You have to login Steam manually first and then start ACW. If you miss it and receive a CTD then you have to reboot before trying again.

This does not work for me. If I launch the game from my steam account it will say it is the Civil War, but the factions are all European. If I log in to steam and leave it on and then use the Civil War start up icon the campaign crashes after the first battle.

Ok, i checked the script folder the uniheader file was not there. I put the .txt file into the folder and try to start a new campaign and still got a crash. Here is the user script.....

mod bg_art.pack;
mod bg_core.pack;
mod bg_db.pack;
mod bg_models.pack;
mod bg_music.pack;
mod bg_camp_wpath.pack;
mod bg_us_wpath.pack;

I'm having the same problem as Saxon

[ItalianBadger]

also, I troubleshooted the application and it detected and error saying: Incompatible Application, and when i put my mouse it captions: ACW3 is incompatible.

Click accept and see if it works. This may be because of other mods you may have installed.

For Saxon and JOPAKE and possibly ItalianBadger, You need to restart your computer and launch steam BEFORE you start the launcher. Then you should no longer have the crash on the loading screen.

Hi

Si funciona, pero a veces cuando estoy jugando batallas y/o campaña, el juego se me tilda, ese cartel tendrá algo que ver con el problema?
Y te comento que tenía un mod instalado, pero lo desinstale correctamente
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If it works, but sometimes when I'm playing battles and / or campaign, the game is branded me, that sign will have something to do with the problem?
And I commented that I had a mod installed, uninstall it properly but

[Carbonox Infernox]

I just opened ACW, closed it, selected vanilla ready, opened DMUC, reset scripts, launched DMUC, attempted to load a campaign and CTD . I guess it must be darth mod, but still... never had this issue before (or rather, i had CTD's before, but resetting the scripts solved it).

[bigstone]

I installed mod fine and I can load up the mod launcher fine, but when i click on the CS or US my game crashes and when I exit it I set it as ACW ready. Then i loaded up my ETW w/ steam and i got the mod backround and music but the vanilla game..... please help!!!

Hi I am experiencing the same thing as well.... Please help.... What Empire Total War Patch do we need?

[ItalianBadger]

[gvales]

Opps...hit enter before I typed wtf was going on......that error above comes up everytime I start the game, but it runs (besides the crashes). Also, when generals show up, I cant see them in the line ups to recruit them.

thats my log plsssss help

[husserlTW]

Before post read first the KNOWN ISSUES first. Some problems cannot be solved without a fix, so please wait for a few hours.

Also read carefully the manuals and the instructions please...

You have to login Steam first and then stat any mod that uses a launcher. If you miss it and you get a CTD you have to reboot before try again.

i keep crashing whenever i select witch faction i want to play as a faction i get application load error 5 its the same error i always got for the 2.6 version of the mod

--------------------------
Current non vanilla files in data folder:
Common.dll
unit_pack_compatibility_project_v5_9.pack
unit_pack_compatibility_project_v6_3.pack

Remove the above files from data folder and then try again as US.

[husserlTW]

Do you login Steam first before starting DMUC launcher? If you miss it and you get a CTD you have to reboot before try again.

[husserlTW]

Opps...hit enter before I typed wtf was going on......that error above comes up everytime I start the game, but it runs (besides the crashes). Also, when generals show up, I cant see them in the line ups to recruit them.

Read the KNOWN ISSUES please before posting.

If I launch the game from my steam account it will say it is the Civil War, but the factions are all European. If I log in to steam and leave it on and then use the Civil War start up icon the campaign crashes after the first battle.

Though I have not anything to say about your problem, the second way is the right one and not the first.

[Theotian]

same crash
