Hi everyone

I'm interested in the Hellenic Mod and have been advised to have a 2nd install so that I can run it. I managed to install MTW a 2nd time into a Hellenic directory. The VI disc only gave the option of Play or Uninstall. How do I get the VI 2nd install on ??

Help appreciated http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/bigthumb.gif

YAKOBU, your best bet is to not do a second install, but rather to just copy the MTW/VI folder and paste it to another name - like Hellenic Total War. Then right-click on the Medieval_TW.exe file in the Hellenic Total War folder and select create shortcut. Rename this shortcut to Hellenic Total War and then drag it onto your desktop, start menu, games folder or wherever you keep your game launchers.

By copying, you'll save a lot of time and hassle.

Don“t simply extraxt the patches to HTW:

Make this:
Extract the patches to a temporary folder and copy all files in the patches and paste them to HTW.
Files like campmap-folder, Battle-folder and so on.

The two times I tried to download the main hellenic install it was corrupt and stopped extracting at 17 percent (both with my usual extracter and winrar) so it was obvious it wasn't going to run properly.

I just gave up on it and I'm waiting until they release a new full install.
