Overview
A guide for those who have sr2 on their library and do not know how to play co-op or multiplayer mode
Sup people
Sup fellas, this is my first guide so i’ll try to make it as brief as possible, so, many of you guys know you can’t play “officialy” Saints Row 2 in co-op and multiplayer mode, cause the gamespy servers have been shut down since long ago. But here i’ll show you how to play it with a third party developer named Tunngle, so without further ado, let’s get with the steps of how to play it.
STEPS
1.- First you’ll need to download tunngle here i’ll leave you the link for it [link] you can either make a tunngle account before downloading or after it, be sure to create it. The installation process is very basic, so i think that would be unnecessary for a step, just install, and done. NOTE: When you finish downloading it you’ll have to restart your computer, so better save all the stuff you’re working with
2.- Once we’ve downloaded it and logged in we have to go to the button that says “play your game” it appears on the left superior part of the screen near to the top, and then we’ll click on search
3.- In the search textbox we’ll type Saints Row 2 and when the result shows up, click on it until a chat window that shows all the people playing at the time. You can recognize this chat if below says “send” and right to it “play”
4.- We’ll click on play, and then a window will show up and where it says “Choose Game .exe to launch” we’ll click on the three dots next to the textbox, then we must search the saints row 2.exe, if you don’t know how to find the steam game folders here i’ll show you how to find them. Computer/Local Disk (C:) (this depends on which local disk you’re keeping your steam folder if you have only the “(C:)” like me then do it as i tell you, if you have a disk partition do the same, but where you’re keeping your steam folder) /Program files x86/steam/steamapps/common/Saints Row 2/SR2_pc.exe. Once we’ve done that, we click on the “ok” button below.
5.- Now the only remaining thing is to play, if you’re going to play co-op just click on that option and choose “LAN PLAY” then type a name for the game and then load or make a new game, this process is the same for multiplayer
THANKS FOR VIEWING
