Need ALEX.exe for this,due to model limits.

Hmm.... seems quite a few people play this without Alexander.... maybe I should create a non-Alex version, with a few units cut out.

Hey bro , really liked your mod . Well done !!

Right; uploading v1.7 now.

- contains a few more bugfixes (spotted by Ender Seldon:thanks mate!)
- reverted back to RTW.exe; I thought that it was best, due to installation complications with Steam users and to ensure that more people can play the mod. I should add that all the original units with 1.7 are STILL in v1.8; luckily I managed to find (and delete) a few more dummy units in the DMB file =D

I've tested it a bit and it seems that the mod is in perfect working order. Please do PM me or post on this thread if you discover any problems!

UPDATE - seems Filefronts being a pain and the upload page is not loading properly ¬_¬

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

Allright lads, v1.7's up. Reverted back to RTW.exe, so Alexander is no longer needed to play the mod =)

Don't forget to send me feedback (and rep if needs be =P); the more mistakes pointed out the quicker I can fire out bugfixes (if any)!

The download link is not working, other than that the mod looks amazing

[GethHunterJ]

sorry for second post, I managed to download the mod but, it seems filefront is acting weird. I'll let you know what I think after I play for awhile.

muchas gracias, el mod es genial!

I have a problem starting this mod that i didnt have with any other until now. When i start the bat file my screen goes black and it just stays like this, no loading screen, no nothing. Moreover i cant exit it and i need to force restart my laptop its really wierd. I tried to run the file as admin but nothing happens when i do that. The program just appears for a sec then it exits. Any ideas how i can fix this?

[GethHunterJ]

^ I have this problem as well, by the way you don't have to restart, just control+alt+delete and end task.

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

I'll look into this. Give me a day or so.

PS - I take it you are both using Steam? What is the .exe file called; I could really use a print-screenie of the Steam-RTW Gold folder contents....

[GethHunterJ]

I'll try and get a screen cap but, my print screen button doesn't seem to work. I'm its the same as a non-steam version except located in steam\steamapps\common\rome total war gold. I'm using Vista if that helps.

nvm here it is http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images...wcontents.jpg/

[Ironhand]

I am with vista as well and my version is not with steam just regular RTW copy. BTW when i ctrl alt del i have to wait for ages to load and it lags like hell. Srsly i dont know what is this bat file doing but my CPU usage is like 110% and its way quicker to force restart than to wait the laggy task manager.

[GethHunterJ]

Hmmmm, how old is your laptop, mine is three years old but, not really a gaming laptop.

[Ironhand]

4 years give or take, but this thing happens for a first time with a RTW mod. I can play RS2, EB etc. without any problems. I can play M2TW too, so i really dont think its a hardware issue. Maybe that bat file has some sort of incompatibility with my system idk...

[Zipzopdippidybopbop]

Have you both tried running the TE batch file in Windows XP compatibility mode?

In the meantime; I created another batch file; give this one a try (delete the old TE one) and see if it fixes your problem.

[Ironhand]

Nope. same thing happened with the new one

[GethHunterJ]

Yeah the new bat file didn't work for me either. Can you view my rtw contents folder in the image I posted above?
