Missing CD Key

[Kramer]

I just bought this game and steam usually shows your cd key upon launch of games that have them but it doesn't show for this so i can't play multiplayer. anyone know how to access my cd key?

I don't recall RtCW having a CD key, or much less asking you to input such key.

In any case, to view a game's CD key, right-click the game in the Steam client, then you'll see an option that says "View CD Key" (should be the third option). If you do not see a "View CD Key" option, then there isn't one for the game.

If the game is asking for a CD key but there isn't one, try sending a Steam support ticket... they should be able to figure it out q:

forget the guide!
all you have to do is enter the multiplayer code in the code field in the multiplayer mode.
the key can be found in the following directory:
hard disk on which you have steam installed:\Steam\steamapps\common\Return to Castle Wolfenstein\Main
the file with the key is called "rtcwkey".
to view the key you have to open the file with the editor or the Wordpad.
after that you have to start the game directly from the exe file each time!
if you start the game via steam the multiplayer key will not be saved!
some old games have compatibility problems with steam!
