    Icon9 Is this available for Mac by any chance?

    So thankfully I've got Medieval II to work on my MacBook using WineSkin. It runs pretty damn smoothly, actually. It's a shame I can't get the Kingdoms expansion for Mac, because I am still going through Stainless Steel withdrawals (but it's okay, I've got Roma Surrectum with RTW on my MacBook to hold me over).

    So since Kingdoms doesn't look like a viable option, I started looking around for mods in this area. This one looks REALLY promising, in fact, very much like Stainless Steel (minus the westward onslaught of the Mongols' massive Golden Horde, unfortunately). However, I can't seem to get it to work. I downloaded the latest version as advertised here, but I keep getting an error message that says the following for my unarchiver:

    The contents of the file "The_Long_Road_2_4_3.exe" can not be extracted with this program.
    Seriously? What gives? I've never stumbled across this problem with my Mac Unarchiver before. Why now?

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Yours humbly,
    Roma_F-ing_Victrix

    Huh! Nevermind. I got the Unarchiver to work and extracted everything to the Medieval II folder I created under Applications. After that, however, I noticed there was no icon for launching the game! I read the "Install Uninstall Readme.txt" file and it said to run the "2.4.3_finalise.bat" file to launch the game. The only problem is my Mac apparently has no application that is able to open this file or render it.

    Any advice on that?

    Wow. This mod must be absolutely dead. No response from anyone in two weeks.
