    All we can say is.
    Have a clean copy of your RTW /BI/ Alex.
    Then follow the instructions on the RS2 release thread.
    If you are still having problems we need screen shots, or error reports or a good detailed idea on what you are doing.
    I don't have steam but we have others here who do.
    Check your work,and someone will be will you, if you still have problems.

    [ErrorReports]
    Error1/3=You don't have Roma Surrectum II installed in the correct folder. (C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\rome total war gold)
    Error2/3=Engine: RomeTW-ALX.exe, Faction campaign: -mod:play_belgae
    Error3/3=In total: 'RomeTW-ALX.exe -mod:play_belgae -show_err -nm -movie_cam'

    That first error is the problem.
    Cap. i don't have stream, explain how you did?
    Sharpe, It must be in the folder of the game. RTW.BI or Alex
    Then the instructions of steam is clear.

    I also cant get it to launch with the launcher, I had a problem with a space in front of -mod:play_rome, which caused no campaign to appear in start game.

    I set my preferences in the launcher, and then edit the launch options in steam and it works perfect, managed to lose the fight against hannibal and script definitely added a denari to my coffers.

    Use the RTW engine, that one will work - A fix will need to be made to get Alexander to work, which will probably be duping the RTW Gold into Alexanders, and installing RS2 there... I will try it out to see if it can work

    Holy cow it worked. *Steam Alexander

    Copied Rome Total War Gold to Alexander (Steam users will know \steam\steamapps\common\rome total gold to \steam\steamapps\common\rome total war alexander)
    Copied Launch Options From Rome Total War Gold to Alexander in steam (Right click rome total war gold, launch options copy that string paste to alexanders launch options)
    Ran launcher from Alexander/Launcher to confirm preferences
    Ran in Steam

    Alexander I presume

    *The string needs to include the same faction as the one you selected in preferences (Ignore the string in the rs2 launcher its bogus for steam users)
