Mod Manager [Updated 25/04/14]

[Mishmish]

How do I direct the manager to the Rome 2 installation folder? Every time I run it I get an unhandled exception which reads "Parameter name: filepath." So I'm hoping that's it.

im a total noob at this but, When i unpack the mod , and i click on the mod manager icon, it just crashes , what am i doing wrong?

So earlier today i was playing with the mods, no issue. But now that i started a new campaign. Almost none of the mods are working.

Also, the Mod Manager is now showing the vanilla pack files. It wasn't showing them before...

I believe that is part of the reason why the mods are not working, what i do not understand is how did that happen.

Did you apply a patch?

Just the friday patch

But the main issue i'm having is with the Mod Manager. It didn't showed Rome II's vanilla pack files. And now it does and i don't know why...

You should probably post this in the ModManager thread...As for the vanilla packs being shown, it did that for me from the start; you have to it not to (there's a checkbox on the right).

The only options i have is show all pack types and show vanilla conflicts.

Even when i have unticked the show vanilla conflicts option, it shows me all the vanilla conflicts.

if you are having problems with mod manager, just use userscript.txt. It depends on whether the mod is a modpack or movierpack.

thanks for the tip. I'm going to try right now.

Nope it didn't worked. When i start a new campaign, i get the vanilla public order, taxing, etc.

Most of the mods i was using were Radious Mods. they were movie pack files.

If you edit user.script.txt, you need to set the encoding to Unicode or the game won't recognize it.
You have to open the advanced options in Notepad to do that.

Every time I press the launch button it CTD. Did I do something wrong?

I have the retail, not the steam version.

Use the checkboxes on the right. You're currently viewing all packs, untick it.

Mods works like a charm.

I'n having issues with mod manger, how do I manualy add mod in the text file? I mean I found it, but not exactly sure what goes in, and it has a wall of text that seem to be my settings?

[Hrobatos]

Yeah I was looking at wrong text file. Mods file is empty.

Edit: nevermind I found it

[oximoxie]

Everytime I start the mod manager I have to find the exe each time.

Also i have about 20 different things to check boxes for like data or data_rome2, do I have to check these all off? How can I get it to show only the mods and not the game files?
