Problem with this mod & White Label Kingdoms

[SonOfCrusader76]

I downloaded the mod and it installed OK, but when I tried to launch it, I got a message similar to this one:



Except it was asking for the original MED2GOLD (or similar) disc. I don't have Medieval II Gold, I have the original MTW2 game and the White Label Kingdoms. I suppose the beta won't play ball with the White Label version of Kingdoms? I believe all the patches have been installed - can anyone help?

That's what happens when people install pirated software their configurations are all messed up. I don't know what to tell you, there's actually quite a few people posting weird error messages, when in private conversation it turns out they're using a bootleg Med2 copy but assume something's up with the mod itself. Believe me , the mod is totally innocuous, and has no ability to alter config or executable files. It is tucked away in its own little mod folder, and doesn't hurt a fly, other than a Gallic footsoldier surrounded by a bunch of Roman infantry.

It's the White Label version of Kingdoms, not pirated software:



I've never pirated a game in my life and never will either. So taking that into account, can you help me out?

Oh I don't pirate either, so it's all good. Not sure why it doesn't work with the White Label (which sounds new to me altogether). Do other mods work?

Not sure - I reinstalled MTW2/ Kingdoms to try your mod out - I'll try a few others as well. What I don't understand is why it's asking me for the sodding MTW2 Gold disc when the Kingdoms disc is clearly in the drive.

Your not the only one having problems with the White Label version apparently http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&b...&aqi=&aql=&oq= Looks like it is an European version not totally compatible with MTW. I have a Direct to Drive purchase which also seems to give problems with some mods,but not this one.

My apologies, Sig - the problem was not with your mod. I assumed it was because I tried to launch the mod immediately after installing Kingdoms. Kingdoms itself was spewing up the same message, when I tried to play the Britannic campaign. Then I remembered that I had this issue when I first bought Kingdoms and the solution then, as it was now, was to install a different version of patch 1.5.

Now I've got it up and running, I'll pop some feedback up shortly - looks damn good so far.
