3) Copy the files from the 'Config' folder into XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XEW\XComGame\Config:

4) Copy the files from the 'Localization\INT' folder into XCom-Enemy-Unknown\XEW\XComGame\Localization\INT:

6) Play the game!

Troubleshooting

The directories are mostly commonly found with this path: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\"

Do NOT use Long War Mod Manager as it will try to remove LW Rebalance and reset you to LW 1.0 each to you install a mod.

If you are installing on Linux please read the "Linux Install Readme.txt" contained within the LW Rebalance zip

LW Rebalance will only work with campaigns that were started with LW Rebalance. Different versions of LW Rebalance are mostly compatible with each other. I recommend checking version differences to determine how significant changes were and if they would affect your game before you upgrade to a new version.
