    Did you download it before or after KK uploaded the fixed version? If you have the earlier version, it is missing some files.

    If you have the later version, then i guess you could try to remove 5.0, install it again and then install 5.1.

    Have you tried deleting any remaining files or folders.

    Maybe, just maybe, that's doing it. Somehow.

    I thought the same, as it seems that if you use the uninstall program, it leaves some folders in.

    So, maybe removing SS manually and re-installing after that?

    That's why i said it was a stupid question

    I have been away for a while, so i didn't know whether you've played 5.0 or not

    Good luck with re-install, hope it works!

    He can't have played 5.0 without kingdoms.
    Anyways, the mod should be directed to e.g. "c:/program files/sega/medieval 2/" and not the 5.0 stainless steel data folder.

    When I direct it there I get the ctd when I try to start the game
    Anyway the big re-installation is on its way, hopefully it will work

    same trouble here, mate ...had 5.0 , deleted the mod files & instaled 5.1b - now it CTD ...why? I believe it's because 5.1b has no batch file & makes no proper shortcut ... but I'm open to sugestions

    RichiN: Download patch 5.1b and DON'T istall it in \mods\stainless_steel\data foler. Just install it in your normal m2:tw folder (for example c:\games\sega\medieval2:TotalWar). The patch will then automatically install in the mods\stainless_steel folder, and won't owerwrite any vanilla files (so to speak, the path is inlcuded in the patch).
