 2010 and Tron: Evolution. As long as I remember, the acces in the offline akka are falling. What could be the problem?Answers by type: GFWL - Ancient Evil, and "Nafig these aces?" are not accepted, as the problem is described above.
Win 7 x64
P.S Key from F1 2011 works for Dirt 2, F1 2010 etc.?
Found a solution!! The first step in making the achievements work requires a real Microsoft profile (Xbox Live) - you can create it on the site xbox.com.
Remark, for further action you need to understand this theory:
Games for Windows Live has two types of key protection and verification (5x5 (Legacy) and SSA (Server-Side Activation). You can read here:

https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/The_Big_List_of_3rd_Party_DRM_on_Steam#Games_for_Windows_Live
Next, we should have two games set. One of the 5x5 DRM games list, and one of the SSA DRM. The first thing we start the game with 5x5 DRM, and go to your created Xbox Live account (Warning, make a password no more than 16 characters). We put a tag in GFWL "Enter the account automatically." Next we leave the game (Well, or you can play a little :)). We come into the game with SSA DRM. When you start the game, the machine enters our real account. We wait for the key to come in and show the key input field. Then press the button (Home), well, or what you have in charge of the GFWL overlay (Maybe it doesn't work then click "Arrow back" in the corner of GFWL), and we all entered into your real account, offline. Now I think of it, and in order to bring out these aces, you need to go back into the game with 5x5 DRM, and enter your acc. That's how it is. I think my article will be useful for fans of the achiv. The theme can be considered closed.)
P.S. As long as I remember, like, such problems before was not with SSA games, and in general with any GFWL. And in the offline account GFWL could get a little, but apparently something remade with the latest update GFWL 3.5. By the way checked on WIN 10 x64, the same as the same on the offline account in the games from the list of SSA do not work. (But now there's a solution). I also want to note that the keys of the type SSA DRM are not multifunctional, and rigidly tied to a copy of the game (Probably to the account too), so the key to F1 2011 does not work for Dirt 2, for example.
