Total War: 1942 Installer: (you won't need the other files below the installer, but i'll keep them in case you prefer the old way of installing - you may need the Large Address Aware patch found in the patch below.):
Download Total War: 1942 - Launcher - Mod DB
Download Total War : 1942 v1.0 (Release) - Mod DB
Install the FIX by placing the data-folder inside of the main Total War: 1942 directory - click yes on overwriting all the files.
Changes:
1. Quote-file fix - there were two duplicate entries of one of the Authors, one using a Greek name - the Greek author has now been replaced with the proper WW2 author.
2. About 8 forgotten units have been added to the recruitment in the EDB.
3. Mercenary units have been added as regionals, previously they were only in custom battles for the "Neutral" faction.
4. Unit-cards fixed for the mercs in use by the Germans, Turkey, French Republic and the British.
5. descr_strat inside of world/maps/campaign/barbarian_invasion has been edited - all the static one-man Soviet generals (usually one general with one or two extra units) have been removed.
- Leonid/SalothSar wants them in the mod, as the mod isn't finished i decided to remove them from my version and added the file here for anyone who doesn't want them - they will be re-added later when all the factions have many starting generals with their own forces.
Currently i felt they were just annoying in the campaign as i have zero patience for fighting 30 one-unit armies. - If you still want them do not replace the descr_strat and click "overwrite" manually for each file.
That is about it - happy playing!
Large Address Aware:
I do suggest you to patch the .exe with the large address aware-patch. Almost no crashes for me so it might be needed- patch the Rome TW and R-Barbarian Invasion .exe.
The patch makes the game able to load more than 2gb of RAM - without it older games are limited to 2gb which will cause heavy lag or instability/crashing.
With the patch the ram is increased to 4gb meaning more stability and no lag on modern computers. Can still crash - but rarely.
DLL-file:
Place in the main Rome Total War directory. File might be needed for some users if it is missing.
Movie swapper:
Included as a bonus - use to get the TW:1942 video intro - place the file in the R:TW main directory.
