MPQ Bugs and Technical Issues
So I tried to play MPQ today on my desktop through Steam. Played it yesterday without any issues. When I try to load the game today it goes to playing on Steam but then doesn't load the game and returns quickly to as if I never even hit the play button. I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it, same issue. Restarted computer etc. I try to play it on my laptop through the same Steam account and it appears to work fine. What could be the issue with my desktop and MPQ? I have been playing the game for years and never encountered this issue.
*Edit* - appears to have been an issue with Steamworks Common Redistributables. Supposedly when I uninstalled and reinstalled it downloaded this again, however, it still didn't work. I went into Steam Tools and manually updated this tool and now it works. Hope this may help any other Steam users who run into this issue.
