Install the 2.5 fixes and run ss_setup.exe and see if that resolves your issue.
Looks like somehow the game variants got mixed up, this is either due to wrong/partial patching, never running ss_setup.exe or due to UAC screwing with your install.

Hi thanks for the reply i installed it still the same problem well if i remember right the patching has a problem how did you patch your Medieval 2 Kingdoms ? What order.

Okay so im going to reinstall the game now so i install SS 6.3 and then this fix correct ?
Plus the sub mods that are in the option menu are they within the mod SS 6.3 torrent file are they included ?

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks for the reply.

Before you reinstall, apply the patch per instructions

Known bugfixes can be found in Bug Reports for 6.3
and are available as a packaged 7-zip file Fixes 2_5.7z for manual application.
The files should be moved / extracted into the root folder where you installed SS6.3.
Normally this would be Medieval II Total War\mods\ (not Medieval II Total War\mods\SS6.3)
Then start the game with ss_setup.exe once and (re)select your (old) campaign options.

That might really be all thats needed.

Also do you have UAC off?

Thats really up to you. I strongly recommend installing the Fixes 2_5.7z before hunting for submods..

Hey what are the 2TPY campaigns ?

The 2 TPY campaigns have two turns per calendar year instead of only 1. This makes the game move at a slower pace, and also makes the army movement a bit more realistic. It also avoids one of the bugs in 6.3.
More details on 2TP can be found in the 2 TPY Project thread. Link in my signature.
