Comments
This could make use of a tiny update. I recently tried it again, it installed but it could not find my DS2 installation in the registry and as such could not start it. Apperantly it does not like modern Steam installations.
For some reason the steam version is 3.0 and not 2.0 like the retail version. Therefore the Succubus Manager and both versions of All*Saves think you are trying to load Broken World and thus fail. Somewhere on the site is a work around that iryan and I put together. But my aging brain can not remember where the heck I put it. What you do is find the DungeonSiege2.exe within the steam install and rename it to something else and copy and paste the DungeonSiege2.exe from a retail game. If you can not find the post or the link to the correct DungeonSiege2.exe does not work. Please let me know and I will email it to you. PM your current email address to me if you need the file.
This was submitted to me in discord channel by Genesis. It helped me out.
Hey there Damein. Thanks for the attachment. I gave it a quick check; it contains two batch files and I scanned w/ antivirus. No offense intended to you, I just always check out attachments from anonymous users. Thanks again!
Is there a way to play with this mod via GameRanger? In GR you have to choose the DungeonSiege2.exe in order to launch a room. Or does it work over hamachi as well?
Also, is this compatible with the hotfix mod by KillerGremal? And what about other compatibilities (Sorry, for the double-post, couldn't find a way to edit it)
For some reason it will not load BW for me .
