Here's how to install the latest 'beta' patch for Steam,
Download the
1.16.4 patch and open it up. Click next until you get to the "
Ready to install" part. You'll see in the text portion it'll read:
Quote:
Warning!
Setup program cannot detect the game "Men of War" on this computer.
Press "Install" to install the patch to default folder or press "Cancel" to interrupt setup process.
Installation directory:
C:\patch_v1_16_4\
|
As you see in the quote, the bolded part is where it'll install to (it may read differently for you). Click install and finish the patch. Now you'll want to navigate to that folder and copy all of the files, and then paste them into your
official Men of War folder (
C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Men of War).
Now you're done!
To play online, you'll want to open the
mow_mp.exe file that's in your
official Men of War folder. Though that's
only for
multiplayer, there is no beta for single player. To play single player, just open the game normally how you would with Steam.
NOTE: Some say you should create a New Folder on your desktop and label it Men of War.. but that didn't work for me. ~ I'm also using Windows 7, so maybe that's why.
