How to download alternate/beta version

[billthecatt]

I need to download an older version of "rise of nations" that steam allows you to do via a "beta" function calling it v1_10old

https://steamcommunity.com/app/287450/discussions/1/2217311444328461859/

Is there a way to get the queue-app functionality to allow you to do this, the way the steam client does?

Thanks,

billcat

Hey! I don't think this is something many people will need, so I'm not going to code it in, but I will accept a pull request if you or someone else adds the feature.

You can still add Rise of Nations v1.10 to the cache by running SteamCMD directly:

~/steam/steamcmd.sh +login $YOUR_STEAM_USERNAME +force_install_dir /tmp/lancache-autofill +app_update 287450 -beta v1_10old +quit
rm -rf /tmp/lancache-autofill
