Cannot patch to 1.16.4!

[Merefield]

There's a VERY simple solution to this.

Don't attempt to patch the Steam installation - let that auto-update when it becomes available, leave it alone for now!

instead, copy the contents of and the men of war folder within the steam directory system to a completely separate location, say root of your programs folder.

second, download and expand the patch to a temporary directory.

Then, copy the contents of that temp folder onto the copy of your game you made in step 1.

Result - a working version of the patched game!

Just launch with "outfront_mp.exe"
