How do I make another copy of RTW to mod?

[hellas1]

Hi everybody,

I sent Activision an email and they said that I CAN'T make another copy of RTW for modding purposes. They then said that it would involve complex registry changes blah...blah...blah.


Is this true? & If it isn't COULD SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME DO IT?

THANK YOU, ANY & EVERYONE.

LATER, HELLAS1

All you have to do is go to your activision folder in program files, and copy RTW, then paste it in the activision folder and thats it simple.

I'll try it dude, we'll see.

Copy all of the RTW files in the Activision folder and paste them to a new folder named differently than Rome Total War.

Got it.

Thanks ;)

Hey dudes,

I just tried to copy the RTW files from the Activision folder to another folder within Activision, in other words: from Rome - Total War to RTW folder.

I had an error though, here's what it is:
Cannot copy egyptian_outro_320x240: Data error (cyclic redundancy check).
What's going on?

HEEELLLPPPP!

The easiest thing is just to copy the whole folder. Go to the directory where you´ve installed Rome to, right-click on the Rome folder, select copy, right-click n the folder again and select paste, and after some time (depending on your machine) you´ll have a folder named "copy of Rome".
