Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2 Message Board  

step-by-step tutorial:
this is working on the vitality release of the game. u install the game using vitality INSTALLER

1. download the loader from here Link
2. extract the loader to where u installed DOW 2
3. I DIDN'T UPDATE THE GAME, so maybe u should try not to install the updates
3. open rev.ini and copy paste this

[Loader]

# Specify the name of the application to load.
# You can also specify the command line.
#
ProcName=dow2.exe -dev -nomovies

# Specify the location of the original steamclient.dll
# which comes with Steam client
# You can comment this line out if the game doesn't use it
#
SteamClientDll=steamclient2.dll

4. run the game using loader.exe

creating a shortcut for loader.exe and placing -dev in the parameter won't work. Also i didn't use the mod mentioned in the posts.

hope this helps and sorry if i wasn't clear on my other post
