RTR Campaign Help

[jackofh3arts]

So I recently bought RTW Gold off Steam and installed RTR Platinum. The game started up fine and ran a historical battle, but whenever I try to start a campaign, the game just crashes to the desktop. Any ideas as to how I could solve this problem? Thanks.

Have you deleted the map.rwm file?
Its easy with the RTR PE install you get a file that deletes map.rwm
I cant remember how the file is called but it will be someting ling maprwm deleter or someting you can find it in the RTW map in programfiles.

otherwise delete the map.rwm manually

c:programfiles/activision/rome total war/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial campaign

There is a second locatio where a map rwm can be generated but I cant remember the root(at work now)

Strictly speaking this should be posted in the RTR: Platinum thread. I'd move it but my Moderator powers don't seem to be working atm. But as the man says try deleting the map.rwm file.

Also add the '-show_err' switch onto the shortcut target

"C:\Program Files\Activision\RTR 6 Gold\RomeTW.exe" -show_err -battle_editor -movie_cam

None of that worked. Any other ideas?

Usually when the game crashes right before entering the campaign it means you have not deleted the map.rwm files as said above. Are you sure you did it right? The mod comes with a batch file(campaign_map_reset.bat) that deletes those automatically if you run it. It`s in your main game folder(where the exe is). Try that and see if it works.

Also, if you`ve really added the show err comman then you should get an error message taht can help figuring out what the issue is. There wasn`t any?
