Even with the lack of information provided about what went wrong it seems to me that you pasted the contents of the 'eras/data' folder into the 'Medieval II Total War\data' folder rather than pasting the 'eras' folder in the 'Medieval II Total War' folder. Thus the mod won't work since it can't find the files it needs. Please follow the installation instructions.

If the mod is set up correctly then the 'Medieval II Total War' folder (default location 'C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War') should contain a folder called 'eras', and two files called 'total_war_eras.bat' and 'eras.cfg'. If one of these is missing the mod won't load.

i know, i have all three of those. i open that one up then that 'press ? number and enter to start the game' and i do, then it lists all these files uploaded and stuff, then the window closes and nothing happens...

This mod does not require Kingdoms to work. I've given you more information in your email.

Hi!

I have similar problem with your mod. I can only see screen with "Total War Eras" and f.ex. "970" (it depends on choosen campaign, but game always crash). Could you help me?

Also advise making sure your game's patched to latest. Also info on what version you're using may help Uanime diagnose your problem more accurately...
