Can't start: mss32.dll not found

**Parzival2211** · April 20, 2011, 05:41 AM

Hi,

I just installed the mod, followed the instructions, but can't start it. I get the error message:

mss32.dll not found

How can I fix the problem?

Thanks a lot.

First, Check that you have installed the mod in the right folder. Then if it's not the problem, try to re-install RTW and the mod. That's the best advice I could give to you.

Yeah, thanks, guess, I'll try that - when I am back from Easter break.

Psst another unorthodox advice: Just go to Google then type mss32.dll and you can find a place to download that file freely!

Then just take it and place the file in your RTW folder

Great. thanks. I will try that. Place it in the RTW folder or the LotR folder?

In your PC computer or right in RTW folder.

no, then it would say another missing file. and another. because non of the mod's files are in the right direction, because it is a wrong installation path issue. reinstall the mod showing your rome total war folder.

Now, it's working. Wow, I am amazed. You guys are a bunch of white wizards for making this mod!

Ay mss32.dll is the exception mate. Normally there're 2 reasons for the miss of these kind of files

1.You created a new folder of RTW but you forgot to copy it from original game
2.Your window version lack it

This problem accused with some other games too
