The only reliable way to watch old demos is with a NoSteam version

I have some version of tf2 saved after 119 update… Maybe a possibility to make a rollback?

Would’ve been nice if someone could write a kinda tutorial on how to do it. It’s so hard to understand the stuff that’s written before.

I’ve used GCFprep for more than a year to create rollbacks/backups (~200mb each) and they worked great. But after june 12th update they’ve stopped working :( now I had to download no-steam clients (~6gb each) and update them manualy to the version i need. That’s just sad.

You’re doing it wrong then ;)

1. Download non-steam TF2 once.
2. Update it to a version you need.
3. MAKE A BACKUP
4. Goto 2.

All you need now is to download the updates.

I have been struggling with the nosteam version and all I get is an error message and then the game shuts down. It loads to the main menu-screen but I notice there is another background instead of a TF2-background. As soon as it has loaded I get an error message and the instance crashes. Anyone got any ideas? :s

Does the error message say anything useful?

Also, make sure to apply *all* the updates. (in the right order too, but I trust this is obvious)

Feel free to add me on steam if you need help.

not anymore, rollback patches havent been created since a while back, not even one for before the 119th update

If I’m wrong though I would be overjoyed since I lost a shit ton of demos :x

@morf
check the event viewer, what causes the crash…if any file, delete it, and copy the newest version that you can find in the updates

it worked for me when it crashed all the time with hl2.exe error
