    Steam Community + SupCom ?

    I can't seem to get the steam community to work in-game with supcom. I have the supcom short-cut in the steam games window. I don't see anywhere that the in-game community only works with steam games? Is it possible to get the in-game community/chat stuff to work with non-steam games?
