I'm happy that it worked for you. It is weird that menu bar doesn't show.
Have you tried going into Virtual Store and deleting the whole Medieval II Total War folder?
Don't worry, it won't delete the actual game, it is only a backup folder for info and savegame for your m2tw.

Same trouble here, and absolutely no way to fix it in a satisfying way. However it is still a beta release, and we got to respect his choice to release it in his mother tongue primarily. So lets wait for stable release.

Re: With Fire and Sword 2 (Огнем и Мечом (II) 2: Total War ) !!!!RELEASE!!!! v 0.9.2 BETA
This is a little weird to explain but I've got a problem that didn't happen before. For some reason the game crashes when I click on the grand campaign button. As I stated before, this didn't happen at the beginning so I can still play my Swedish, Russian and Brandenburg saves.
Also, the English translations in really incomplete, basically it's just the menu that's translated. I don't know if there's been a newer version released but I think this is the one.

OK deleted all the bin files and tried again, only to realize that the "Ghost" HUD only appears after you click anywhere on the real HUD, is there a fix?
