    Hi! Sorry, I'm a new member and I joined only to ask a question on the installation of the mod. I'm sorry if my English is wrong but I'm Italian and I'm not so good XD Than! My problem is one, only one. I have installed part 1 and part 2, taken in the Rage of Dark Gods torrent's folder (I'll hope that all is clear!). Up to now no problems! But when I try to install part 3, it crashes when arrive at 4% of the installation... Why??? Thanks a lot for answers!

    Installment of patch and quick fixes - I can't really make it any easier then exactly describing where to extract the attachments (fixes) or to simply run the EXE of the patch:

    If it stops, simply wait for a while - there are some big files being installed and sometimes it look as if it stops.
    If it crashes, download the faulty part again. You can take a good guess which number file it will be by looking at the percent when it crashes. The torrent download will not cause crashes while installing.

    Is there any difference between the alternative download on the german site and your torrent with patches? I mean the end result. Is the other one in english as well?

    Downloaded your version a couple of months ago, but couldlnt play it, constantly crashed. Was on my laptop as well. SO now that I have my pc back, I am trying again.

    Seems like I managed to get it to work with your install. A few battles in and no crashes. Seems promising

    The torrent from the first page is still the best option, regular downloads (the German site has an exact copy of my installation) always run the danger of getting corrupted.
    After that simply download and install the patch and fixes in order (check the instructions) and you are set.

    Silly questions to start of with:

    1. Do you have the Steam version of the game? (We still have people that use the launcher with the regular version)
    2. Are you running this version of the mod - eg from the OP of this thread - or the original version?
    3. What is the path to the mod (full length please)
    4. If you open the Kingdoms Launcher Application, select the mod and choose edit - what path is shown for the mod?


    And please provide a log as described in the OP's 'Error reporting' section.

    Heres what I did.

    Fresh install Med2
    Fresh Install Kindoms
    Installed your torrented version (setting install path to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\
    Installed that kingdoms launcher thing
    Set C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods\Rage_of_dark_Gods\

    I'll install the patches when i fix it. (i got the same error even with the patches few hours ago. )

    If you don't get a log then it may point to a problem with Steam or the game's registration. Can you start other mods on the launcher list (kingdom campaigns)?
    Please remove the mod's entry in the launcher application (see bottom of tutorial page) and then redo it - paying particular attention that the right EXE (kingdoms) is chosen as shown in step 2 of the tutorial. Also make a note of the path and name of the CFG file as shown in step 4.
    If all else fails please try if this application solves the issue: Steam compatible modStarter

    That is a sure sign that your installation is not in the correct folder. Trace the BAT file of your mod installation, it should look like this:

    ....Medieval II Total War\mods\Rage_of_dark_Gods\Executable.bat

    Also check in the 'Medieval II Total War' if the kingdoms.exe file is present. Did you apply this tutorial as mentioned? It is essential.

    Hi Gigantus,

    Thanks alot for making this mod so much easier to install! However I have a problem where every time I end the turn, the game crashes. I have attached the error log. I have updated the mod to 1.51 with your patch and have added the quickfixes as well.

    The negative age is a bit weird (looks like Geomod had a field day) and the low pop number can also be corrected - but none are fatal (they must have been present from the beginning of the release).
    Please have a look in the first page in the 'Error Report' section how to create a trace log, run the game until your error and then submit the log as desrcribed.

    Ok, ran the game til it crashed and attached the trace log in a zip folder. Thanks in advance!

    It happens at the attack of Averland, with two armies, on Pfunzig. This is a standard attack in the first round to give that faction control over the city, not sure what the problem could be.

    Could you check what the size of your installation of RodG is (right click the folder and click properties) - it should be about 8GB if everything has been installed. If it is substantially less, then please run the installation again, it should be three installers for the main game, after that the patch and fixes.
