[Version 2.6] Download & Instructions

[mejksee]

Question to developers. What sense that you installation of it mod Blue and Gray, have adhered to system disk with an operating system. What for? Same it is inconvenient.

Mainly probally because Microsoft Windows is the leader............or maybe your asking something different.....Hope it helps .

Just got finished playing a few battles in this mod. I played one of the first versions and it really has come along way from having to manually select the files using mod manager And shokh, sorry if I misspell your name, I give you props for the opening movie, really sets the mood! The only thing that bugs me, and it is a total personal problem is the fact that 1 CSA unit can't beat 1 USA unit in a one-on-one ... But that's just my problem.... I'm about to start the campaign ... Wish me luck! and thanks for the awesome mod!

P.S.- Sorry for overuse of the faces... There is just sooo many to choose from!

Hello, I know it's been discussed on this forum time and again but I can't get it working. At first I made it all the way to the splash screen then crash. Now it can't find the empire.exe. I've tried moving the empire.exe to the ACW folder and all number of things but no luck. Any laments explanations that might get me out of this predicament? Thanks ahead of time!

Okay now I'm back to the splash screen. It teases me a bit then crashes. Anyone who has explanations or fixes, I'm all ears. Thanks!

sorry I'll post this in the tech thread. My apologies.

[Ninjaheman]

Anywhere else to post for help or is this mod dead? Looked fun to play, would be a shame if it was indeed dead. Seems to be no support for it though here or in the tech section.

Also I've updated to 1.5 but no dice. This is the new error message:

If it crash at the splash screen you have other mods in your data folder which conflict with our, move those to another folder.

[Ninjaheman]

Thanks for the response. I've not ever installed another mod to empire. I've deleted and installed ACW numerous times. Could there be perhaps some leftovers laying about and maybe re-installing empire completely and now knowing exactly where ACW goes would be the best idea?

[Primergy]

Reinstalling often doesn't help with mods, since those files aren't deleted by the Uninstaller (afaik).
Try to verify your steam cache, controll if you installed it to the right folder, make shure that you got the latest patch.

[Ninjaheman]

Great, thanks for you're time. I'm installed to 1.6 but perhaps there is another out there I've not upgraded to. I'll look into it. Thanks again for you're constant support and help.

Also, I buy all my total war games digitally. Could that have something to do with it? (I'd be furious if it did). And anyone who knows if I can delete the Gamersgate.com temporary folder after the game and mod are installed please let me know. It takes up so much hard drive space.

For instance; M2TW installed with Gamersgate, it asked me if I wanted to delete the temp files, I chose yes. Then Stainless Steel wouldn't install. So I uninstall, download again and re-install without deleting the temp files. This time, it works fine. So I'd guess it had something to do with it and I'm scared to delete those temp files but maybe now that the mod is installed I should be good to go to get rid of them and save me some valuable HDD space.

The reason I ask that last bit here and not at Gamersgate is because it seems they don't have a big forum section on mods for their games. They don't have much of anything to be honest.

If i start Empire total war after installing "ACW", will there be any changes to Empire total war or will it be vanilla version?

Empire stays vanilla, you either start the vanilal game with your ETW shortcut or ACW with our shortcut.

[shawnmohr1989]

its a good mod but one mod i'm trying to find is all 3 ranks fire at once mod like they do in blue and grey 2.6 can some one help with this

[prozac14]

HELP!!!! after I extract into data from Program files(x86)-steam-commen-empire total war-data there is no installer page. Im so confuesd im new to modding so dumb it down for me.

[shokh]

When you installed it right then you should have an shortcut on your desktop to start the launcher, if not you should be able to find it in your .../empire total war/data/ACW folder.

[SilentCal]

ive tried to do this several times now, ive tried the correct install path (maybe im wrong) gone to program files x86 so on and so forth, i clicked on data to send it to, it says data at the end its destination, ive checked my files and go in and click empire total war and then click on data and then ACW would be in there and again all i get is empire.exe is missing

i dont know what im doing wrong. im getting to the point where ive read the same instructions 5 or 6 times i know it is annoying to constantly deal with people like me but i keep getting this


i just want to try this tonight already. my ETW folder is completely vanilla now either way from other mods ive tried and mod managered in

[shokh]

On the first sight all seems correct. When you go back into the folder empire total war, can you see the file empire.exe in there?
