Hello, dear Eras Total Conquest fans.
I will write a few lines on how to launch a mod on steam:
I saw that a few of us were having problems playing this mod with steam. All around the web, there was many threats speaking about how to launch a mod in the steam version of M2TW...
But it seemed that the main difficulty of doing it was the fact that the launcher was a necessar path to play the game. Moreover, only the official mods could appear in the launcher list, and not the others that were put in the mods folder. So the only way we found to play it was to copy the conquest data in an official mod folder and to download another .bat file that would launch the mod from there.
But then, i noticed that there was a link to "stainless steel" in my launcher...
At that very moment, i understood that the question to ask was not How to launch a mod on Steam?
but How to put a mod in the launcher list?
And i found the answer right here:

The solution was in the Register...
I tested it and it worked.
Here is what i wrote for the test in my RegEdit:

And here is the result on the launcher:

Anyway, if the team members would like me to change certain wrong values, just tell me
Concerning Eras:
It shall execute the program like when you type 0 or when you click on "True conquest". So don't forget to execute the .bat file first if you have to load data.
If you have any question, just ask
