"Total War: Shogun 2 stopped working" message
Hello,
I have been trying for several days to get this game working and cannot get past the first title screen. I have tried running it in both dx9 and dx10 mode, dx11 is grayed out. Eventually this screen goes away and the error message "shogun 2 stopped working" appears. If I hit the problems detail down button it states the following:
Problem signature:

After clicking the x I get the same message, but different problem details listed below:

Thanks in advance for your help

Well, one with a 9600GT as had his quit working after the release of Fall of the Samurai. This would mean you're not alone.
To be sure, have you gone through this, yet? https://support.steampowered.com/kb_...9828-SFLZ-9289
Re: "Total War: Shogun 2 stopped working" message
Thanks for the quick reply irish. Concerning the 9600 gt I am capable of playing this game on my 32 bit windows computer with a 9600gt no problem, so I don't think that is it. The 64-bit windows machine is my wife's and we are trying to play on steam with our brother in another state.
Concerning steam, I have been playing borderlands, borderlands 2, left 4 dead, left 4 dead 2 all with no problems.
On a side note, on my 32-bit machine my mouse arrow will turn into the sword and proceed to the sega screen, on my 64-bit machine, the mouse arrow has a blue circle next to it and never changes to the sword. Might mean nothing, but wanted to mention it. I have also did a fresh reinstall from steam and that did not make a difference.
Thanks,

What is the difference between the two machines besides 32bit and 64bit as in antivirus, firewall, router, other software?
Re: "Total War: Shogun 2 stopped working" message
wohoo, I got it to run. I kept searching the internet and came across a website that recommended that I remove all the listed files in the modified.txt file located C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Shogun2\logs. I moved those files out of the Total War Shogun 2 data directory and then verified the integrity of the game cache thru steam. There were quite a few pack files that had to be removed according to that text file, 38 to be exact. After that I booted the game up and the mouse cursor changed into a sword. Played thru one tutorial and all is well.
Now the next question, are there any critical pack files that would need to be put back in? I am guessing no, but wanted to throw it out there anyway.
Thanks,

You're correct, no pack files need to be put back. Enjoy your multiplayer game.

I have the same problem! How did you get rid of it? What website gave you the info to remove the folders?
