    Hi just my pennies worth,today,I did a fresh install of NTW on Steam,I put your mod 5.1 into the main NTW folder,the data folder overwrote the original one placed there,I then ran the launcher from within the Great War Folder as instructed.

    The opening sequences are of Napoleon in the smoke or mist,should there be something else in his place,ie has this worked,I can see certain WW1 game options in the menu,but on selecting an army the choice windows are blank.

    Any clues please ?

    Steam should automatically update your game to latest version. Try verifying file cache/redownloading. Make sure you have "Update automatically" set in steam properties.

    Just installed version 5.1 + 5.14 patch but mod manager (v 1.5) not showing anything even if files are there !!!

    EDIT: Ok, I had installed an incomplete version of TGW and that's why. Now I see things in the mod manager, with tons of conflicts with vanilla !

    Anyway I installed as per instructions but game crashes shortly after launching from mod manager or from the launcher.
    I decided to try with an older versions, ie TGW v 5; same thing happening. Can't understand why I can't play this, I did a fresh vanilla install of NTW just yesterday !

    I am starting to suspect that this mod isn't compatible with the latest NTW updates I installed automatically through steam...that would also explain why this forum seems dead...

    I have been attempting to install TGW 5.01 / 5.14 / 5.2 all day to no avail.

    I have tried both the Mod Manager method and the Launcher method, using 5.1 or 5.14 (OR the launcher updates to 5.2 supposedly) but I have had no luck at all thus far.

    No matter what I do, the game crashes as soon as I press the 'launch game' button. I get two 'Napoleon.exe has stopped errors'.

    I have reinstalled and verified cache. I suppose I am now at my wits end. There are no errors of note in the log.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi,

    I'm trying to install the mod for mac, but I'm having a load of difficulty. I can't use the installer, nor can I do it manually in the same way as the instruction video because I can't use the mod manager, but I have got somewhere without. I've put all the files into my Data folder, and activated them in my scripts. However, it only party works (well...barely). The background is still vanilla, but the buttons and logo on the main menu are from TGW. Also, the WW1 campaign is where it should be (though along with all the vanilla ones), and when I set a custom battle, all the units have the TGW names, with the vanilla cards. They also have the vanilla models when in the battlefield map.

    So, basically, can anyone help? Like I said, I use a mac, and it's certainly good enough to run the game (it's brand new). I had TGW on my last computer and I loved it, so I'd really appreciate any help I can get.

    Thanks

    Hey, I'm really new to Total War and this is the first mod I would ever install. This all sounds very complicated and I would like to know if there is a simple beginners guide or if this is the simplest it can get. I installed the mod but I can't get it to work, or, to be specific, the launcher can't find "Napoleon.exe".
