Full patch notes for upcoming title update - Saints and Heroes DLC out today! (26.07.2012)

[Slaists]

Dunno. Is it a breakthrough (for the AI as of the latest patch) or a glitch. I was facing [attacking] 3 militia units of AI (in a campaign) with a fully army of spear levy and 2 parrot guns. I had to WORK my ass off maneuvering to get to the militia [who were taking proper cover on a wooded hill]... whereas previously the AI would just charge my line if faced with artillery. If this is consistent: great work CA!

Typical of CA to think that the average gamer is a computer guru.
They make a patch, we're supposed to read 1000 tech pages and perform mantainance checks and fixes.

The guys like me who have CTD right at the splash screen might want to try this in particular:

12) Stuck on Preparing to launch Shogun 2
Go to the following directory:
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\total war shogun 2\redist
Here you will find these files:

---vcredist_x86_90.exe
---vcredist_x86.exe
---vcredist_x86-sp1.exe

Install them in the above order, reboot, and play.

Rebooting...

EDIT: All right, CA, period.

Just got back from 2 months of college, booted this up and BAM! the AI is even smarter than it was before. Nothing a good Banzai charge couldn't fix but it was nice to see.

Uninstalled, reinstalled, CTD at the loading screen.
Any words yet?

The exception says it's trying to read or write to something that isn't there.

Could be memory or a file like a mod pack that doesn't work.

Have you tried removing your mod files from you data folder if you have any?

Also try deleting your user script.

Man I actually deleted and redownloaded the whole game...
It didn't work so, no, it's not mod related.

Any other tips?

Did you delete incredibar or other types of spam/buggy software? Or have you deleted your user and prefrences script?

is this compatible with FoTS?

The DLC adds units to Shogun 2 so it has nothing to do with Fots.
