I just put a few different skin mods for my game yesterday. Today when i went on and all the options such as single player,continue campaign are gone.

PS i also download 3 kingdoms mod yesterday but im not sure it affects RTW since its for RTW:BI

Try deleting the preferences.txt first.

[kalelord]

where is that

[irishron]

In the Rome Total War folder.

[kalelord]

I dont see it

[irishron]

If you are using Vista or 7, unhide all files and folders in Folder Options and search for preferences.txt.

[Brusilov]

If you are using Vista or 7 it will be in the 'virtual store' or 'appdata' area. Run %appdata% and follow the logical path. You need to have changed your folder options as irishron has posted.

[kalelord]

Sorry i'm new to windows 7 how do you unhide the files/folders

[irishron]

Click Start.
In the window above it, wtie folder options and click on it.
Click the view tab, and about half way down you will find it.

Were you able to start a campaign? You have to start a campaign to generate one.

[kalelord]

I did start a campaign in both RTW and RTW:BI but i think the 3 kingdoms mod deleted the games

[irishron]

Is 3 Knigdoms modfoldered? You may want to check its folder.

If you could start a campaign after you installed the mods, the file should have been generated someplace.

What do you mean modfoldered?I can start campaign in RTW but i cant really save since theres no letters.I can play RTW:BI(3 kingdoms mod) so i can save campaign of the 3 kingdoms mod
Also the 3 kingdoms folder is in chinese so i don't understand

[irishron]

Ii it were me, Id do a total uninstall of RTW/BI, deleting all trace of it and the mods, reinstall it and the mods one at a time, test each install before installing the next one to find the culprit. I would also make 3 Kingdoms last being a language neither one of us read nor understand. If it's a mod made for 1.0 or even 1.3, it may not work on 1.5.

[Brusilov]

Personally, I'd install vanilla RTW and RTW BI and get them working. Then take a copy of the game folder and copy it to another folder at the same level - call it what you want. Then install the mods to the new folder. That way if it messes up all you need to do is delete the copy folder - you should still have a clean RTW/RTW BI Install.

[kalelord]

That's what i was thinking i guess ill reinstall the game

Thank you for trying to help me.I really appreciate it.
