????
It's a great modification!

Thanks!!!

Was it resolved?

I know that loading game CTD with Insufficient video memory error message is mostly caused when you tell RTW to look for an image file that doesn't exist.
Perhapes there is error in the descr_model_strat.txt (spelling?).

My PC says there are errors in files (too many for me to actually know which one is responsible for CTD):

Downloaded data.rar patch from http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...tches-Hotfixes tried to extract to MA folder as directed, except as I find out every day, Microsoft, Windows and Bill Gates are retarded **************************, so here's what my lovely laptop tells me:

This is to do with permissions and administrator ********. I know that if I delete all these original files from MA/data before I extract the patched data then it will copy them in no problem, I just wonder if there is a better way...? Run the operation as administrator?
