The Great War mod is a total conversion modification for Napoleon: Total War. It creates an authentic representation of World War 1-era tactics, strategies and general warfare within the game. Including stunning new visuals that include entirely new models and textures for equipment, vehicles and more, the mod immerses you into the era with brand new gameplay unlike anything you've experienced in Total War before.

Description

Re-upload of the 5.1.4 patch, last patch was uploaded when I was drunk and so there were... problems. Many apologies. NOTICE: This includes all patches leading up to 5.1.4. If you're planning a fresh install of TGW, you ONLY need to install 5.1 and 5.1.4.

And before that I had no unity in my sections.

That will be an installation error or because you have no updated NTW to the latest patch. Start again and be careful. It does work.

If you have ntw on steam doesn't it automatically update your games when steam is restarted? If so, my ntw should be updated but this campaign crashing is still an issue. Just upon selecting campaign it crashes, but everything else seems ok.

Still crashes on battles. It last longer, I can actually play the battle for 10 mins but still CTD.

Try different (i.e. much lower) graphics settings, and use the vanilla custom battle maps. If it doesn't ctd, you're having crashes related to memory shortages.

I have a gtx 680 with 2gb,8gb corsair vengeance ram and a i5 3570k. I am very confident the problem is not my computer. All I have done is custom battles because of crash issues with the campaign in previous iterations.

My advice stands, but if you're averse to momentarily lowering your graphics settings, then you can try playing with different units/factions until it stops CTDing. And preferably, telling us which units/factions, if any, cause the CTD.

I have played most of them but generally I play the germans vs russia. I did try lowering my graphics it still CTD with custom battles but it doesn't have issues with the campaign battles which has me crazy confused as to why.

Some of the custom made battle maps have a very high memory loading. Because programs like N:TW normally cannot exceed a certain memory limit imposed on it by the operating system (if I recall correctly the exact limit is dependent on whether the system is 32-bit or 64-bit), the program will eventually crash if too many things are going on at once, regardless of computer 'specs'. Though why this seems to be related to sound effects, only artillery (in some cases) etc. we can't exactly answer.

Is there no readme included in the download? If not, that's an oversight on our part.

Assuming you're using the launcher rather than manual installation, copy/replace the newly downloaded .pack files over those found in your TGW mod folder. Also, copy/replace the newly downloaded campaign folder (which includes ww1_main) over your data/campaigns folder.

Yes, that's a known issue that we unfortunately didn't get to with this patch. The game automatically disbands any unit with less than 5 soldiers after a battle.

Will that be fixed anytime? Would really make a difference in the campaign, which is quite good (though buggy) otherwise at this point.

Hey, I know this is random, but do you think you can make a WWII mod? Like a mod for some future game, or for this game. It would be awesome if you could.

WWII would not suit Total War games because the warfare style was totally different. World War 2 was not large scale pitched battles, it was mostly ambushes, city warfare etc...

But There could be a WWII mod, because I don't want to play that game because the warfare style. If I want a game with good warfare style I would choose CoH. I want a WWII Total War game because it could be really good. But you are right. And the planes would be really hard to do.

Couldn't this be fixed very easily by just setting the number of crew members per tank to five or more?
The fact that they disappear renders them pretty much useless as it is.

I fixed it by going to the dB and editing the unit stats. I increased the number of men per unit from 4 to 6 for tanks as well as MG bunkers. Now they don't dissappear.

I extracted and installed the mod like it told me to and the 5.1.4 launcher works but when i start the game it allways goes on the original Napoleon (main menu background is from the original and the units) with a ww1 campaing in there. But it allways crashes when it loads a battle/campaing. Did i install it wrongly or?
