LestaT as made possible to play BC in kingdoms.
Some stuff are missing but is preparing a new version it any luck, the next version will have permanent fort´s
This is a manual installation on Broken Crescent Kingdoms, so please read carefully before installing. Please skip the steps if you already have these installed.
Installing Core Game:
1. Install Medieval 2 Total War
2. Install Medieval 2 Total War: Kingdoms Expansion (minimum 1 campaign should be enough).
3. Install Medieval 2 Total War: Kingdoms Expansion patch v1.5
* Choose the patch according to your M2TW/Kingdoms version.
Make sure the game/patch is working before proceeding.
Installing the Mod.
Before installing the mod you must make sure that you have no other mod installed that changes any of the vanilla game files or it may not work as intended. Other mods that are installed in their own mod-folder shouldn't cause any problems though.
1. Install Broken Crescent v1.0
2. Install Broken Crescent patch v1.05
* The post 1.05 fix is not needed as I have included them in the Broken Crescent Kingdoms mod.
3. Open you Medieval II Total War folder where you have install Broken Crescent, for example (mine) is at D:\Program Files\GAMES\SEGA\Medieval II Total War
4. Copy your broken_crescent folder and paste it in the mods folder
5. Unpack the Broken Crescent Kingdoms (to desktop) and/or directly overwrite the olf files with news ones to Medieval II Total War/mods/broken_crescent
* Use winrar which can be download (free) here: http://www.rarlab.com/
6. Open you broken_crescent folder (inside the mod folder) , use medieval2_broken_crescent.bat file to run the mod
* Alternatively you can create short-cut to desktop for easier access.
7. Enjoy the mod.
Disclaimer:
Released with consent of Miraj and the BC team. There are no changes (AFAIK) to the core BC mod. The changes are those related to make BC 1.05 playable with the latest (and final) kingdoms patch. It is not tested with unpatched Kingdoms (v1.4) so I cannot guarantee that it'll work as intended. I have use the European version (not the Gold version) of M2TW/Kingdoms and have not tested on other version. It may (with tweaks) or may not work with Steam or other downloadable version.
Besides the BC mod itself, I have use other works in this compilation (to speed things up rather than manually creating/modding) either in parts or in whole by myself.

For any bugs encountered, please check with reported bugs here in case it's already reported. I have not extensively play/tested this conversion yet so there might be new bugs introduce unintentionally. Please post bugs here instead of in the official BC bugs report.
