    You could try installing mod in empty file then copy pasting them to rome total war file

    Hi guys

    I am having the exact same problem.

    I have Windows XP SP3 (patched with latest windows updates), using RTW Gold Edition (patched to 1.5), no steam.
    My install path is: E:/Games/The Creative assembly/Rome - Total War.

    I have reinstalled the mod, and tried copying it from a different installed folder, but no joy.

    Has anyone been able to make any progress on this error?

    I can run the game using the batch launcher, but it would just be nice being able to use the launcher.

    One other thing, since I am using the batch file to start the game, which files do i need to copy to get the post-marian roman general? I can see it is in the "Important_stuff" folder, but do I only have to copy the descr_character.txt file into the "Data" folder in the "Play_Roman" folder, or are there other files I need as well?

    Thanks in advance.

    OK:

    you erase or move the "sounds" file in the launcher folder, the launcher will start, you'll get two errors about missing sound files, just click past them and everything else works fine.
    try that :]

    OK, so I have made a new launcher now that dont give the missing sound files errors either. I dont now how to upload it here though...

    edit: how to do it: I downloaded the freeware program autolt v3 to check the script and removed the 6 lines there that the program complained about, and then compiled a new exe. I'm not a programmer or anything..so if i can do it anyone can. just a tip

    here is the files, replace those in the launcher folder whith this ones instead, and voila no error message

    edit: I just realized for this fix to work requires that you HAVE the sounds in the launcher folder
