Hello Hawk!
Good job with the fix, it worked perfectly on my modded rtw. One thing only: I can't get my rtw to run full screen, it's always in window mode. Any ideas?

Hello Hawk,
Thanks for the detailed walkthrough! I'm still having problems though. I followed everything, until the part about adding -nm -ne to the shortcut, or exe file. I was able to add it to the shortcut, but couldn't figure out how to do it in the program folder itself. When I click to launch, it asks if I want to allow it to make changes and then it doesn't do anything. Same when launching from steam. I did the codec, and the large address aware things as well. Let me know what I'm missing.
I tried the fix on Rome Total War Anthology, but it didn't work. Not sure why.
Help!!! I did all this, but I still cannot play! It's killing me! This game is so much fun!
Thanks alot! It works now.
Thanks HawkDreams. Downloaded Rome Total War collection today, your fix worked fine for RTW and Alexander but did not know how to access Barbarian Invasion preferences to change the settings for that expansion, any ideas?
Sorted! followed step 4 and now Barbarian Invasion works, thanks again.
HawkDreams, may God bless you, doing step by step works fine.
Hi Hawk
I followed your instructions to the letter including downloading the supplied files. No joy; any other ideas?
Thanks
Hey there i did everything you said in that post but it still doesnt work for me
Thank you, worked on Win10 for me great! (Rome disc version)
I own a physical non-steam copy,
I followed all steps except step 3. As the d3dx9_XX files do not exist in my folder?
Am I missing something, or is this a steam-related process.
Could you upload those files as well into the thread?
hey, i did all your steps but still nothing, i have the old disc version of rome total war and nothing will start up at all
Thankyou Hawk, my CD version would not work on windows 10 and neither would the clean install would work off of steam, thank you for giving people like me advice on how to fix these problems
Thank You For solve And Sharing
[QUOTE=HawkDreams;14572232]With the impending release of Windows 10, Rome has an issue with starting after being installed clean.
