    Default Mod Idea & RTR Installation Problem

    OK, I know that The RTR installation Problem is sorta in the wrong catagorie.

    -Mod Idea-

    -Installation Problem-
    wanted to install RTR but I am having a bit of a problem. I bought RTW: Gold and I followed your directions I installed the 1.2 patch and then RTR. That did not work, Its crashed to the desktop at start up. So I made my way over to your forums where I looked at a sticky about this problem. I found out that RTW: Gold was a version 1.5 and I was also told that this problem was easy to fix all I had to do was "Download the zip 1.2 and extract it to your RTW 1.5 directory". Great, I don't now what that means so if you could write up or link me to some directions how to do this it would be much appreciated.

    If you want those shields then put them in yourself, an entire mod is not needed. Ask some of the more experienced modders for help on that.

    Uh, so said you have Gold? That is already patched to 1.5, so don't install the 1.2, that is probably what caused the problem.

    Play RTR 6.0 Gold with RTW 1.5 engine. which is actually a conversion project from few RTR fans to port RTR Gold into RTW 1.5

    Did not work. All the files are installed but there is no .exe to run RTR. There is even a RTR icon on the desktop....But it just links to painshop, where I picture of the icon apears.

    A MOD is not a new game. It's a MODification of the game, there's no .exe for RTR, it's the same as the origianl RTW .exe file. Just install RTR and run the game normally. And I think that the problem comes from your first RTR installation that "damaged" original Gold 1.5 files. I think you need to reinstall RTW and then install the RTR for Gold Edition.

    Open the folder where you install the RTR Platinum (or any other mod). You'll find RTW.exe file there. Right click the file and choose 'send to desktop'. Use the desktop icon to start the game.
