Thanks but I already did that. I moved all the mod files to the directory where the XComGame.exe file was... but it still tries to look for a steam directory...

Are you using a pirated copy? They don't work with mods. Some of us don't use STEAM but the physical copy.... so back to my original question is there a work around? I find it puzzling why one would make a mode that needs a steam path... Piracy is not tolerated here. X-COM is a Steamworks game, and can only be played through Steam, so the only way to play it without Steam is through a pirated copy or through the use of cracks. And as stated, piracy is not tolerated on the Nexus. Therefore, you have been banned from the Nexus. You have the right to appeal the ban, granted you have proof of purchase. - Z

Modpatcher does not work on non-steam installation. I'm getting an error about steam path not found. Can this be fixed? Changing the path to a steam directory does not work too.... 10:48:39 Startup 10:48:39 steampath Error 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 checkcp return true 10:48:41 Backup found, use as base 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 steam not found 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 File found in root 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 steam not found 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 File found in root 10:48:41 path vars backup: XComGame.exe xcom-orginal.exe 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 steam not found 10:48:41 steampath Error 10:48:41 File found in root 10:48:41 updateres var: XComGame.exe 10:48:41 getmodfile: DefaultGameCore.mod 10:48:42 done
