It is imperative to know the version of the game, as it carries complete information about the entire development. Also knowing it, you are able to update the game, download various modifications or simply fix errors related to the gameplay.
Instructions
Step 1
There are several ways to find out the version of your game (it is a combination of numbers and letters in Latin). Follow a specific plan:
Step 2
On the desktop or through the "start" menu, select the game and click on its shortcut. Wait for the game to start. Here is the main page, where "New game", "Options", etc. are located. Look at the bottom left corner. It will say something like "version 0.354a" or "version 1.546"
Step 3
You can also go the other way. Do the following:
Find the shortcut to the game, go to its properties, and write "console 1"
Example: "D: / Program Files / 1C / Behind Enemy Lines 2. Brothers in Arms / outfront.exe - console 1"
Step 4
In the game press the tilde key “~” - this will bring up the console to your screen. In it, write “version” in Latin letters. When you press the “Enter” button, you will be provided with the following data:
Version
Protocol version 42
Exe version 12.1.2.6/22.0.0 (cstriks)
Exe build: 11:25:44 Jun 17 2002 (45784)
Protocol version is the version of the network protocol.
Exe version x.x.x.x (yyyyyy) - x.x.x.x is the version of the game engine, (yyyyyy) is the name of the modification.
Exe build is the date and number of the build, it changes with the release of new updates.
Step 5
And the last way, thanks to which you find out the version of your favorite game, is this:
Remember where you installed the main game folder with its files. Next, among them, find the main shortcut that launches the toy. Go to properties, in this window there will be several items, click on the window called "Version". Then you will see detailed information about your game and its version, as well as the release and installation date.
Step 6
If you tried to enter online "battles", but you get an error, update your game through the official sites or using programs. Remember that with every update, the version of the game changes. For example: 1.455 - 2.34b
Good luck!
