[RODTHEGOD]

alright heres the problem
ive tried installing rtw and rtr about 4 or 5 times in a row and each time i try and find everything i can to make sure that the uninstal didnt miss anything

then i restart

then i reinstal rtw

but for some reason when i try to reinstal rtw 1.2 it says that i already have it (this is probably y its not working but im not sure)

so i install it and when i click play it goes to the map of italy then closes

can some one help me, ive been trying to get it workin all day

This is another topic concerning an installation bug, maybe somebody should make a sticky for the solutions to it? (Or is there already one out there that can be linked to in the future?)

I suggest you manually start the setup for the installation. How do you do that? I'll try and explain it my best:

1. Enter your RTW Disc #1.
2. Do not choose any of the autostrat options. Instead, go to 'My Computer,' right click on the CD icon, and click Open.
3. Once inside you'll see many folders/icons. Look for the icon that is called Rome Total War(TM) and click it. (If not that, then Setup)
4. Your game will then "uninstall," even though you already deleted your folders. You can reinstall after.

EDIT: Never mind, I have found the link:

just make sure you have errased all traces of Rome, then reinstall it, then install the 1.1 and 1.2 patches. RTR should work by then.
