Questions about the kingdoms 1.5 patch and mods

[ash874]

i have kingdoms 1.4
and ss + third age
i now want to update to 1.5 in order to try out DLV
if i update right now will it ruin my existing mod installations?

[k/t]

I think it is recommended to patch up to 1.5 for SS and TA as well.

If DLV is mod-foldered (the way SS and TA are), you won't have problems.

Edit: Don't post the same question in two places.

No.

TWC doesn't hosts any patch i think you are talking about the sticky in the M2 general discussion forums i have only attached links to all the patches they are not hosted here.

It could be that you have enabled a virtual drive also or have 2 CD\DVD drives, it could be a conflict of Securom. Ask it here:-
Medieval II: Total War Technical Help
I think this has been answered many times.
Good Luck!

Try looking on the TWC forums as well as the CA forums. I'm sure you're not the only one with that issue.

I popped the disk out, re-inserted it, and that solved my problem.

Doublecheck that you used the correct patch. For 1.5 there are several different versions out there, European, US, for Gold Edition...

Tested that config about 2 weeks ago. Didn't have any problems. To be more specific i did try even more mods and still i could play any of them without any problems so no worries

Yup, as long as you use the correct patch for your version there shouldn't be an issue.

I was lucky to find out that my Gold Edition comes with patch 1.5 included on DVD.

Only trick was it wasn't installed automatic - had to choose it manually later on through exploring DVD. But hey, why to download something you already have

Any modfoldered mod is compatible with any other modfoldered mod, as they don't interact at all.
