Installation
Important! Before installing the old version of the game, turn off Steam Cloud for this game, then go into Steam offline mode (So that Steam does not start checking files while logging into the game! Run the game only in offline Steam mode!)

First you need to create a backup copy of the game

1. Go to the root folder with the game: \Steam\steamapps\common\theHunterCotW

2. Create a folder anywhere, copy all the contents of the game to the folder you created

3. After that, delete all the contents in the folder with the game (This is necessary to install the old version of the game)

I also recommend that you create a backup copy of your saves.

To do this, go to Documents - Avalanche Studios (You can create a Zip archive and drop the Avalanche Studios folder into the Zip archive and that's it)

Installing any version of the game theHunter: Call of the Wild ™

I recommend that you read this manual: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2353930763

Note: The beta version of the Steam client, released on September 23, 2021, includes a new ContentServerDirectory.GetManifestRequestCode method, and with this change it seems that it will no longer be possible to download older versions of the game because the client requests a code (GetManifestRequestCode) that changes every five minutes.

Halloween Event Version
The Halloween Event version of the game used the following manifesto:

dotnet DepotDownloader.dll -app 518790 -depot 518791 -manifest 571650642277926356 -username **** -password ****

Download this version of the game from the link: https:// mega. nz /file/uj4j2QSB#Ec6A92JSdL3CiFFSEOgY4qtm2OHQ7bcQ-k2zW5-B01k (Remove spaces)

The second link, if the first one doesn't work: https:// drive. google. com /file/d/1pHH5rpJgblN2x3kk6e6i56J12KOOfNY0/view (Remove spaces)

You drop all the contents from the archive into the theHunterCotW game folder.

After that, go into the game and enjoy this version of the game.

oh, did i miss the events? my bad. must be because i don't start the game that often anymore.
but i am ambitious.
since it is not possible for me to set goals in this game, because e.g. the stats are flawed, and it's absolutely no fun to keep looking north no matter what weapon i have,
i'd like to at least have all the achievements after i've done all the missions on every map, discovered all the locations, bought all the hiding places, own every item from the store.
then at least that's done properly.

i've reinstalled the game 15 times. i'll never do that again.
