  How do you send messages to individual friends in the new PC version?  I would think you should be able to do it from their profile page if you're friends.  Don't see a way to do it on the WGT website.  I'm using Google Chrome web browser.

  If you are on the steam version, use shift + tab and you get the friends list. You can add friends from there. 

  If you are on the launcher, you have to login to the web version to access your friends list. You have to be on your profile page to see the list.

  Don,

  Using shift-tab on Steam opens the list of my Steam friends. I have none, pout! LOL

  How do I import my WGT friends list to Steam?

  I quickly read through the instructions to add Steam friends and like virtually everything else there got confused. It's tough to be old.

  Have fun and hit 'em straight,

  John

  Hey John -

  You can add me as a Steam friend.  Do a search for fairbairn81 on the add friend page and then you can send me a request.

  I don't think you'll be able to import your WGT friends to Steam friends without knowing what Steam name they are using.

  You have to add $5 to the steam wallet. Then buy $5 of WGT Credits. Then you can Add Friends. I would add $10 just to be sure.

  Problem is, a lot of members don't use their player name. You have to find out what their Steam name is..

  Just to clarify and avoid confusion... There are 2 different (and separate) "Friends" lists:  your WGT Friends and your Steam Friends.

  There is no 'importing' one list to the other.  They are completely separate.

  To access your Steam Friends list (and send a message to a Steam Friend), do what Don said (Shift + Tab).

  I do not believe there is currently a way to send a message to one of your WGT Friends within either the new PC version or the Steam version of the game.  You can only do that on the WGT web site.
