(Part 1 of 2) All Previous patches included. INSTALLATION GUIDE BELOW!
Important Note: Make sure you have WinRAR installed on your computer (winrar is FREE you dont need to register). This will allow you to extract the downloaded files from their RAR packs.
Please make sure to follow the exact instructions to avoid complications.
Step 1: Install the original Third Age 3.2 by installing the following files in proper order:
All three downloads contain easy-to-use installers.
1. Third Age 3.0 (Part 1 of 2)
2. Third Age 3.0 (Part 2 of 2)
3. Third Age 3.2 (Patch)
Step 2: Rename the Third Age 3.2 folder to Third_Age_Reforged. Exactly that.
Step 3: Download Third Age Reforged 0.9 part 1 (There are 2 parts)
Step 4: Double-click the downloaded file top open it. Now click the Extract To button in the top left corner of the WinRAR window. Now navigate and extract to the following path:
\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods
It will ask you if you wish to overwrite/replace the files. Click yes to all.
Step 5: Go to your Steam Library and right-click on Medieval II Total War, select Properties, and then Set Launch Options. Insert the following string:
--features.mod=mods/Third_Age_Reforged
Step 6: now you must download part 2"!!! (without part 2 you will be missing the ui and text folder.s..)
Step 7: Once you have done this, you will be able to launch the game by choosing the first option when launching the game on Steam. The option will simply say "Play Medieval II: Total War". This will override the default Medieval II game, so if you wish to launch the original game after installing the mod, simply remove the string from the Launch Options you inserted in Step 5.
Step 8: Choose download region on steam: UK London (the most used in the commuity)
Step 9: Lower your graphics to the LOWEST settings if your playing with more than 2 players.
Step 10: make sure that you read the readme in side the Third Age Reforged folder for a couple extra fixes.

Custom scenarios have been removed for now, and will be reintroduced at a later date once reworked with the new factions and units, etc.
We are proud to release this new standalone patch, we worked hard day and night to create a brand new balanced meta, 4 new factions", almost 100 new units", 5 brand new battle maps.
We look forward to improving the mod from this point on, the core has been created now and is stable, make sure to follow the install guide correctly in order for your game to run perfectly.
Wow the first Hobbit inspired Dale soldiers! Congrats on the release guys
thanks ^^
Downloading now coz I saw someone using it on multiplayer... I wanna play multiplayer sometimes :)
Thanks for making this :)
Also, will I still be able to play Third Age 3.2 campaign if I install reforged?
good thing my finals are over whoop whoop
Can i overwrite files or will i have to reinstall the Third Age Total War?
better to reinstall to be sure no compatability issues.
well Mods like these doesn t relly need the name change..as you use Medival Kingdoms file sloths (as crusaders, Tutonic etc, for the mods) so it like download these 3 older files..and then download the 3 "reforged" and install over the old files?
caus mine are like D/Steam/steamapps/Common/medival total war/kingdoms witch I use for other mods like SKyrim mod, Game of thrones mod I think.. so what I usaly do.. download the 3 first ones.. drag into a folder and then download the reforged and drag them into that.. and then u can just drag the stuff from folder, into an empty vanila folder from kingdoms, and press Play right? you mean for Medival folder, not Kingdoms? if you do it wrong.. well needs clean install and all.. so put mods into kingdoms folders are best. ( also don t rename them, caus game will crash..)
do i need third age to be able to play third age:reforged?
or can i just download the reforged files, and be able to play the game?
Yes you do third age 3.2 then reforged

Is it needed to use WinRAR or is it possible to do download/install like its done for third age 3.2?

Will this be playable in campaign in future?
This just crashes everytime I launch this.
So it keeps crashing on me... I read the readme file and when i looked there were no geography files to delete. What else is there to do?
