Try just the first two parts first and see if it works without the patch. Make sure to completely remove the install and get a fresh download. I've had similar issues where somewhere in downloading (I think), a file gets lost. Took me three or so tries before it finally started working.

Honestly remember in ODST when first starting a CoOp campaign, that each player would spawn in their own pod scattered across that first courtyard area. You'd have to fight a small crowd and meet up and start your adventure. I've always thought it'd be neater to be scattered across the entire CITY, and have to stealth/shoot your way to find each other and link up, and finish the fight/resistance for the city. Looks like I can finally make that happen. Especially if the New Mombasa terrain comes out. Very excited for this mod! Really hoping you guys keep it going!

Gotta watch those copyrights XD We don't speak of the "Crown of Light" and the Microsoft gremlins stay in their caves.

Built a new computer and wanted to re install. After downloading everything I went to start the installer but after giving permission to make changes I get a little error window that just says "The file contains invalid data" and that's the end of the discussion :/

I do use steam, my new PC has Win7(64bit) instead of Vista, I have downloaded both off the Moddb mirrors and the Gamefront alternate mirrors. I've also made sure both M2TW and Kingdoms are installed and work just fine with a few games in each. Can't really chalk this up to install issues or files, since the installer just doesn't open as a whole...

Really enjoyed this on my old PC. If anyone still monitors this, I'd love help. Thanks!

YES! I'd lost my Kingdoms Disc, so I couldn't play, and now The Last Days mod for Mount and Blade has this retarded Save=corruption bug that can't be fixed. So Steam saves the day with M2TW on sale! I'm back to crushing the dark forces of Sauron!

I always thought the Edelweiss looked more like a cross between a Tiger II and an ARL 44

Don't agree with all the "Give him a .50" comments. Most snipers don't like the bigger rifles. They're heavy, loud, and kick up a lot of dust or snow at your position. The 300 Winmag is an example of a more preferred sniper rifle.

really cool. Did the anti-infantry only have two barrels? Maybe add the tower versions?

I had this problem a while back. It's not Third Age, something's gone wrong with your Kingdom Expansion(s), particularly if you are using Gold. Not really sure what I did to fix it earlier, I just went through the Total War forums a bit, then wiped Medieval II clean off my PC before re-installing. Last resort though. Before you do anything, try running Medieval II. If that works (Which it did for me), run one of your Kingdoms expansions. If that still works, I'm not sure then, try checking around Third Age more, but if it doesn't, I pity the DRM nightmare you find yourself in, as I had the same. Good Luck!

You could read the article. Says they used pink-heavily armed Jeeps, and the photo caption says post-WW2 era landrover.

Srry, can't help u there, to me, a computer means click the download button, wait like 5 minutes, click the new icon, and play. That's about as technical as it gets for me. I'd love to help, but I don't think I'd know how. I might try to make some maps, but I really just now installed C&C3 after my PC fried last month.

Like the medic idea, maybe the Engineers could use a carbine, or at least a less powerful semi-auto rifle? They see, a bit more combat oriented than mechanics, and it would be a bit more true to the original.

Very Cool! Please don't let this die like the CoH mod did(?). I'd love to see something come out from this series, even if SEGA can't do it themselves. Maybe the Scrin will be replaced by the Feds in the distant future? I'm noty rushing or anything, by all means, get your feet on the ground first, but it might be a possibility.

tallcaddell - - 15 comments @ OUTDATED v1.6 DOWNLOAD v1.7 AUTO-INSTALLER

... May just be user error (Not the most tech savy, just like the mods) but when i download this, the file only has data and icons, no game. When I type in the stuff for the shortcut, .exe at the end dosent work, the closest I can get is .ico (which brings up a lovely but otherwise unentertaining image of your icon). Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can tell you guys put a lot into it and I'd love to see how it runs. 101st Airborne FTW!

Can I get this w/out having to get some RAR file decoder? This looks epic, and I love CoH mods, but I cant... 'unpack?' .RAR files...
