I'll post the answer here then other users of the mod can see it and perhaps solve a few problems of their own.

I also can't play vanilla RTW or BI anymore. But that is not a problem since the installation of the mod only adds one file to your Data folder. It is very easy to disable that file when you want to play original game.

The file in question is called patch_1.pak, and is located in ''Your Main Rome folder''/Data/packs.

The way I do it is to have two Data folders, one with the patch_1.pak file, one without, and simply rename them at will. If I want to play original BI/RTW I rename the Data folder with the patch_1.pak file to something else that the game won't use, usually something like DataMod, and the original Data folder is then used. If I want to play the mod I rename the original Data folder to DataOrig, and the modded Data folder to Data so then that folder is used. It's that simple. Most probably you could do it by simply renaming the patch_1.pak file itself, I haven't tried that but it should work also.

Be sure to download and install the music patch, it's great, adds a whole new depth to the mod. It's easy to install and bug free. Contains some period music and (in my opinion) better battle music than vanilla RTW/BI.

I hope you enjoy the mod and feel free to post screenshots if you feel like it.

U two should download the JSGME. It allows u to switch between mods and vanilla RTW easily. Follow these instructions (from scriptorium):
