Release 2.0, the latest official full release including all extended content from the latest patches.
Total War: 1942 version 2.0!
As development is now continueing on the Rome: Total War Remastered (RR), this version is the full latest version, including the work on custom settlements like provided and promised in the videos.
Instructions:
0) NOTE: If you already have earlier version of Total War: 1942 installed, please remove the '1942' and completely reinstall this complete version!
1) Extract all the content to the root of your Rome: Total War version. The folder "1942" should be at the same folder height as the executables.
2) Run the movie swapper to get our intro movies. (run it again to swap old intro back)
3) After extracting, open the Total War - 1942.exe and start playing! If you don't own BI by default, you can use the Rome Total War Mod Launcher to launch the mod.
Please not that the old Total War - 1942 Launcher should not be used anymore, as it is out of function. Don't run the launcher as it might revert back to an older update. Delete the executable to make sure you don't get any problems using the old installer.
Congratulations, sir!
It looks absolutely amazing, but I cant seem to be able to play any custom battles.
It will either not load the battle, displaying many error messages, mostly of missing tree models or textures, or it will ctd right after clicking the Deployment button.
Are there files Im missing or something?
Havent tried out the campaign as of yet.
Just tested out the battles in the Campaign, didnt work out either.
I even went ahead and deleted the map.rwm file as that often enough causes ctds, but nothing changed.
Did I do something wrong?
I download this version (2.0) and followed the instructions to the letter, except for using the Movie_swapper or the non-1942 exe file.
Small addition/correction: Game crashes even before clicking the "Deployment" button, as soon as it zooms in on the units.
After having deleted the map.rwm, the error messages have stopped though.
Also, all the maps have been set to include a huge settlement, but even changing that to none didnt help at all, except in speeding up the loading time.
You should never delete the map.rwm-file in this mod as the game will start to crash a lot.
Also, the new patch is fixing that issue with custom battles and error-messages.
The main campaign won't be stable on the map though. I just played it and it will ctd on the map at a certain point.
Another addition: Infantry and Aircraft will not make the game crash, but any other vehicle and ship will.
It seems that non-steam versions of RTW is causing these problems. As I only pocess steam version, these errors don't show up on my side... We will look at this issue

Hey, Im the "Guest" and I want to thank you again for looking into this.
I have made a new discovery:
With the Reich roster (the only one Ive tested thoroughly for now) the Tanks/Armoured Cars/Motorcycles will cause a CTD directly as soon as it zooms in on them.
Meanwhile the Artillery tanks work well until they fire and you zoom in on or happen to be near of impact on an enemy unit.
Again, no problems when doing battles with Infantry and/or Aircraft, or even Howitzer Artillery except when both sides have them, then it crashes as soon as I zoom in on the enemy.
Is this a performance problem? My PC is not the best but has no problems or lag with battles of over 3000 men in the Base game and several other mods...And Ive also applied the Large Address Aware patch on all the exes...
I have none of those issues with my gaming computer from 2013 using windows 7. Your computer might be too old - this mod is using much superior models to that of the base-game and many other mods.
i have non-steam rome total war and i cant play this mod because it crash
Did you patch it?
I downloaded the full version and the patch and the game keeps crashing when a battle occurs.
As the mod is huge, not all older pc's can handle the mod. The engine is from 2003, so I hope all will be smoother when I convert the mod to Remaster
Como pongo el mod en pantalla completa
It is your preference file you need to set the window width
Hello there, awesome mod, but there is something I have noticed that confuses me: why does Portugal not have tanks? In 1942 they had some english tanks they got in the 1930s
Because we have limited slots on mounts (tanks, cars, planes and ships)
How do you play this game if it crashes every battle? Is there a patch? Other then 2.1 ?
I suggest to wait for Remaster version
Custom Naval Battles for Rome stopped working?
Yes, its a BI mod, not for vanilla RTW. So be sure to use RomeTW-BI.exe
