Installation Guide

1) After downloading Roar of Conquest, unzip the folder.

2) When you have unzipped the folder, find the location of your mod folder in Medieval II Total War on your computer. It should look something like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods

3) Drag the Roar of Conquest folder into the mod location in Medieval II. Once you're done, the file location should look like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods\ROC LMA VIII

4) When you open ROC LMA VII in it's location, you can create a shortcut by right-clicking on the file 'ROC LMA VIII' application, and then selecting the option 'create shortcut', provided you have done the following:

• Go into you Medieval II folder, C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War, and scroll down until you find a file marked medieval2 and listed as the file type application.
• Right click on it and select the option "create copy", then paste the copy in the same location.
• Right click on the copy to rename it, and type in the new name kingdoms.
• Viola, the mod should now work! For a more visual presentation on how to do this, watch this video here: How to Install Roar of Conquest: The Late Middle Ages VII

Included in this upload is the map reset batch file. If your campaign does not seem to be loading properly, try running this batch file first and see if it fixes the problem.

The mod also included a Large Address Aware app along with a text file, title 'LAA', instructing you how to use it. Basically, the file allows your game to use more memory than the original Medieval II engine allowed, which prevents your game from crashing because your campaign or battle exceeds the hardcoded memory limitations of the original game.

And now you are done! I hope you enjoy the game; now, go forth and conquer!

Note: This update is not save-game compatible. If you have installed a previous version of the mod, this update will replace that version entirely.

Also, if you are having trouble getting the mod to run, please try to 'run as administrator'; it is the most common fix for this problem. Now, have fun, and go forth and conquer!

If you are experiencing any crashes or problems in your mod, please locate the 'system.log' file located here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Medieval II Total War\mods\ROC LMA VIII. Open the file using Notepad, and then copy whatever text is on the log. Please paste the log report at this Discord link: ROC Discord under the text channel roc_bug_reports
