An Install Issue

<div class="IPBDescription">Wrong Steam Account?!?!</div> I am currently trying to get steam to recognize NS 3.4
Now, heres the problem I have two steam accounts, one is mine one is my roommates. NS keeps trying to install to HIS e-mail blahblah@hotmail.com when what I need for it do is to install under my e-mail rshewett@hotmail.com. So I tried several things already...

1.) I went into the steamapps folder and deleted his email (his steam account) I figured the installer would then default to my e-mail... No luck it actually recreated his email account....

2.) So i decided I would uninstall steam and NS. After doing that I reinstalled steam, then let it update, played some CS to make sure everything was working (and yes i was logged in with my steam account). No luck....

So im pretty much stumped here... That install file keeps going to his email as the default steam account and there is no way for me to tell it where it should really be going. In short when i click "Games" there is no NS....

It worked fine when we were using his steam account btw..

Any ideas ppl??

    hmm, when you installed NS v 3.1 was it under his account or yours, you have to make sure when installing 3.1 that you install it to yours, and then patch with 3.4

    Yes I had the SAME EXACT problem. I was at a pc cafe and tried installing, but it went to another persons account. What you need to do is simple. Close steam and try to install beta4. It will ask you WHERE you want to put it, browse and click on your account. Let the installation finish. THEN reclick beta1 and it now SHOULD install on your account. Then reinstall beta4, then beta4a. Enjoy sexay NS.
