First off... DO NOT RUN THE SETUP!!



YOU MUST HAVE STEAM INSTALLED 



Okay, so here is what the NFO tells you:

</P><P>INSTRUCTIONS: 

1.Edit INSTALL_DOW2.bat
set SRC="D:\Downloads\DoW2\Dawn of War II_disk1.sim" Way to file SIM
set DST="c:\DoW2" Way Unrar
2.Save and enter INSTALL_DOW2.bat
3.Copy all files from Folder "loader" to game
4.Change address SteamClientDll in file rev.ini on your
5.Click Loader and Play!



And that essentially is all you have to do... but for people who are used to RELOADED's releases, here it is in some detail.

Extract the RARs.  It will make a folder called rforce-warhammer-dow2

Go two folders deep.  You will see "Crack" and "DoW2".  Open Crack.

**Make a folder where you would like the game installed to, call it "game" (rename it later) - probably in your program files.

RIGHT CLICK on the INSTALL_DOW2 file and edit it.  There are two lines needing edited.

The first line reads: set SRC="D:\Downloads\DoW2\Dawn of War II_disk1.sim"  Highlight D:\Downloads\DoW2 and paste in your directory that you unzipped with the actual game files in it, named DoW2.  Mine looks like this
set SRC="E:\Users\Seth\Desktop\Torrents\Warhammer_40000_Dawn_of_War_2-rFORCE\rforce-warhammer-dow2\Down\Game\DoW2\Dawn of War II_disk1.sim"
 MAKE SURE YOU ADD THE Dawn of War II_disk1.sim at the end.

The scond line reads: set DST="c:\DoW2".  This is the destination folder that we made called "game".  Mine reads
set DST="C:\Program Files (x86)\game"


SAVE THAT FILE, same name.

Execute INSTALL_DOW2

A command prompt window will appear, and look something like this:

Quote

Total 611 file(s), Processing file 344...


Once that finishes, copy everything from the loader folder inside the Crack directory to "game".

Open the file "rev.ini" in the game folder, it is a config.  The last line of the config is the directory where your steam folder is at, edit it to be so.  Don't forget the steamcleint.dll at the end.  Mine reads
SteamClientDll=C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamclient.dll



End.

when do you crash...i played about 3 missions. Although the gameplay is awesome, its mostly taken from Company of Heroes. Its like CoH concepts have been re-implemented all over again in another universe. You can deployed heavy bolters to supress enemy (like HMG in CoH). Demo charge = satchel charges. Its the same old story in the first few missions atleast. But....... I STILL LOVE IT.....the wargear, looting, and commander's RPG elements are all pretty cool :)
------------------------
btw it did not slow down on cut scenes for me

hmm...i don't have any problems so far. I used the 180.xx drivers but now installed the latest 182.xx drivers to enable soft particles...No problems so far. Do you have anything like xfire or fraps that might interfere with the game?

Found an annoying aspect of the game. You can't save during the middle of a mission :(

There is no need of building buildings. You're deployed on one of the two planets and you just shoot the enemies, capture buildings and kill the bosses.
That's everything.

I'm very pleased by DoW2 btw :)
