DCI: Last Alliance is a submod for Third Age: Total War, focused on the War of the Last Alliance in the Second Age of Middle-earth.
DCI Last Alliance installer instructions:
1. Download the files below
DCI: Last Alliance Public Beta Part 1of2 Download
DCI: Last Alliance Public Beta Part 2of2 Download
2. DCI_LA_BETA_Part1of2.exe and DCI_LA_BETA_Part2of2.exe have to be installed into the default installation path: "...\SEGA\Medieval II Total War"
or "...Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War" for Steam users. (If you have installed Medieval II into another folder, please check if the installation path is correct.)
The installation process will overwrite your TATW files, meaning that you will not be able to play TATW.
3. At the end of the installation for DCI_LA_BETA_Part2of2.exe a cleaner will delete files that need to be auto-generated at game launch, you'll be prompted to 'press any key to continue...'
4. After exiting the installer, a launcher for 'DCI: Last Alliance' will be created and added as a shortcut to your desktop, you will be prompted to 'press any key to continue...'
5. Once both parts are installed, double click the 'DCI Last Alliance' icon on your desktop to launch the mod. Alternatively double click the DCILA.bat file in your mod folder.
(DCILA_NoBaiSwitcher.bat will run DCI:LA without the battle AI switcher)
Optional: delete the Third Age Total War shortcut from your desktop
