Crash at launching SS 6.4

[Argabas]

Greetings,

I've got the problem that SS 6.4 can't be started. 6.3 worked seemingly fine, but when I updated to 6.4 I was no longer able to start the mod. When trying to start the game, the title screen just flashes up for a brief moment in the upper left corner of the desktop and vanishes again, the game itself does not start. Reinstalling 6.3 and 6.4 did not help either.

For help I'd be most grateful.

Yours,
Argabas

operating system?

also whats the exact error message u get if any

[Argabas]

Windows 8.1. Also, there is no error message whatsoever. Launching the mod simply brings up the title screen for like two seconds in the upper left corner of the screen, then it disappears and that's it.

did you install outside program files, preferably on a 2nd drive if available?

[Argabas]

C:\Program Files (x86)\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\SS6.3

That's where I installed it. A second drive I don't have.

try installing the patch by right clicking the .exe file and selecting "run as adminstrator". Then do the same for ss_setup.exe in your ss6.3 folder. if that doens't work, reinstall mtw2 outside program files so uac doesn't mess with it as much on windows 8+
