Seeing that the executable got merged this might actually work even without the kingdom campaigns installed. Give it a try.What I found so far is I should copy my medieval.exe and rename it to kingdoms.
Ok I'll install as instructed in this thread then do the renaming trick.
Alright! So I installed 6.3, after installation it said it couldn't find kingdoms.exe so I did the copy and rename trick, then patched it to 6.4 and it seems to work perfectly so far! Was able to start a campaign!
Ran into some CTDs but that error messsage mentioned graphics, turns out my Nvidia Control Panel thought medieval2 wasn't worth using the dedicated GPU and instead set it to use the Internal GPU (Intel HD 3000) it was on autoselect.
Taught the Control Panel some respect by setting both the mediaval2 and kingdoms .exe files to use the Nvidia card and seems to work fine now.
So yeah, seems to work without having the kingdoms expansion, in the steam version
Does the mod use any Kingdoms assets which it then wouldn't be able to find further down a campaign? I'd hate to play one only to have it interrupted half way or something.
Thanks for your help so far!
All the kingdom 'assets' are provided by the mod, with the disk version the important thing is the different executable which isn't a problem with Steam apparently. The merger of the executables however makes is impossible to play mods on Steam that are based on the old medieval2 executable - these mods require to be made compatible with so called 'kingdom' mods (like SS is).
Alright thanks! Gonna start my campaign then Crusader States seem really interesting, although it's quite jarring to start of a campaign with negative income
Hi! It's my first message.
So here is the thing. I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong, if there is something I don't understand, or if I just have to wait more, but I got the feeling that something isn't working fine. I started an early campaign as Venice. I'm currently at turn 34. I did my first crusade around turn 10. One general took Alexandria. The other two also crusaded the same turn I captured the city. That should be 85 points towards a St. John's Chapter House. Also, from turn 14 onwards, my >5 chivalrous general was back in Venice, granting more points each turn.
Turn 25 and I still didn't get an offer for a St. John's Chapter House, although by that point I should have way more points than it actually needs to trigger, and I have received offers for other guilds, such as merchants, theologians and thiefs. At turn 29 I decide to go on another crusade. At turn 33, before capturing Alexandria once more, I make everyone of my generals, around 10, join to it. By this point I should have around 400 points towards the St. John's Chapter House. But at turn 34 I still don't get an offer. Neither do at turn 35, 36, 37... What's happening?
Thanks.
Hi, Navajo. I'm playing in Spanish, so I'm not really sure how it is in English. Hm... "Absolutely worthy of trust", maybe? I think there are no more levels above this. I must say yesterday, after searching a lot, I found another message in this forum that may have the key for my problem: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...1#post14892373
But I don't know if it still works like that or if it has changed. So, as Venice faction, my best bet would be to capture Iraklion and upgrade it to a city? I will never receive an offer for it in the city of Venice?
Thanks!
P.S. I might have asked for an answer in the wrong thread. Sorry if that was the case.
Does basic campaign difficulty (eg. very hard) interfere with script such as Savage AI? What i want to say is if i turn on Gracul AI and easy difficulty, will AI be very agressive due to script and negate easy difficulty?
hey guys i need some help with Stainless Steel 6.4. i currently have the steam version of M2TW+ Kingdoms. i have installed the mod and it works until i go to the battle map. if i simulate through the battles the campaign seems to work fine. but whenever i have a battle it crashes at the end of the loading screen with either a fatal graphics error or an unknown error. i installed everything as an administrator, turned of UAC, tried changing the name to a kingdoms folder (ie americas). any ideas?
hey guys, can anyone help me? I've downloaded both 6.3 and 6.4 downloads and installed both and im having this message show when i try and run ss... "unable to locate kingdoms.exe. Is Kingdoms.exe in your MTW2 folder?"
I have no idea what this means
Have you checked the path to your mod? Looks like it ended up in the wrong directory. Otherwise I would think you are using steam which might need this method.
Hey, I'm having a problem with my Crusader States Campaign, the game will often crash while a battle is being loaded with the following message:
Medieval 2: Total War encountered an unspecified error and will now exit.
That's also all the system.log.txt says, any ideas how I can resolve this?
Hi guys, I've just installed medieval 2 from steam, installed 6.3 and 6.4 into the mods folder and I am unable to run the game. I renamed the medieval2 application to kingdoms then I get failed to start game (missing executables). I am not sure what to do, I only have the medieval2 app, if I run it as it is I can play normal medieval 2. Does anyone know why? I tried the renaming thing mentioned above but still get the pop up problem. Should I of done it before I patched 6.4?
Hey all. Haven't logged in since 2011. Wow! Anyways. Thinking about playing this game again. Installed Stainless Steel 6.4 but the link is dead for the Teutonic Knights fix for v6.4. Does anyone have a copy of that file? I've been unhappy with Rome 2 and other Total War games. Would love to see total war medieval 3 anyways cheers to jumping back into this game.
I'll check in my archives to re-upload it but I'm not sure I have it.
Anyway, if you've been away for a while, check this thread. It might interest you.

Is that the "Royal Ladies" mod for Teutonic Knights youre talking about?
p.s.
Welcome back
Of course things have changed since 2011...
I now have an entirely taller feather in my cap..... so, yea.
The bird that contributed my previous feather has since been disowned by its family!
That's how awesome my new feather is!!!!!
