Is there a way to install the release version without the patches?

I was under the impression that the disk just had the Steam install,dot net and visual basic libraries.

You needed to be online and install Steam would d/l the current game.(patched to latest version)Turning update off would just prevent future patches.

I do not think you can now get just the original version unless someone had the foresight to back it up using the Steam backup.Once the game is out the cat is out of the bag and you are not getting it back in.

I think the original version was number 1.00.13820
