Hey guys.. new to the site. I was visiting an old friend tonight and talking about this great game we used to play together. We decided to get back into it. The sad part is that I can't find my copy of it anywhere. And lucky for me there is a Myth 2 forum. How awesome is that!! So I was curious if it was available for download?, and will it play with windows 7? From what I read it sounded like with the latest version it is playable. I started remembering the hours of fun I had with this game and gotta have it again:-) any help you can provide me with would be Very much appreciated! Thanks in advance for your kind advice.

I'm not sure which update you used or which site you mean, but if it involved manually copying any files you may have missed a step.

Here's a link to the latest patch installer which does everything automatically:

Post back if you still can't get it to work.
