    Default Loading a Backup???

    Hello everyone,

    I recently uninstalled ETW, and would like to reinstall it. However, I don't feel like spending multiple hours downloading it, or digging the cd's out of storage, so I'm wondering If I can use a backed up version? After I installed the game, I copied and pasted it into a backup folder, and I'm wondering how I get steam to recognize this back up?

    Thanks,
    Erik

    just replace the files within the folder empire total war folder itself (make sure you replace ALL of them or else your game might explode) and steam won't know any better
