    Default i cant start it -not in the start menu

    just downloaded and installed. It s not in the start menu (Windows XP service pack 2) and also doubleclicking on the bat file doesnt help.
    Do i have to install it into the mtw-root directory. I did it both ways but it doesnt help.
    thanks for any help

    The missing shortcuts is a bug with the installer.

    It has to be installed into the root.
    For example,
    C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War

    Execute it by running
    C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\The_Long_Road.bat

    I seem to be having a similar problem, I run the installer and extract into my C:/Program Files/Sega/Medieval II Total War/ directory but i cannot seem to run TLR. There is no Long Road.bat file and the when I run the normal MTWII it appears to have no connection whatsoever with the mod, what am i doing wrong?

    I believe you downloaded and installed ONLY the Addon.

    There are two parts. You didn't download the main part.

    You only need 1 zip file TLR_v1.9.8

    I'm not sure what the other one your talking about is.

    You should just be able to unzip to C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War and run it as you described.
