!!! >> Rome Multiplayer Campaign (!) Mod / Client + Server (RMC) << !!!

[Willowran]

I cannot help you. I do not know anything about the original program.

the RomeTW.exe program is Rome:Total War itself, but i am not sure why it would be telling you to open it... the file can be found in my computer>c drive>program files (maybe program files x86)>Activision/The Creative Assembly>Rome:Total War

Willowran, i hope you can help me but every time i try to open up the client start it always says awendung lauft bereits which translates to application already running, even when i close everything it still says it. Please help if you can.

[Willowran]

I cannot help with the mod/client + server (RMC), as i have no idea how that works. However, i havea different way to allow for multiplayer campaigns, which does work in almost every case. I would suggest uninstalling the client, and looking at my post at the top of this page to worka round your issue.

I am assuming, based on translation, that your computer is not english-made? Does it have the task manager, accessed by hitting control-alt-delete simultaneously? First go there and check the applications tab, and make sure they are all closed. Second, go to the "processes" tab. Be careful with these, as some should NOT be closed. Look for any application related to RTW, or whichever application is supposedly still running. If you see any, end them. However, i cannot think of any processes that work with RTW...

If you are using the mod posted on the first page of the thread, i cannot help you beyond the above, as, again, i do not have that mod and have no idea how it works.

if you like, i could set it all up for you: you could tell me which factions you want in the multiplayer campaign, and i can create the files you need, and tell you where they need to go, and how to use them.

Which version of RTW do you have? Is it in english, or a forgien (for me) language?

Please get back to me, and we can work out a solution together.

First off, my laptop is English (it's a Toshiba) but for some reason that part was in German. You might not be able to help me since I'm using the Multiplayer Mod. But I uninstalled everything and closed everything related to it, and still when i launch the Client it says application already running. Also, RTW is in English.

[Willowran]

Yes... i cannot help you with the client. However, as i said, i have a different multiplayer campaign mod you coudl always use instead... Have you read throughout this thread? have you read any possible ''readme''s?

oops. lemme see...

Ohhhh! ok. MorsPyro is telling you to go to your "Rome: Total War" folder, then "saves" and rename the file (which, in german would be something like) "schnelle sparen.sav" to "quicksave.sav".

If the saves folder is empty, then that is an entirely different problem which i cannot help you with.

If the file transfer will not take place, you can always pull the save file from your singleplayer version of RTW and email it to your buddy...it should work the same way?

Hoppla. Lemme sehen ...

Ohhhh! ok. MorsPyro sagt Ihnen, Ihre go "Rome: Total War"-Ordner, dann "speichert" und benennen Sie die Datei "Schnelle sparen.sav" auf "quicksave.sav" (die, auf Deutsch etwa so aussehen würde).

Wenn die Saves Ordner leer ist, dann ist das ein ganz anderes Problem, das ich nicht helfen, können Sie mit.

Wenn die Datei-Übertragung nicht stattfinden wird, kann man immer ziehen die save-Datei von Ihrem Singleplayer-Version von RTW und mailen Sie es in Ihre Freundesliste auf ... Es sollte die gleiche Art und Weise zu arbeiten?

does this help?

Hello

Me and a friend of mine have tried to do the MP campaign.Unfortunately we couldn't start the game. We both connected to the server, when the server starts only his RTW starts up, mine does not.

Extra info:

- We have the same game version
- We have tried Hamachi as well
- Connection is not a problem, only the startup of RTW.exe

please help

[Willowran]

I have no clue, sorry.

Does this multiplayer have battles ?
On the battle field not just skip ?

[Willowran]

The multiplayer campaign mod's (i know of mine, and am PRETTY sure about the other) CAN do battlemap.

However, if you wanted to battlemap a battle then you would always be facing the AI, it would NOT a human player-vs-player battle. As such, if you play such a cmapaign i suggest you implement a "only autoresolve vs a human player" rule, else things will always be in the favour of the attacker.

[Hannibal Baca]

Hmm,maybe to play curstoms and then dissmis cearten amount of units ....

[complete noob:(]

How would you compensate for experience earned? And what about units who have been slightly injured? It just doesn't make much sense to fight battles against the human-controlled factions, because attackers will always have advantage

[Willowran]

You could always save the game, set up multiplayer custom battle where you generalised the experience, and unit counts, and fought each battle like that.... but it seems like a waste of time, in most cases...

your campaign, your rules. As a general statement... complete has the right of it.

That sis not a bug. That is how it works. Your friend could load the "quicksave" file, and it would load to your turn, or you could gast the "quicksave" from your friend and it would load to your turn.

I do not have Rome: Total War on steam, and that's the only thing i oculd see that would be a glitch. Sorry.

No skype for me. What is the error?

[gkaikov]

Rome total war is still alive. I play with my brother with armagedon's client and server. Everything is fine. The only problem is that we cant see the others screenshots.
1) Where i can find the windows username and password?
2) Is there a posibility having only username and not a password?
3) What is the "share dir name"

I think that these three are required, and also enable networking and players screen for the screenshots.
Thanks!

I think that "enable networking and players screen" is required for the screenshots but it doesnt seems to work.
If anynone knows step by step what i have to do...
Thanks anyway!

My friend finally bought RTW again on steam which let us play again!

ANSWERS:
The guide on page 7 is pretty complete, so try to use that.
IF YOU HAVE STEAM, what helped me and my friend to play is back up .exe of the rtw in steam folder and replacing it with a crack. Think about it logically, makes sense?
