1. MOD SWITCH mods DO WORK! To make them work copy all content from the mod switch folder into the main rome directory, and keep the mod switch files the same. This way the startup files for the mods will work and then they will look for related files in the mod switch, this prevents multiple CTD's (Works for RTW 1.5 not tested on BI and Alexander).
2. Turns out (on Windows 7 and above) if you already have Hamachi installed you have to use it for over the internet otherwise server wont be found. so try that if you keep getting problems.
3. ALWAYS RUN IN ADMIN to prevent a lot and i mean a lot of issues using this run it as admin! Rome doesnt like Windows Vista and 7 UAC to begin with so make sure everything is ran as admin (does not apply if you are on Windows XP)
4. *Windows 8 + Windows 8.1 + Windows 10 Only* MAKE SURE INSTALLER IS RAN AS ADMIN! otherwise the installer will extract the files and wont add them to the registry and therefore not be added to the firewall and permitted connections list, stupid as it sounds but this doesn't ask for admin rights when installing on Windows 8 or above.
Again hope i helped for some peoples having problems.
