Installation Instructions

1. Install Rome Total War.
2. Install Barbarian Invasion expansion.
3. Install the BI v1.6 Patch.
4. Download and install RTRVII to the Rome - Total War directory.

RTRVII is mod-foldered and will not interfere with any original game files or any other correctly designed and installed mod-foldered RTW modification.

If using the Steam version of the game follow the directions below-

1. Run the RTR VII installer like normal, changing the install path to xxxx/steam/steamapps/common/rome total war gold
2. Ignore the launcher and short-cut prompts, they won't work
3. Open Steam, right-click on Rome: Total War Gold in the My Games menu
4. Select Properties
5. Under the General tab select Set launch options ...
6. Type in -mod:RTRVII -show_err -nm without quotations and click OK
7. Launch Rome: Total War Gold by double-clicking it in the My Games menu
8. Select Barbarian Invasion from the two-choice list and Launch.
