I feel that there are many people who complicate life with the installer, it is better to install it manually and the problems are solved.
I agree with you, I managed to install it without launcher. So I have a request for Quintus - could you make installation instructions for those who want to install this magnificent mod manually? I do not need them since I know my folders and move and remove mods at my personal discretion, but for the new guys/gals. I know that you already in this page gave similar instructions and that this might seem like a nuisance but could you pin manual install instructions on the first page so that inexperienced bunch can have an easier path to play this beauty of a mod.
Regards from Herr Mahler.
managed to get it work with manual installation! Thank you for the help Quintus!
Herr Mahler I like listing to your music
Apart from this, the idea was to create a launcher that would enable you to simply be able to switch the mod off and play vanilla ETW or install another mod or switch between the planned 3 time periods. The installer and launcher was designed to enable mod newbies to install RotR easy.
So I'm happy with all feedback about what did wrong when trying to use the installer and can things be made easier (as I was involved in developing the installer / launcher things are always pretty easy to do for my, so I'm sorry if I do not understand your problems imediatly).
@ Goffredo great it did work!
good evening Quintus Hortensus Hortalus
or I have to put both fchier text that you put in link on your comment ????
i tried to run a campaign on empire total war on rise of republic 1.1 plus htofix and it crashed live without asking for more
yes I wanted to start a campaign with the British and it did not want and it started a campaign and it refused by spitting live without asking for his remains
So if I understand you correctly, please check if this folder is in place:
...\common\empire total war\data\campaigns\imperial_splendour
In this folder there shall be .esf, .tga and .lua files if you activated RotR via the launcher. If the files are not there check if they are in the IS_Files folder in the Empire Total War folder.
If this is the case please attach the IS_Launcher.log to your next post.
I have not activated the mod from the launcher but since mod manager
good evening Quintus Hortensus Hortalus
yes I have set up the file mentioned on your comentaire and this does not prevent the game crash after 5 rounds solo campaign
so I would have to know why your hotfix does not solve the problem of crash of the model of the republic
Ave Quintus, I have completely uninstalled everything and started from scratch. I have a question/suggestion: would it be possible to have screenshots of where all the files should be in their respective folders after the install??? Along with the additional downloads like the Status file etc. Seems like that would save a lot of typing.
I'll answer your PM after I get the game running, I can't get the SWITCH to work.

Take a look here: http://www.moddb.com/mods/imperial-s...ns-for-rotr-11
For the "Switch" button just click on it and the RotR lettering shall appear which means that everything is working.
,
The problem is the SWITCH didn't work.
Now I've moved on to a bigger problem, after a reinstall, to fix ETW that won't even start. Event viewer has given me this error code and no amount of googling solutions has produced a fix. Anyway thanks for all the replies and I'll ck back if I ever get it running again.

After installing the Patch, IS no longer launches. I don't even get a load screen. I was able to install and launch unpatched 1.1, but after installing the Patch, I can't get off the ground.
Well, wouldn't you know it.....I got ETW running by deleting the script files.........99.99% of the solutions are so simple. BUT......I cannot open the .esf file you sent me, do you have another format you can use so 7z can open it?? In the meantime I'm going to reinstall IS:ROTR.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Vanilla ETW is running but not IS. The SWITCH isn't working. I have screenshots of my install but don't know how to post them.

You don't need to open the .esf file just place it in the IS_Files folder. And again please search for a file called is-launcher.log or IS_Launcher.log. I need this file to be able why the Switch option is not working for you. It should be in the "Empire Total War" folder where also your Imperial Splendour.exe is.
