Steam – How to fix missing text strings after applying the “tag not found” bug fix

steamtitan-quest

Yesterday, I bought Titan Quest Gold via Steam and installed it with the German language files. After starting the Immortal Throne add-on, it imported my old characters from an old profile. After that, I faced the generally known "tag not found"-bug and fixed it with an update of the Text_DE.arc (211KB).

But there are still many missing tags which seem only to refer to the new features which were included with the add-on. The enchantment window, for example, is completely unusable. I've also tried to repatch the game to English but the add-on content texts were still missing.

I have searched for a solution, but I only found fixes for the general "tag not found" bug. How can I fix this bug?

I made the mistake of overwriting the Text_DE.arc in the IT folder with the one which was downloaded by the patch program. This file does not go to the resources folder of Immortal Throne. It must be placed in the resources folder of the normal Titan Quest installation, because TQ cascades its resources. After I placed it in the normal TQ resources folder it worked.

Yes, replaying the story is the only way to earn the acheivements.

I was in this situation myself, but I used the special function to "retire" my character, so at least I had bonuses with my new one.

Steam – How to add start menu items to a Steam game after the installation

From your Steam library, right click on a game and select "Create Desktop Shortcut."

You can then drag the shortcut onto your Start Menu. If you just drop it here, it will become "pinned" to the Start Menu, and you can access it quickly.

If you hold your cursor over "All Programs" for a couple of seconds, the menu will expand. You can then drop it into any of the folders, or leave it in the root of the "All Programs" listing.

If you want, you can also open the Start Menu's folder, and organize it with Windows Explorer. Where you'd normally type to search, type %APPDATA% and hit Enter. This will take you to the following directory:

C:\Users\(Your Username)\AppData\Roaming\

Then navigate to:

Microsoft -> Windows -> Start Menu -> Programs

Any shortcuts you drop into this folder will show up on your Start Menu, and any folders you create here will be created on your Start Menu as well.

Note that Steam shortcuts are protocol shortcuts - like links to URLs, and not program shortcuts - like links to an application. If you move your Steam installation, they won't need to be updated. However, if you uninstall Steam, shortcuts to your non-Steam games that were created through Steam will probably cease to function.
