Thread: Start Campaign problem

    Default Start Campaign problem

    Hi, when I start a campaign with any faction, i get a ctd unspecified error thing. I installed to the exact instructions.
    I looked at my Westeros/data/world/campaign/imperial_campaign folder and it was missing files such as map_sicily.tga etc. All of them except for disasters.tga, radar_map1.tga and radar_map2.tga

    Can someone tell me if those files are meant to be missing since its a beta version and how can I get past the ctd

    thanks

    The map_faction_name files are the faction maps that are dislpayed when you choose your faction.
    The vc_map and vcs_map files are for the map in game for the victory conditions for the long game (vc) and the short game (vcs)
    They are not required for game play, just eye candy
    radar_map(s) are eye candy and not required for the running of the game
    disasters.tga is a dinosaur from RTW and has no function in medieval2 or kingdoms

    The imperial_campaign folder only requires the text files for the mod to work

    Summary: your fault lies somewhere else. Did you check your log?

    No idea what it could be, honestly. Maybe the download got corrupted.
    If you got the time, download again and re-install (after removing the original mod)
