    Simply extract all the files using 7-zip into a clean 1.5 RTW directory. You can delete the msi file afterwards or leave it be.

    Oh God... i didn't install 1.0 this way O.o ,
    this is how i installed 1.0:Right click on EB10.exe, 7-zip, open file, double click on EB10.msi
    Could this different installation cause the CTD that i'm experiencing?
    I extracted all the 0.81aV2 files in a clean version of rome total war 1.5, but no icon appeared, and when i click Rome.exe starts the rome total war vanilla...

    It could possibly do that, but as the validation says there are no changes to any files I think not.

    You need to create the shortcut manually when installing with 7-zip. Copy your shortcut that points to 1.0, and modify it to point to your new 0.8x installation. My thought is to get that version running again, then to copy the preferences file into 1.0 so that we know there's nothing in it causing problems.

    Okay, thanks! Now, to see if we can find what files make the problem in your case. This can be quite a tedious experience (more than already!), just so you're warned.

    For the rest of this thread, 0.81aV2 = 0.8, okay? I don't want to have to type it out all the time.

    I want you to make a complete copy of your 0.8 installation so you can revert to it at any time. Then to copy sets of files over from 1.0 to 0.8 until it crashes, at which point we may have found the problem.

    The first I want to try is the diplomat and spy files, as these are in the vicinity of the crash in the Filemon log. These are any files matching the patterns diplomat* and spy* in windows explorer file search. Or copy the whole UI and models_strat folders for good measure. If it still works, we'll try some more.

    You may have the wrong version of RTW. Make sure you are patched to v1.5 or v1.6.

    Or, do you have some other RTW mod installed on your system?

    You may also want to check this thread and see if any of the suggestions help: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=93236

    Your RTW version is 1.5. Since you have the Gold version you autmatically have Barbarian Invasion which is 1.6 (If you take look at the options menu of both games you will notice that RTW is signed as 1.5 and BI as 1.6). So everything allright here.


    Then in the main menu i click on "EB-Campaign" an then this: "Select item from the list". But there's no list nothing i tried to reinstall Rome-Goldpack an Eb and so on and so an but all the times when i wanna just start the campaign this message comes.

    can you make a screenshot of the "Select item from the list" screen ("print" button and then "paste" it in a graphic program like ms paint)? This might help us find out your problem.

    If you want, you can try out the other helixes and see if any work.

    Edit: Sent you a PM with link to the hotfix for Helix4.

    That's odd. It's the same as the other ones, and "works on my computer" . Please try again.

    You may want to try Save-Target-As, in case you tried to download from the EB FTP server.

    I've got it on a private server, it's not on the EB FTP. Although I'll put it there if he still has problems.
