    Default CTD while game loads

    Alright, I have a bit of a wacky problem. DM 8.0? Runs fine, I can get the game to go, although I have not tried a battle yet.

    8.1? I get the loading screen, and then it CTDs and nothing happens.
    Please advise...

    EDIT: Wait, I may have installed DM in the wrong folder. I may be alright.

    "The dark giant lay sprawled on the sands of Tunis. Far to the north the new champion of the arena lifted his arms in triumph. The galleys passed upon the sea, the soldiers laid down their arms, cities were rebuilt and peace was everywhere welcomed. The supine giant was unconscious, but not dead. Slowly he began to raise himself upon his elbows."

    Alright, I've got it pinned down here. When I leave it in the default path, the game goes off without a hitch, and I can play Darthmod...even though it's installed in a completely wrong place!

    When I go to install it in the right place, (C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome Total War) I get literally hundreds of "Error: Could not create X file" and I have to abort. I'm a bit flummoxed here, can anyone help?

    At this point it sounds like your just better getting rid of the troubled installed and re-installing. Making sure you install the mod in the root directory of the RTW install your using.

    Are you using Vista?
    Don't take life too seriously no one gets out alive anyway.
