    Add show_err to you Rome Total War shortcut.

    So you get:

    "C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" show_err

    I thought it was:
    "C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -show_err


    Is that why I haven't seen an error in a while?

    It seems to me that the - is optional. I have always just used show_err and get plenty of error messages. But I think that -show_err works also.

    All the switches seem to work both with or without the hyphen in front of them.

    Unfortunatly I'm not bragging.
    No error messages, but plenty of unexplainable CTDs
