You can right click on the CD icon in 'My Computer' and click on explore. If you open up 'Setup' you should be able to reinstall it. You may also get a reinstall option when the disc loads up anyway.

Hi, I've been trying to install the super mod v. 2.0 in order to install the 2.1 later on, and it keeps saying "This file contains invalid data". I was just wondering what the cause was and if there is some sort of fix for it.

[sephirothno12000]

Forget about my previous post, as I have solved that problem. However, I have another issue when actually installing the BKB mod 2-1.0. After awhile into the installment, it would have problems installing certain programs i.e.:

C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval-Total War\Battle\Flags\SuperModEarly\FLAG1001.$$A

C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval-Total War\campmap\info_Pics\Buildings\Pagan\Coloured\Horse farmer 1.$$A

I've tried retrying the installation as stated but it always fails somewhere, sometimes sooner that before, sometimes later in the installation. I'd appreciate any recomendations for solutions.

Thanks m8 got it. Great work on the mod, looks awsome!

By maps do you mean folders? Yes that sounds good. Make sure though when auto-installing my mod you tell it to install into the 'Total War ?' folder rather than the 'Medieval - Total War' folder within.

SuperMod Version 20 does not exist; its probably from an old installation. Just install Version 2.0 and then 2.1 on top of it and you should be ok.

Ok could you look in your 'BKB' folder and then find a folder called 'Loc'. Inside there, what other folder do you have? I'm not sure what country your based in. You see my mod is only compatible with English language games, although that can be amended if for example you normally play in another language.

Thanks Eugen, but the colours are the same as the default game. If your familar with modding you can change them yourself by going into the 'Campmap/Startpos' folder. There you'll see a file for each period, 'Super Early', etc. Search for colour and you should see something about colours. Find the English one:

SetFactionCol:: FN_ENGLISH 255 0 0 255 0 0

The first 3 colours give the primary colour (Red), while the second lot give the secondary colour, which is also red, as you can see. From here you can experiment till you get a mix your happy with.

hi mate i am from england but i live in holland but my MTW is englisch language so are the updates for it i did have to uninstall my MTW so i cant look for the file you meen sry mate but i remember that when startet the game you comme in a menu for choosing a a country but i did not see the country s you cane choose and even when i when t to choose a faction i only could see somme pics of kings with somme strange text ???? and the it did a crach to desk top so i dont no wot i did wrong????

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

So the game's always in English? Well that's not the problem then. When you go the the 'Campaign' mode, are 'Super Early', 'Super High' and 'Super Late' there? If so, when you click on them, do all the factions come up? What is the 'strange text' exactly?

[axel]

hi mate yes the super early and the super high and the super late shows up, and if i click on it it shows no campain i meen the colour map of europe where you cane choose a faction so if i click on super early and click again to choose a faction i only see pics of kings and there is somme text with it where normaly says the faction i thought sommething like king_xl or sommething like that i am sry mate i am not shure i dont have it on my computer at this moment it did a lot of desktop craches so i uninstal my MTW and i did nt put it on again becose i want to make shure how to do it right. i hope you cane help me

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Ok it sounds like it might be a problem with the text files anyway. Re-install Medieval and VI with patches as I told you, and then check if it works first. As each Medieval install feeds off a different directory the safest way to load it up is to actually go into the folder and open the 'Medieval_TW' exe in there.

If that is working ok, then go into a folder called 'Loc', which is inside your 'Medieval - Total War' folder, or whatever name you have given the folder, like BKB or whatever. Do you have a folder inside here called 'Eng'? If so, that's ok, but if not, what is it called instead?

After this we can go ahead and try installing the mod first.

[axel]

hi mate well i instalt MTW and VI again i put on all update s and your mod but the same thing happens but now i cane tell you wot it say s by the factions if i am where you may choose the factions i see Factions_x2y##1!!T or other numbers and if i read down at the factions discription it say s this label does not exist!! dunno wots wrong mate???i have put XL mod and fall of rome and VI mod from wes they all work fine at this moment dunno wot the problem is ?

[axel]

hi mate about the folder its loc and in it its eng

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Mmmm. I know its annoying mate re-installing all the time, so I'll do my best to help. Have you tried playing the mod BEFORE installing the patch? It really does sound like a problem to do with the text files. Please do this for me. Look in the main folder with my mod in and you should see something like this:



Now you see the folder that says 'Loc' at the top line? Double-click on that. Now do you see this folder, 'Eng', or something else?



If it does say 'Eng', do you have all these folders inside? Obviously you won't have the 'Copy of' folders but its crucial you have the rest. There should be 4 'DEFAULT_FACTION_SPECIFIC_....' and 4 'DEFAULT_REGION_SPECIFIC_....'

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Ah sorry mate I didn't see your second post. Well you don't need my first two but perhaps you could answer the question about the last picture? I take it the problem occurs in all 3 periods, or is it just one or two?

[axel]

hi mate i have a got loc file and in this loc file i have indeed a file cald eng and in this file i have 26 other text files not as much as you have i see mate

[axel]

sry mate its all period

[The Blind King of Bohemia]

Ok I think I might have an idea of what you've done wrong. You see the first picture I posted in that post, this one:



Do you have a folder inside it called 'Medieval - Total War'? Only I have a feeling you may have installed the patch but not the actual mod, at least I hope that's what it is.
