mod dont start

[+MementoMori+]

the mod dont start and go to ctd
i need a simple tutorial for installation of this mod for steam users

[sullivanclan1]

Does anyone know how to resolve the issue with loading any campaign like dark campaign but then results in ctd? Any way to resolve that issue would be great.

[Elendil 03]

Yes, you need to click "custom campaign" in the SP options and then select the Darkage campaign. Grand Campaign works only if you activate Late Era through the Launcher.

I did try to do the campaign in the Late Era throught the launcher but got ctd instead. Any ideas on how to resolve it?

[Elendil 03]

Delete the mod folder, reinstall, select "Late Era" in the Launcher, start the game, enter the Singelplayer options, click on "Grand Campaign" and play.
Alternatively, select one of the other eras, continue to "Custom campaign" through the Singleplayer oprions and double-click on the era you chose in the launcher.

How do I install the game? Instruction guidelines?

[Elendil 03]

You download the SV3 installer, the 3.3 patch and the Hotfix and run them in this order. You need to select the path manually as the executables are set to use the disk version's directory by default.
For further information, see this thread.

[sullivanclan1]

Can you create a folder and then place it within that folder or will it not work?

[sullivanclan1]

I couldn't complete the installation because C:\Programs Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods\SicilianVespers\mods\SicilianVespers\data\blockset\north_europeans\animations\tower_castle_animations\castle_large_stone_tower_animations\large_castle_square_8m_arrow_tower_animation_a.$$A Is there a way for me to fix this?

[Belgrado]

I think you shouldn't install it trough steam, but im not sure.

[sullivanclan1]

Then through where then? Like not through mods but through C:\Programs (x86)\steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War?

I try to load a campaign but I got a ctd. I found the error but idk how to fix it. Any ideas on how to fix it?

[Elendil 03]

That log entry comes from a crash with HRR, not SV. Where did you encounter the error report "file:///C:/Programs%20Files%20(x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/Medieval%20II%20Total%20War/mods/SicilianVespers/mods/SicilianVespers/data/blockset/north_europeans/animations/tower_castle_animations/castle_large_stone_tower_animations/large_castle_square_8m_arrow_tower_animation_a.$$A" (in which of the installation .exes/in the game)?
What did you do after entering the SV launch menu (era selection in blue letters on black background)?

[sullivanclan1]

I pressed L and then went to the late campaign menu then selected England. It loaded for a bit and then crashed.

[sullivanclan1]

This is what I got
21:20:03.525 [system.io] [info] exists: missing mods/TLR/preferences/player.txt

There is larger problem when I scrolled down. Is there a way to fix this? I got to half way through loading the England campaign then ctd.

[Elendil 03]

Sorry, I have no clue on what could've gone wrong.

[sullivanclan1]

Do you know anyone that could give me some advice or instructions on how to fix it? If not then its fine with me.

[Elendil 03]

Well, you could ask Gigantus if he's not too busy atm.

[sullivanclan1]

what is his email so I can ask him myself?

[Elendil 03]

I don't know, try with a PM: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/priva...=newpm&u=14940
