Hazeslayer,

Firstly welcome to SS forum.

I take it you have installed at least one campaign from Kingdoms

When you install SS you need to Install 6.0 Pt1(x2), Pt2(x2), Patch 6.1(x2), leave all tickboxes unchecked other than Permanent Arrows, if you want that. Then install 6.2(x2), everything done twice, as installer can miss things.

Hope this helps

so i need to install everything twice before and thanks for the welcome

[hazeslayer]

ive tried what you suggested and i get the same problem is it worth reinstalling my mtw2 and kingdoms and trying again?

Seems like you installed in the wrong directory, to me. But I'm not somebody who knows a lot of log. Can you search (Ctrl + F) for other errors (simply type error )
