I have the same problem; did all you mentioned above; problem still exists
thanks for all the information anyway
Can the java-version be wrong (outdated or ...)?

Preferably, you should have Java 7. What version are you currently using?
I am using verion 8; latest update 1.8.0_20
Got the game running after:
- I re-installed MTW to the rootdirectory of D:\ drive.
- I edited the [java]-tag of buid-scripts.ini to point to the place where my JAVA is installed.
[java]
Exe = C:\Programs\Java\jre1.8.0_20\bin\java.exe
Still: some of the ingame text is a bit messed up (can not be found?); a lot of script errors turn up in the log.txt-file; for instance this one:
(12:53:39.350 [script.err] [error] Script Error in D:/Medieval II Total War/mods/EBII/data/export_descr_buildings.txt, at line 13679, column 2
Building DB error - faction slave has gap in building prior to small_gymnasium)
I have to dive into this problem. Maybe some hint someone?

- After adding C:\Programs\Java\jre1.8.0_20\bin as a PATH parameter (I am using vista, this can be done via configuration), some script errors where solved.
However a lot of them still exist.
I can play on the map but:
My game crashes when an army attacks an enemy town.

Just FYI, I wanted to chime in and say that I couldn't fix my own shared.txt splash screen CTD (not with the launch fix, and not even by fixing the java path in build_strings.ini). I've just tried all of the same things with 2.01 (already?! You guys work awfully fast!), but to no avail either. The only change is that the error is now an "unspecified error" rather than the shared.txt error.
If you need it, I'm on windows 7, M2TW isn't in program files, and java is up to date. I acquired M2TW Gold online somehow (I don't recall if it was through steam, or via online retailer--I think the latter; when my disc broke, I broke down and did it). I'd post an error report except that none seem to be getting generated.
EDIT: I was plootering around just now and got it to work by launching it using the "launch" WBF instead of the regular launcher. Shrug. The only downside is it's windowed, and Iunno how to un-window it since it's not using the usual shortcut (and I'm useless).
ANOTHER EDIT: Correction! The windowed mode means I can't hit the 'start campaign' button. I'll keep plootering around for a fix.
FINAL EDIT: Fixed that problem thanks to the info here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...in-Full-Screen
