i cant get the grand campiagn to work, when i try load as either faction it just returns to the main menu, i run 64 bit vista fkoc 1.5 m2tw 1.2, thanku 4 any help i can play custom battles just not grand campain which i could do in the previous versions

[AlphaDelta]

Sounds like a faulty download/install. Redownload version 1.5 and install it from scratch.

Cheers

[Defender_of_the_faith]

tried fresh reinstall, and redownloaded it from the other link, still no luck in getting the campaign to work any advise wud be great, the mod is superb and playing the final instalment would be brilliant

AD, I am having the same problem. And I have tried everything. I have installed. I have uninstalled. I have installed again. I have uninstalled and reinstalled M2TW completely multiple times, including manually cleaning the registry and looking for any related hidden files that might be corrupting the install. So I really don't know what else to do. I love this mod. I can play custom battles, which is okay, but I hate missing out on the campaign, especially with the tweaks you've put in for 1.5.

Your Kingdoms is patched to 1.5 yes?

[Legio XII]

Your Kingdoms is patched to 1.5 yes?

Yes it is...I've literally tried everything I can think of and what the internet has suggested....sigh....I guess I'll try to re-install one more time.....

[AlphaDelta]

What exactly are you installing? which version of M2, which patches?

All you should really install is M2TW, patch 1.1 and patch 1.2. Then install FKoC.

Did that and now the mod wont even start?

[Legio XII]

Well, I'm gonna give this thing one more try, now that vista can go itself since I have windows 7

[Britabroad]

I´m running on Vista and also can´t get the mod to work (it crashes after the opening title page)
So I´m trying to do the above but the .cfg file won´t open and I´m sent off onto the internet to download a programme that opens .cfg files - at a cost. Is that normal or is my download ed?

[OfficerJohn]

Use notepad to open the .cfg file.
FORCE IT THROUGH - it's the right way!

I had the same problem as you, Britabroad, and this fix solved it with me!

Also, you may have a problem on vista : you won't be able to modify it. In case,copy the file on the deskopt, modify it, then replace the old.

ok have followed all the steps on here to get this working, and im still not having any luck. i have done all the troubleshooting and now when i put the disk in i get all this coding instead of a normal start up. HELP PLEASE

I have Xp but I have the same problem: when I try to begin a Campaign I come back to Desktop. I've also noticed that in the ui the strategy.sd and shared.sd are missing, can anyone try to post them, so I can try to place them and see if that's the problem?

[Captain Grimes]

does it work with other mods like stainless steel?

[gaunty14]

yes works fine, both are mod foldered

[Captain Grimes]

So you have to delete all the text and just replace it with:

[features]
mod = for_king_or_country
[video]
widescreen=0
movies = false
[game]
allusers=1


I am afraid the instructions arent entirely clear on this

[gaunty14]

no not really, my copy worked fine on Vista regardless of anything posted here, maybe its luck? [bit like archive invalidation and Fallout 3]

but I think the main thing is User Account Control

[Captain Grimes]

Oh you have to change UAC??? turn it off i mean? you have to do that with stainless steel
