    Default Help a newbi install...

    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...

    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

    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

    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

    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.

    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'.

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

    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.
