Umm, yeah about that the box is not checked as read only, but the box isnt empty either, its coloured. And I cant UNcolour it even with administrator rights. Been trying to find what does that mean then .Make sure the SS folder isn't set to read-only.

Sounds like everything is in order, then.
I'm not sure why it's not working for you, sorry :/
Oh well, ill keep on looking for a cure.
Thanks for your help anyways.
*edit
Right, cure found and the reason was not your sub mod. So rest easy my friend and sorry for the false alarm.
The reason was the patchings up from vanilla it seems. More of the subject in 6.3 bug forums.

Permanent Arrows ain't going away even if you tick it out... Or so I think so... it's kinda annoying for English campaigns, as the rain of arrows makes my game lag....
- I'm getting CTDs at the end of battles, particularly long, large ones
- This has been happening since the start. I'm well past 100 turns and am besieging a Genoese settlement...Massilia or something like that
- I'm using this submod
- Early Era 2TPY campaign

CTDs at the end of large battles is sadly a problem that has long plagued SS.
There's two main ways of fighting it:
Turning down the graphics
Upgrading one's computer, especially the RAM and the GPU
Since most can't do the second, the first is the easiest way
Even then crashes will happen though, once in a while.

What's actually making the crashes happen though? It's right when you press the "continue" button after a battle that it IMMEDIATELY happens...if it were a graphics problem I would expect the game to crash mid-battle, which has actually happened a few times. I even waited a good minute or so after the battle ended to click the continue button as I could just "feel" it was going to crash. I don't understand why if I go into SS right now and do that battle again it wouldn't crash...I know it wouldn't, because the first battle never seems to crash.
As you can see at the end of the script, the game had finished processing things for a whole minute...then right when I clicked the continue button it immediately crashed and for no reason...there must be some specific reason why it's doing this, is what I'm suggesting. I've a good computer and even so I do turn down the graphics in battles, and throughout the last one I fought the whole combat went smoothly and without any stutters or errors...it's just hard to accept that it's an uncomprehensible graphics / processing error rather than some mutated script that enters some infinite loop and sputters to a CTD halt.

The theory is that it happens due to the game dumping large amounts of memory at once (both RAM and VRAM), which overloads the RAM and/or GPU.
I could use your help down here Meneth

Other than turning down the graphics, no.
Hello everyone,
I've just installed FTT 3.1 as explained in the forum. UAC is disabled, and it was a new MTW2 installation with SS 6.3.
The problem is that FTT makes SS_setup buggin....when i launch it first i have a message error (cant read it cause there are some chinese character), then i see the panel where you can choose the sub mods....and there isnt FTT in it.
I've already installed the fixes to SS6.3, the path installation of FTT is in MTW2/mods. Also tried to install it with compatibility mod win xp sp3 (i use windows 7 64).
Does anyone ever heard of this bug ? I've searched the forum and saw nothing.
Thank you for your time.
PS: Or maybe someone can send me the 'installed files' of FTT ? So i just have to copy them in the submod directory.

FTT is redundant with the latest fixes. Don't use / install it together with fixes 4.x.
No, its the same problem when i install it without fixes. I think the best solution is to get the "already installed" files of FTT....but i cant find them anywhere.
Could someone send them to me please ? It might be something like 300 - 400ko.
Thanks a lot.
Found the problem....FTT just doesnt work with MC compilation patch....bummer
