![1 Extract 3]()
3. Check if the marked files/folder is extracted:![1 Extract 4]()
4. Double click on the Imperial.Splendour_Install.exe file (perhaps you need to give the file admin allowance or let windows access it. If a firewall window pops up, click on further information and allow the file to be executed. No worries these are just the windows defender settings for unknown files.)
(4.1) If you have not installed JAVA Runtime the installer will ask you to install it.
5. Follow the steps in the installer, most notably point the installer towards your "Empire Total War" folder. (NOT the "data" folder)![2 Installer 1]()

![3 Launcher 2]()
If it's not working please give us access to the content of your IS_Launcher.log file. It's in the [...]\Empire Total War folder
If this leads to no solution, do the following (all files should be in the \[...]\Empire Total War\IS_Files folder. If not extract the .zip again, the files are there in the IS_Files folder):
1. Move all ".pack" files into the \[...]\Empire Total War\data folder.
2. Move all ".esf" ".lua" and ".tga" files into the \[...]\Empire Total War\data\campaigns\imperial_splendour folder. If the "imperial_splendour" folder doesn't exist, create one.
3. Move the "user.empire_script.txt" file to the following folder: C:\document and setting\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Empire\script. If you can't find the folder, it's in a hidden folder. You have to enable "show hidden folders" in your OS.

noice
Thanks:)
*Visibly excited*
Thanks:)
well done guys, awesome mod!!!
Thank you very much:)
*CLICKING DOWNLOAD INTENSIFIES*
Thanks for playing it, I hope you'll enjoy the new version!
RotR need IS 2.2.1b?
No, it doesn't need 2.2.1b.
There seems to be some sort of a bug (I've played France so far for now) where when I tried to asked for a trade agreement with some of my allies like the ottomans, I get an alliance broken.
Thanks for the report, I'll look into this.
nice!! when playing france i can not recruit units in alsas Loraine
Provence..
This is strange, we'll take care of this.
Great mod, enjoying it!! Thank you!!
Great that you enjoy or mod:)
Playing as the US, I was unable to build an ordinance board. It said it required the technology "organized procurement" but it was nowhere to be found on my technology tree. Any thoughts? Everything else is working perfectly.
Thanks for the report, I'll look into this.
Same problem hope for patch soon :)
We are aiming for releasing 1.2 in April or May.
Is this save compatible with the previous version?
No, it's not. You need to bring your previous campaign to an end.
I can't see the names of the new Russian and Swedish units. I only have the types of units like (light infantry), (grenadiers), (line infantry) ect. I checked and the user.empire_script.txt has all the IS pack files.
You need to have the newest version of the patch_is_text.pack file and no other mod file with a localisation (.loc), usually named something with text shall be in your data folder.
Thanks! I had to manually install the mod so looks like I omitted that file.
Ok, I hope everything works now!
This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
Thank you very much for the update! I wait for more :))
There will be more. We are working on it;)
Olá, não sei se, você pode me entender, mas gosto muito deste jogo e estou com um problema. Ocorre que quando clico em play dentro do lauch do mod este me diz: "você precisa de um aplicativo para iniciar steam". Obs: meu jogo não possui steam!
Hello, I'm guessing this is either Spanish or Portuguese. Sadly none of the team speaks one of those languages. So I can't help you unless you post here in English.
Ok I'll try,
I do not know if you can understand me, but I really like this mod but I have a problem. It happens that when I click play inside the lauch of the mod and this tells me: "you need an application to start steam". Note: my game does not have steam! my excuses for bad gramatic. From Brasil
So is there a way to start the mod without steam? Please, help!
Yes, I explained how to install the mod without the launcher manually above in the description of the file (the emergency instruction after the tutorial for the installation with the launcher).
Looks great!
Is it normal that you start with many techs already researched?
Yes, the tech-trees represent changes happened in the 18th century so everything pre 1783 is already researched.
Thanks for the answer! I got used to it really quick and I love it :). It is challenging which is awesome.
But I have a little problem with my current savegame (danish 1789)
when the british take a turn it crashes (0xc0000005)...
do you have any suggestions? (I reinstalled already)
If not I will wait for the patch :)
Hi developers, my compliments for your mod it is very nice work,But i have found some problems like:where is the use constitution?why spanish have vanilla marines?where are the spanish and austrian campaign ?about the painting of ships ,why spanish dont have red and black But Only yellow and blue ?or french ship.... Why these dont have White and black But Only yellow etc etc ...?maybe Because this is beta version ?
1. The Constitution is a tech in the US philosophy tech-tree and a ship that is unlocked after the research of the Nava Act tech which requires the Constitution tech.
2. Spain and Austra aren't reworked yet.
3. The black and yellow hull painting was the most common hull paintings in the 18th century. We have done intense research for the hull painting and the French and Spanish used for most ships the black and yellow painting. Other paintings were rare or introduced later (black and white painting appeared in the French navy after 1800).
Correct ...well good work ,but always about the painting ...why yellow black and blue and not only black and yellow for the painting ?last thing what about spanish marines ?
The marines will be done once Spain is reworked.
For the blue colour, I have to ask our hull painter. So far I can't give you an answer.
So is this file a replacement for all the others? or Do i have to install all the others?
It could theoretically replace the old files, but I don't know if the installer / launcher can handle this.
Hello! First off Great mod! I've run into 2 errors. Non of which I can resolve with manually installing. First is that British troops don't have hands, and certain hats don't have texture to them. Second is that In "play battle" There are no early British units, and the French units are messed up. The only thing I can think of on my own is that I don't have the .tga files. They download as .paint files. Everything is installed to ProgramsFiles(86)
-Thank you!
1. Increase the unit detail, this will help.
2. About the early era units, I don't know if they were disabled, I have to look it up.
3. For the textures, are you sure the texture is missing because some hats are simply black?
Thank you for the reply. I'll try increasing the detail. The hats however are't black but rather blank white
If it's the British East India Company European infantry unit, then it's white because they wore white hats.
Hey, playing as the british, a lot of units lack descriptions, buildings have no names and when using diplomacy I often get "missing tooltip" instead of a response from the people I want diplomacy with. Is there a problem with my installation or is the mod still under development?
The lack of description is simply a lack of work done. If you want to create some for your favourite units feel free to do so, we will incorporate them.
And with which nations you have a "missing string" problem because that shouldn't happened?
Also the unit ranges are all messed up, elite british troops have 100 range while Indian irregulars have 130? And they completely dominate in ranged combat? I'm awfully confused if this is meant to be a feature or if my installation is messed up.
No your installation isn't messed up.
