    INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
    1. make sure you have a fresh, unmodded install of RTW:BI
    2. make sure you upgrade BI to v1.6
    3. installer will search for the proper folder to install to
    NOTE:
    the installer will execute a batch file creating an 'ibfd' directory onto which all installations will be applied
    4. Run and install the upgrade (v7.03) to the root directory (you can use JSGME if desired).

    NOTE:
    -installer will automatically search for the proper folder so normally you shouldn't have to change anything
    -the v7.0 installer will execute a batch file creating an 'ibfd' directory onto which all installations will be applied
    -no core files will be overwritten, you will come out with a CLEAN, UNMODDED RTW&BI
    -a shortcut will be installed on your desktop, it will have the '-show_err' and a '-mod:ibfd' switch

    MAKE SURE:
    =no mods modify '...\Rome - Total War\bi\data' OR '...\Rome - Total War\data'
    =install v7.0 to the root folder, usually 'C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\', anywhere else would cause a faulty install



    This mod is compatible with other mods using a '-mod:' switch

    =====================================
    ***************************************

    the year is 410AD, the Roman Garrison in Britannia was shipped to Gaul by Constantine III, the usurper. Britannia, beset by raiding Picts and Saxons, asks for help from the Roman Emperor in the West, but was told to fend for themselves.
    The Western half of the Empire is beset by it's own troubles, aside from the Amy of Constantine III which had overrun Gaul, the Vandals and Alans have reached Iberia, the Visigoths are at the gates of Rome, the Burgundii at the borders. These Germans have been driven westward by a great host - the Hunnic hordes, sweeping everything in their path, they now stand outside the gates of the Lombardi capital, and will start inroads into the West Empire and the East Empire very soon.
    The East Roman Empire is beset by the Ostrogoths, also driven west by the Huns, and to the east the great Empire of the Sassanids, with their great cataphract cavalry. But the Sassanids are also being torn apart in the East by the Hephthalites, another great nomad horde.
    No one is safe, the world is in turmoil, there is no knowing how it will end... This is INVASIO BARBARORUM! This is Total War! Get it Now!!!

    that's been settled a LOOOOOOONG time ago . I started modding by releasing a fix for that in 4.1 (also available in Gershom Patmos' last version) and its been incorporated into version 5 and up.

    the org as far as I know has a size limit and the mod is more than 70MB, the same with other sites, which is why most mods are available for download through either Badongo or Rapidshare.

    sorry misunderstood your previous question ,yes it is for 1.6. installing over lower versions causes CTD.
