    http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm is what you need to unzip/open it or use 7zip.

    I downloaded 7zip, so i downloaded the Total_War_Kingdoms_Patch.rar into my "Total War-Medieval II Gold" file which is in my SEGA file. I goto the .rar and when i hit extract here it creates a new folder instead of updating, what am i doing wrong?

    I bought an online version of the game from Gamestop and it downloaded to my computer so I don't use disk or steam, could this be the problem?

    Start up one of the Kingdoms campaigns and tell me the version number on the Options page.

    It says version 1.3 when i play normal M2TW and version 1.4 when I play Kingdoms, where should I 7zip the files to? the mods folder or just the Gold folder?

    To your desktop and run the setup.exe from there.

    Ok so I decided to start over, I downloaded the file that they give on www.forums.totalwar.com for US Gold version, i download it to desktop and unzip the file to desktop, I run the setup.exe and it starts to load but then says "Kingdoms requires Medieval II: Total War to be installed." I've played countless hours on kingdoms and regular so I definately have it installed...

    Logged in as Administrator?
    Disable the UAC assuming Vista, Win 7/8?
    Take ownership of C: drive assuming Vista, Win 7/8?
    Install the game outside C:\Program Files (x86) assuming Vista, Win 7/8?

    Try placing it inside your installation folder before running it as well, and/or the detskop as irishron suggest

    Usually helps when having patching problems Other than that:
    Good luck irishron and Sycilian

    Did you try Sega? http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...1#post12964640

    Have you done this list? http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...1#post12966261

    Have you tried Gamestop support to see if they have one on their site? This is possibly the place to start.
