Mundus Magnus as Imperial Campaign

[GaivsSejanvs]

Hello all!
I' ve working on my mod...
And I need the Mundus Magnus Map as Imperial Campaign.
I've find only the MM as a Provincial Campaign, yet.
Can somebody Help?
Thanks!

PS: I have the RTW Vanilla!!

Just put all the relevant files into the imperial campaign folder, and rename the corresponding text files accordingly, and you should probably do this in a mod folder as opposed to your main install folder.

[GaivsSejanvs]

It's doesn't working!!
I've copy the Files, start the game... it's doesn't work?

Why?

[Squid]

Did you change the name of the campaign in descr_stat to imperial_campaign?
Did you change the imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlements.txt file to refer to the regions & settlements in the mundus campaign?
Did you delete the map.rwm file?
Do you have -show_err on your command line to possibly help with errors?

[GaivsSejanvs]

Ehm, no...

And what's with the base folder?

[Squid]

The files in there should also be replaced by their corresponding ones in the provincial campaign folder.

[GaivsSejanvs]

Thanks!
And it sould be worked, now?

[Squid]

In theory, as long as everything was done correctly.

[GaivsSejanvs]

It's working now!!!

Yeah thanks!!

I am trying to do the same thing that GaivsSejanvs did as discussed in this thread except I'm trying to use Alex.exe rather than RTW.exe. Hence, I am using a Alexander folder rather than a Imperial Campaign folder. Also, rather than using imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt I am using alexander_regions_and_settlement_names.txt. Other than that I've done everything as described by Squid above. However, rather than getting a CTD like GaivsSejanvs was getting I am getting a KTM. Then when I exit out of the game I get the following strange error:


Line 925 is the romans_julii settlement at Etruria, the first settlement listed in descr_strat. It works fine in the provincial version of this mod, but gives me this strange error when I try to use Imperial. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this strange error?

Try it with imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt and see what happens.

[CPT Worsham]

Try it with imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt and see what happens.

Boristus,

I did that and used -noalexander and that did the trick. I still don't understand how that made it work, but at least it is working now. Thanks man you rock!

I just wanted to say to all, that I have 3 mods, all using MM as the Imperial or Main Campain. When using RomeTW-ALX.exe, the -noalexander switch is what I used to get things working for mods of RomeTW v1.5. You can use the imperial_campaign folder, as other posters mentioned above.

I need help with Mundus Magnus. I've tried to install it to my main RTW folder, but whenever I start a provincial campaign, the game crashes. So I made a bunch of copies of the RTW, and installed v1.2 for patch 1.5 to 1 of them and it worked. The problem I'm having now is that I can't add extra units to the game. I've tried adding a unit, but the game crashes in Custom battle, halfway thru the loading bar for custom battles. It's quite ridiculous, because that same unit I used on my old computer, but back then I had Windows XP. My new pc runs on Windows 7. Do any of you guys think that that might be the problem? Any help or advice would be apreciated.

[CPT Worsham]

Are you using show_error?

[LiquidSantanero]

Ehh, I can't find the shortcut button/tab in properties when I right click on the Rome exe button. I'll reinstall the Gold Edition...again. I left the main folder untouched and used the copies I made for modding the campaign. The only thing I could think of is some sort of firewall or security program that's preventing the file from being modified.
Btw, thanks for the reply. Didn't think I would get one so soon.

[LiquidSantanero]

About the not finding shortcut tab in properties, well I've forgot to mention that I couldn't find it in the copy folders, But it's there in the main folder and desktop. My mistake. about show_er, do I have to write it like this: -show_err" ? I forgot how it works. Can't remember in which tutorial I read it.

[CPT Worsham]

Here is the way I have mine set up to work with this map. "C:\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW-ALX.exe" -noalexander -nm -show_err -mod:RTWMOD

[CPT Worsham]

I'm not sure if it is related to your crash or not, but if you are using Windows 7 you need to be sure to install your RTW files some where other than in the programs folders. If your installation is in the programs folders Windows 7 won't allow you to modify your game.

[LiquidSantanero]

Mine is set in the program files (x86). But even there I get the crash, well not entirely true. Some of the versions of MM just reboot back to faction select screen. It could be a security software problem. I just don't know. I've uninstalled the game and I'll reinstall it again. This time I'll use the 1.5 patch and see what happens. Even though it's not necessary.
