Medievil rome wont run

[dien-konig]

i downloaded Medievil Rome a few days ago, installed it but there are no new files and the shortcut had no path

Ask their forum. Mod specific questions, in my opinion, should be asked in their forum.

Hi,you mean Rome Medieval? if yes
what you mean no new files?
you must install the Mod in your game directory (Rome Total War) folder.
try to do that and tell me.

[dien-konig]

yeah, i ment Rome Medievil 2 beta, and the install directory was wrong
great mod BTW, especially since my MTW stopped working

[dien-konig]

now ive got a generric error ; could not read 'data/descr_battle_map_lightning_and_Fog_control.txt
its just CTDing now

[Lord Of The Knights]

This error happened becasue you installed the Mod in the wrong place,this file is not from RM2 and your PC cannot find it your game directory,that mean you have RM2 in the wrong place.

Good Luck!

WHERE DOES IT GO!!!?!
ive installed it in the Rome C\: -> Programme Files -> Activion -> Rome Total War

[Dr. Oza]

welll it all depends on whether you have rtw gold or normal

gold sohuld be something like the Creative Assembly/Rome total war

[dien-konig]

RTW normal
its an activision folder, no Creative Assembly folder

[Dr. Oza]

what the destination path of rm2

i think at default when it installs it looks for a Creative assembly folder (someone correct me if im wrong)

[Lord Of The Knights]

See where you have your RTW and then edit the installation path.

[dien-konig]

thats what ive done! installed it in my RTW folder under ACTIVISION
NO creative assembly folder

[Dr. Oza]

okay then, lotk can help you better than i can

[Lord Of The Knights]

Ok,install the Mod in your Driver (C) directly,you will have two folders (RomeMedievalMod and Data) copy the two folders and paste them in your game directory.its very simple.
try that and tell me.

GOOD Luck!

[dien-konig]

the that involves copying over my RTW data folder, and if thats the only way then it. N2TW will run in its own subfolder, why cant this?

[SaadHabib]

I think I was having a similar problem when I first installed the game. I don't remember what exactly I did to fix it. It might have had something to do with the destination path or something. I'll try to look into it and see if I can help in any way.

[SaadHabib]

By the way the MOD has its own folder with subfolders for the data and preferences and everything. So I don't see why it would overwrite the original game. Although I think some files did for me as well such as the music which has changed from the original RTW music to that of RM.

[dien-konig]

it does not work in any number of subfolders

[Lord Of The Knights]

its really very simple and easy,have you installed the Mod in your C: directly?
after that,two folders will appeare (RomeMedievalMod and Data) copy the two folders and paste them in your game directory.
then you need to create a shortcut of RTW icon,press properties and add this to target line :
-mod:RomeMedievalMOD -nm -show_err
your target line will be like this :"D:\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -mod:RomeMedievalMOD -nm -show_err
the word in red may change in your copmuter to C

[dien-konig]

that will ovewrite my RTW complealty!
