Patch Install Instructions (Patreon)

Beginning with Chapter 9, I'm releasing patches that provide the new chapter content, but in a much smaller format since the patch does not include previous chapters. 

The patch works on both PC (Windows & Linux) and Mac versions. Unfortunately, I'm only able to test and provide the instructions for the Windows version. The patch is a lot smaller, as it just contains the new content and changes to some other files since the previous chapter. The patch is not standalone, and it does require that you have the full game previously downloaded and still have it on your computer. Here's how to get these patches installed.

Video Install Guides:

• Patreon game version 
• Steam version 

Windows Patch Install for Patreon version

• Download the patch file and unzip it.
• If you are installing multiple patches, start with the oldest patch and end with the newest patch. This ensures you don't accidentally retain old game code.
• Browse to the folder you unzipped, and you should see some .rpa files inside that folder.
• Open a new File Explorer window and find your To Be A King folder with the game content. Inside that folder will be subfolder called game. Open that folder.
• Drag and drop (or copy) all the files in the patch folder to the game folder and be sure to overwrite any files when asked.
• If you are installing multiple patches, repeat this step for the newer patches, going in order from oldest patch to newest patch. For example, copy the files for the Chapter 8 & 9 patch before copying the files for the Chapter 10 patch.
• Launch To Be A King from the executable, and it should now show a new version number on the main menu and have a different main menu image. If it does, congrats! You have installed the patch properly. Load your old save and go play!

Windows Patch Install for Steam version

• Download the patch file and unzip it.
• I recommend you quit the Steam client before following the rest of the steps.
• If you are installing multiple patches, start with the oldest patch and end with the newest patch. This ensures you don't accidentally retain old game code.
• Browse to the folder you unzipped, and you should see some .rpa files inside that folder.
• Open a new File Explorer window and find your To Be A King folder with the game content. Mine is at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\To Be A King - Volume 1. I recommend making a backup copy of this folder somewhere (your desktop is fine). You should not need it, but it is easier than uninstalling the game from Steam and redownloading it, if you run into an issue with the patch.
• Now back to the folder where Steam stores the game on your system. Inside that folder for To Be A King will be subfolder called game. Open that folder.
• Drag and drop (or copy) all the files in the patch folder to the game folder and be sure to overwrite any files when asked.
• If you are installing multiple patches, repeat this step for the newer patches, going in order from oldest patch to newest patch. For example, copy the files for the Chapter 8 & 9 patch before copying the files for the Chapter 10 patch.
• Launch To Be A King from the executable, and it should now show a new version number on the main menu and have a different main menu image. If it does, congrats! You have installed the patch properly. Load your old save and go play!
