    Default Strange Issues

    I've tried the fixes detailed in the stickies, but none of them seem to be working. To start with, if I try to run mod as an administrator, the text in the executable, before it opens, changes and it says it can't find the Kingdoms exe. If I try to run it as normal, it works just fine. Additionally, attempting to start a campaign resets me back to the main menu after I click the button to start, and can't go back into the campaign selection screen again. All battle maps stop at half % and CTD. Is this a known issue? If so, is there a solution?

    The system log is there, but is ludicrously long, is there a way I can post it that won't exceed the word limit?

    Firstly, welcome to the forums. It's always nice to see new members (even if they're veterans of Total War) on the TWC

    Secondly, could you explain in a little more detail about how your game is setup?

    1) What OS do you have?

    2) Is your Kingdoms expansion updated to 1.5?

    3) Are you running the game on steam?

    4) Which download link(s) did you use?

    5) Have you applied the correct translation to your game?

    Windows 7.

    2) Is your Kingdoms expansion updated to 1.5?
    As far as I'm aware, yes. I'll check when I get back onto my main computer.

    3) Are you running the game on steam?
    No.

    4) Which download link(s) did you use?
    The torrent in the stickies.

    5) Have you applied the correct translation to your game?
    The download says it was a complete package and included the English translation patch.

    Ok, since you have Windows 7, did you disable your UAC before installing the mod?

    Also, be sure to delete your "VirtualStore" folder after you disable your UAC and after installing the mod.

    I did disable UAC, but I do not recall if I deleted that folder. I'll try that.

    And if I were you, I'd delete your "Call_of_Warhammer" folder and reinstall the mod.

    Alright. I've already done that a couple times, but I'll see if doing that while the UAC is disabled will change anything.

    Also, where is this 'VirtualStore' folder? I can't find it.

    C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\VirtualStore

    You MUST have hidden folders and files visible in order to find this folder.

    Alright I deleted it after reinstalling. Unfortunately, the patch does not install at all, probably something to do with how I can only find an EU version. However, the error has changed even though it's at the same place. Now it says it's an unspecified error like what other people have reported in the threads. I'll check those to see if anybody has a solution.

    Also, the campaign still gives the same issue as before.

    I know the torrent you have says that it has the english translation, but you MUST download the translation found in post #2 in order to fix the campaign menu bug.

    I just tried installing that, nothing has changed.

    hmmm....

    It seems that most of the campaign menu bugs come from the torrent. I don't know why though.

    I'll try redownloading. There was a download link that wouldn't let me download unless I had a premium membership at some place, but I believe I saw a Megaupload link.

    Found the download link, it looks like the uploader is going to be changing the files soonish. Guess I'll just have to wait until he does.

    The new download links were just added. Be sure to try them and see if they work.

    Thanks! =D Crossing my fingers, this mod looks really excellent.

    It looks like all the problems were solved by this different download. It appears that none of the custom UI's worked under the previous one. There might still be a few problems, but I can actually play now. I'll post again if I face any more issues.

    Sorry, it looks like there is more issues. I can't advance turns in the campaign, it just freezes. Will a log be necessary?
