    Default Problems with the shortcut-path...

    Title changed to a more civil and fitting one (and spamming smiley's removed)/DV

    This mod is extreamly stressful, you make it soo confusing on how to install it, i installed it (using Rome Total War Gold) and i put the correct shortcut on the Desktop but it isnt showing up, then i look at instructions and it doesn't say which line you should change, so i tried the Target and Path line and changed it to the Gold Location and it still said it wasn't their, like cmon try to make your damn instructions more user friendly like the makers of medieval rome total war, not all of us know what the hell you are talking about.

    You are welcome, but:

    First of all, there is a stickied thread for such issues. Second, the description for changing the shortcut-path is to find at two places:
    - the stickied thread 'Install Issues' (edit: i just simplified the info there)
    - the stickied thread 'Release ...' with hints where you can find the detailled instructions, and additional the info that you can send a shortcut to desktop from the RTW exe plus the needed mod-path that must be added.

    Anyway, please avoid it to talk in the "we"-form. If your rant would be general valid, then we would have x-hundred of such problem-posts.
    A bit more civil posting behaviour (changed slightly your post) would provide a better base to help you.

    Perhaps, the next release version 1.0 will have an auto-process for the desktop-shortcut production. Until this, i please you to read the accurate instructions as anybody else ... and if it won't work, then you would have to give details where the problem for you stays.

    The easiest way to get help: if you post your install-location of the chivalry modfolder, then we can give you the shortcut-path

    Mod-Newbies have sometimes a problem, that's normal.
