    Icon5 How to "swap factions" on steam

    Ive looked everywere on the forums, everyone knows how to swap faction but no one explains how to do it. I know you need to use the launcher but I have Steam.
    I really want to try out the Bosporus faction. But on steam it doesnt work. Any help is appreciated

    Which method did you use to install the mod?

    put ' -mod:play_Bosphoran_Kingdom -show_err' in the launch options in steam.

    I've tried but once you get to main menu it says singular player and once you click that you have an option of historcial thats it.

    That's odd, i assume you put a space before '-mod:play_Bosphoran_Kingdom -show_err'? Do you have alex?

    Do you see the 'play_Bosphoran_Kingdom' folder in your directory? Shot in the dark, have u tried using the "RS2_ALEX.bat" file in your main directory?

    its in your folder that contains the mod. it might work but probably not, a window will pop up and then just enter the corresponding number or letter and hit enter.

    oh do i have to add the ".bat" part?

    No, that's just a setting i have enabled that allows me to see what type of files i have. The '.bat' or extension is hidden for you because you do not have that option enabled in your folder options.

    hmmmmm Bosporus isnt in the list , I think thats why im unable to play it, anyway to place it in?

    In the same folder that the, RS2_ALEX.bat is located, do you see a play_Bosphoran_Kingdom folder? I think perhaps you are missing the swap faction folders. You installed Roma Surrectum 2.5 right?

    yes and yes. I knew something was messed since it looks like very few have the same problem.

    Very strange that it is not in the .bat file, i don't know what to tell you. Maybe try to and to a clean re-install of the mod. I used to use steam but got fed up with it so i shelled out the extra 12 bucks to by from a site that doesn't have the problems steam has.

    You could do the same if you have the extra money. http://www.gamersgate.com/DDB-ROMETW...lection-bundle

    Maybe some one else can shed some light on this subject because i don't have a clue any more lol

    This the guide on installs RS2 on steam. You need to rummage through 'Frequently asked Questions' thread sticky to find it though. I'm not totally sure what your problem is but this would be the best place to look I think.

    Add these to the target if you have created a specific shortcut for Roma Surrectum in Steam.

    I have lost the Boshporus faction file, when trying to reinstall. Is there someway I could just download the faction and add it to the rest?
