Hi all somebody please help me with STW!!!Im new!!

[Martok]

thanks so i dont need to download 1.12 patch then just install as normal?

Correct.

You don't need to install Shogun.

You don't need to install Mongol Invasion.

You just install Warlord Edition, download the 2.01 patch, and you're all set.


(Edited to correct ignorance/forgetfulness on my part!)

Thank you to everyone who has replyed to this thread I appreciate it now if i could only meet some of you on the battle field that would be cool I just need to know what is the correct settings for the Internet.cfg file because ive read several different setting and that this server is down or that server is down thanks

You will however need patch v1.02 which is standard for everyone playing at the moment. You then need to edit your internet.cfg details to enable your computer to connect to R'as server rather than it try to connect to the old and now defunct server.

I can help with a step by step guide if you want to add me to your msn and catch me online sometime

thats cool cheers the thing is i seem to be having trouble when i install the patch The game doesnt seem to work properly I have it running all good at the moment without the patch I will save the computer restore point before the patch is installed and have this as my internet cfg

ChatserverIPAddress = shogun-fakeserver.dnsdojo.org
ChatserverPort = 8793
NewsserverIPAddress = daphne.eagames.co.uk
NewsserverPort = 8797
ShogunTotalWarWebsite = www.totalwar.com

Is this correct?

but as soon as the patch is there It doesnt play but it might have been due to the fact i had all the versions of the game installed and i was using a codec which was wrong ?? if there is a codec i need which one is the right one for my laptop if the game runs now with out the patch do i need the codec when ive installed the patch ??

[Shin-GaiJin]

Those settings are correct. As you say, because you had different versions of the game installed etc that could have caused your problems.

You need either....

Shogun Total War AND The Mongol Invasion expansion pack AND 1.02 patch



or
Shogun Total War Warlords Edition AND the 1.02 patch

Both amount to the same

...oh and of course the internet cfg change too!

@ the new Taishos who try to play online:
What's your status? Are you all set, need more help?

I set up this little site a while ago, for compressed info on my FakeServer:
My MP mini site
It's up & running 24/7. If you can't connect and the problem persists for more than an hour it's an error on your side.
All other questions should have appeared before and, if so, were being discussed in Sword Dojo, Section MP.
When you visit the Sword Dojo MP section, edit the options to display the threads of the last year or older, instead of default last month's threads. Bottom of page or your User panel.
Check out the stickied threads on top for hosting etc.

Don't hesitate to ask if you have further questions. I'm more involved in our Samurai Warlords mod for M:TW/VI but
am always glad to help. Saw Otto on the Server the other day (couldn't join you, was busy), so he figured it out allright.
