Im a newb who would like some help...

[Hounf of Culan]

Ok, so I just downloaded Stainless Steel 3.2, first mod I've ever downloaded, and I see it in the Medieval2 folder but I have absolutely no clue as how to put it in the right folder or whatever and play it. If someone could tell me I would appreciate it alot.

[Imperator_Maximus]

the SS folder is supposed to be just in the Medieval 2 Total War folder, no further than that. Than if you haven't done so, cut and paste the cfg and bat file into the Medieval 2 Total War folder. Double click the bat file and it should start up.

Pardon my newbishness, but do you mean click the file called
Launch_Stainless_Steel
MS-DOS Batch File
1 kb
cuz when I double click that file a window opens for a fraction of a second but also closes within that same fraction of a second. Or am I wrong and is it some file within the
Stainless_Steel
folder itself, if so could you, or anyone else, please name that file for me?

bump, someone please help

Alright nvm I'm able to launch it, but now when I do launch it starts up the screen and then after like 2 seconds it goes to desktop before I get to the menu or anything. The system log says this

I don't know much about SS, but perhaps you don't have patch 1.2 of the game?

[Axe-Battler]

I already talked to him through pm, he got it to work.

This thread can be closed.

Anyway, thanks for the assisstance, ramtha!
