    Default Need help with steam please

    Hi, i have just finished downloading the Call of Warhammer mod and put it ( patched ) into the modfolder.
    Then i used the Medieval2 modinstaller to put the mod into the Total War Launcher.
    My problem is that i still don't get the mod working.

    Whenever i try to start it o only get the "fatal error" message and nothing else.
    I checked the registry and the mod seems to be registered under "unofficial" mods, so the modinstaller aparently worked. Can anyone tell me what i might have done wrong?

    I didn't use modinstaller but used other method thanks to Chivalry II: Sicilian Vespers guys

    This is for any other Steam users:

    In order to properly play SV 3.0 you must first load Steam;
    1. Go into steam and right click on Kingdoms.
    2. Select "Properties" from the right click menu.
    3. Select "Set Launch options...".
    4. Copy this link into the text box. @mods\SicilianVespers\SicilianVespers.cfg

    Exit Steam.

    Now go into Steam, Steam apps, Common Files, and finally the m2 directory.

    Now:

    1. Create a new folder, name it whatever you please, Backup ex.
    2. Cut the Launcher.exe icon and paste it into the new folder you created for future use.
    3. Rename the kingdoms.exe icon into Launcher.exe.

    After exiting out to the desktop you can now go into the ChivII loader, double click select the age you wish to play and once the dos window loads files let it exit out and go into steam or click on the kingdoms link on your desktop.

    Now when M2 loads it should load Sicilian Vespers and your correct age.

    If it is darkage, etc... it is in Custom Campaigns, the Late era is the main campaign.

    Now instead of putting Sicilian vespers in launch options, just put this one:
    @mods\Call_of_Warhammer\warhammer.cfg

    protip: Make sure to backup those launchers and stuff, incase you want to use other methods such as: Backuping teutonic, changing warhammer name to teutonic etc.
