Hello Minikiller,

some mod-installers come with uninstallers. But because all mods only overwrite already existing files, those overwritten files are missing from the game when you use the uninstaller. There's no previous version of the files that gets restored, they're simply deleted. The bottom line is that an uninstaller can't work with this game unless it saves the original files somewhere. I haven't come across any mod-installer for VI that does that.
Our mod doesn't offer an uninstall option for that reason.

A fresh install of MTW/VI 2.01 is required or a copy of such a version.
To make a simple copy, go to the Total War folder (C:/Programs/Total War) and right click on the Medieval folder, select copy, now right click somewhere else in the Total War folder and select paste. Voila, a new folder named "Copy of Medieval". Open the folder, find the MedievalTW.exe, right click the exe, hold the button, drag it to the desktop, let go of the button, select "Create shortcut". Voila, a new shortcut to the copied version.
This way you leave your vanilla install unmodded. Of course you need to install the SamWars mod to the copied folder you just created.
