A broken GameInfo.txt file requires the installation of another small B patch after installing 8.06

Due to technical difficulties I am forced to rely on ModDB again to host the downloads for this patch.

Install the Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer
  • Navigate to the "Tools" section on your Steam games "Library"
  • Install the "Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer"
  • Run the Source SDK Base 2013 Multiplayer at least once.
  • You can exit once the menu has finished loading.

Install the latest Exterminatus Alpha
  • If you already have a copy of the EX alpha, delete it.
  • Run the alpha installer and follow it's instructions.
  • Restart Steam.  You should now see both the Exterminatus Beta 8 and Exterminatus Alpha listed in your library.

Tweaks
  • All the tyranid attack effects are now lime green.
  • New soundscapes by DontAsk (still WIP).
  • New map for testing the soundscapes (also WIP).
  • Changes to how the venom cannon plays it's impact sounds.
  • Changes how bolt weapon tracers and impact effects are played.
  • New Lictor talon skin.
  • New Seathspitter skin.
  • New Venom Cannon skin.

Accidental unicode encoding the gameinfo.txt stopped the mod listing in steam.  Installing the B patch should fix it.
