    Well it worked for me!



    The only thing I seem to have done different, is that I run a batch file (.bat) to load the game. Like it said in the unpacker readme.
    Brave Sir Robin ran away.
    Bravely ran away, away!
    When danger reared its ugly head,
    He bravely turned his tail and fled.
    Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
    And gallantly he chickened out.
    Bravely taking to his feet
    He beat a very brave retreat,
    Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!

    Mmm you know what? I removed the original loading screens and put a new one name as loading_screen_1 (so there's only one loading screen in game) the game still loads the original ones!

    So there's a twist with the

    [io]
    file_first=true

    or what...?

    Call me stupid, but what .bat file? The only one I see is from the "lands to conquer" mod, not from M2TW... :(

    Do I need to make one, and how do I do that?
    Could you please explain?

    1. open notepad
    2. type in "medieval2.exe --io.file_first"
    3. save in your "SEGA\Medieval II Total War" directory
    as skinstart.bat
    4. double click and M2TW should start and use your skins

    Thanks a lot:) , I created the .bat file and the game loads, but the textures still ain't showing up....

    I retextured the "late_northern_captain_england.texture" as you see on the pic above, but it's still the original one that's showing up....

    arr... ?

    I didnt have access to the files or have time to search for them so I told you where to get them, theres no need to be incompatible about it. If you'd have read the thing instead of getting up on your high horse you'd have had your answer an hour earlier and saved someone the bother of typing them out for you.
