bluey1905 Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I have installed the game from disc onto my Mac, now Steam appears to be downloading the whole game again, it says 1hr and 20mins left on download, surely the patch is not this big?

Kriss Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 In Steam go to view/downloads and you'll see the size it's downloading, iirc it's a bit over 200Mb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ajax Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 This is what i got when i start an new game Database: Standard Autor: Sports Interactive Version: 12.0.0 So does this mean that i don't have the patch(12.0.2)? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because the database version hasn't changed. Start a new game then go to the 'FM' dropdown menu, then Game Status. The version should say '12.0.2 230123 (m.e v983)'.

I believe thats just the database version. What does it say at the top of the screen next to 'Football Manager 2012' when you start a new game/go into preferences. It should say Version 12.0.2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevgaleuk Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 did you follow the load from disk guide posted on one of the stickies? Basically it says to authenticate using steam and then when it starts to download it cancel. The instructions don't actually tell you to do this but thats the approach. Then to click on the game (right-click) and delete the online content. At this point you should put the CD in and install at which point steam will add a little at the end (I assume the patch but I'm not sure.) It worked for me - was greatful to have read it first as my first approach would have been disk in... Hope this helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
