Hey, Beta fixes are now on Steam.

1) Right-click CTGW in Steam library
2) Click properties
3) Beta tab
4) From the list choose "Beta"

CTGW should now automatically update


It is a Beta patch for people who had:

- Install or Start problems as there was a bug in the Steam installer.

- At random occasional CTD on end turns.

- AI hanging or very long AI turns due to an AI looping bug.


Just select beta and you will see in your Library list Commander: The Great War [beta], it will patch automatically.

Same to return to without the beta and select NONE- opt out from all beta programs, Steam will auto patch you back to the original version.

Just select beta and check your library list, than you have the beta.


- Close Steam

- Restart your computer

- Make sure in your Steam Library you have Commander: The Great War [beta] listed, so we know the Steam beta is active.


It is a test Beta patch, but please anyone suffering from the above problems, please try the Beta patch and give us some feedback if it solved your problems.

Hello there,
when I follow your steps, I don't have an option in that Beta tab. "None" is all I can select there...

The latest Open Beta 1.6 is not up yet, this is am older post.

Asa the new Open Beta patch is life be sure I will post it around.

So did you take the older beta offline?
Shouldn't I at least be able to opt in?
That would let me get the newest automatically then, when it is available.

I want to add, that I can opt in at my laptop, but not with the steam installation on my desktop PC.
