Help a newbi install...

[TKainZero]

OK...
I HAVE to play this mod after seeing it.

Now, i have RTR Platinum installed on my PC.

Do i need to have a clean version installed to install this new mod?
If so, do i need to deleate RTR?
Can i install a new copy WITHOUT deleating RTR already...


AND, this instaltion process seems duanting.. 5 parts... yikes...

[TKainZero]

Ive downloaded the files. And the sprites.

But, I need to keep my copy off RTRPlatinum on my CPU.
I play LAN with my roomates, and need to keep it.

How can i install this IN ADDITION to RTR?

I am awaiting th response of the Great TWCenter team

[PythoR]

Erm.. would have been better to copy RTW before installing RTR. Because RTR modifies all the RTW data, so you can't install R:M in that specific folder.

This is what I do:

I always have 1 clean RTW. If I download a new mod, I first copy the clean RTW, and then install the mod in one of my clean RTW's, so I always keep 1 clean RTW

[TKainZero]

Well... i do not have a clean copy of RTW...

am i screwed...

or ill check to see if there is a clean copy. The vahnilla icon is still there...

I want to play medevil rome so bad...
****

Ok, i might have a clean copy... pasteing...
and looking for a stick drive... 440mb+

[TKainZero]

damm... i only have a 184 mb one... going to have to use the 5 part download...
***
5 part download is deadlink... DAMM...

can i transfer file from Mac to PC thru some kind of cable???

[TKainZero]

Ah HA...

I have found a Stick drive with stace...

Lets see if this RTW is clean...

I had several file of it... so... here goes nada...

[Lord Of The Knights]

The best way is to install a new clean RTW (copy) in another place in your computer without deleting your current RTW.

and wait,it's 440MB compressed,and 700MB after your extract the .rars

Good Luck

[TKainZero]

Cannot install a NEW version of RTW with RTR already installed...

The option is greyed out, and when trying to access the setup file, it only gives option to repair or remove.

[Lord Of The Knights]

Ok,remove RTW and reinstall it again and in another place,as you don't need your current RTW.

[TKainZero]

OK

RTR gone

RM traces gone

Old copy of RTW alxander, gone


Install new copy now.

Will have new copy. WIll play test it, To see the old Vahnilla
Then i will make SEVERAL copies of it.
Save on as the original
Make a copy to put RTR platunum on there

And a New one for RM


Also, i have RTW GOLD, with barbarin invasion. Does the 1.5 patch come on the disc with gold?

[TKainZero]

I got an error when installing the first disc... going to try again...

---


Gah!!!

Heres what the error says:

Feature: Rome Total War Data
Componnent: Data
File: D:\data2.cab
Error: Data.error (cyclic redundancy check)


WHat the BLANK does that mean... am i scewed... Did i just deleate my RTR for nothing...

[TKainZero]

OK...

We are into day 3 of this...

I have RTW as a clean install, and several copies...

RTR is intalled on a clean copy, and NO PROBLEMS...

Stll no luck with RM... Still trying...
Ive probaly spent 10+ hours messing with this now...

[TKainZero]

God Less who made this mod..

[SaadHabib]

Ah, that just makes me want to play this game again so badly. I can't get mine to work any more.

[Lord Of The Knights]

Why saad? what is the problem?

[SaadHabib]

I start the game and the beginning screen starts, but then it returns me to desktop with the following error:

Script Error in RomeMedievalMOD/data/export_descr_unit.txt, at line 4359, column 31.
Could not find soldier battle model for unit type 'merc elephants'.

[demoman_chaos]

Most likley just need to reinstall. Back up your saves before doing so.
You should be good after that.

[Lord Of The Knights]

you just need the Latest HotFix Saad.

[SaadHabib]

I think I must be doing something wrong in the copying of the files. I reinstalled the game after formatting my PC and the only MOD I installed was this one. But it wouldn't work. And I've tried the latest hotfix too and that didn't work.

[JGL]

does this mod use mod switch?, so that can i still play vanilla rome if i install this mod
