Mark, what do you mean that it directly install it under c:\windows...surely it did create an own folder, didn't it?

I'd deinstall it again (with the Steam client) and then make sure that Dangerous Waters is not visible in the control section of Windows (where you manage your installed Windows programs).

In Steam under Options (I'm guessing the menu title here, since I've the German version of Steam) there is an option to manage the locations ,which should be used when you download steam games. Maybe just create a second location and try this during reinstall of DW ?

It was really strange. It would not let me create a folder to load it into. The button would not light up so you could click it. And it did not create a DW folder. It simply put it all in the general c:\windows folder. I know it sounds crazy. I thought the same thing myself. I cannot figure a way to get it to create a DW folder. I have uninstalled/reinstalled it twice and it always puts it in the same place and will not let me change locations.

Help!

DW nor Steam has any business inside c:\Windows

You must have messed up your Steam installation.

I don't disagree that it has no business in that folder. However, I am not an idiot. I know how to assign new folders and it never gives me that option. I was seeking helpful comments on how to resolve this issue.

I'm not positive who the above quoted comment was aimed at but if it was Pisces I'll kindly remind you that he is one of the most helpful members of this community.

Default The new RA mod

I have it and it is working on a clean and seperate install. Looks really good.

Is there anywhere I can find out what is different from the vanilla and LwAmi 311 mods?

Oh, and does anyone play this?

Default LWAMI 3.11

The latest version 3.11 sonar is amazing, real difficult to find one Kilo sub moving from layers at 3 knots speed, even surrounding by active and passive sonobuoys, I sweated in Red Storm Rising Campaign, finding the Kilo class in the second mission!.

Ah well I'm stupid in general as its very vauge to me, I tried to do this a few years ago and it didn't work. In general for a steam version what files from the folder do I extract and where do I put them and when do I run the installer etc. I know what it says, I'm just clueless.

Extract everything from the archive into game root folder. Run the .bat file as admin.
