Some regions have the patch installing the unpacker in a different part of your M2TW folder. If it happens in a second then something is wrong.Īlso, make sure the unpacker is in tools\\unpacker. It should take quite a while to run as there are 7 gigabytes of files to unpack. you will have to type Y to all the questions to use it. The only batch file you have to use is unpack_all.bat. Don’t worry, you don’t have to use these. First it’s a load of files you don’t often see. Using the file unpacker that comes with the patch can be a little confusing.

When you install Kingdoms, it automatically installs version 1.4 of Kingdoms. Patch 1.5 is only for the Kingdoms expansion. If you install Kingdoms, your M2TW game is automatically patched to 1.3. It is a small patch and won’t take long to install. Obviously, this would only apply to vanilla Medieval 2: Total War games. Patch 1.3 was released so that players without the Kingdoms expansion would be able to play online against players with Kingdoms installed. So there is no need to install patch 1.1 again. After that install Patch 1.2 straight on top. I recommend that you uninstall M2TW before applying the patch by running the uninstall procedure and then going to where you installed it, deleting the SEGA folder (or the Medieval 2 Total War folder if you have another game in the SEGA folder)Īnd then reinstall. NOTE: Many people have had problems installing this patch and M2TW not working. I know it’s obvious, but some do make that mistake. Remember, install it to your main M2TW folder, not your data folder. You may find it easier to use a friend’s computer which has broadband but even then it takes a minimum of 45 mins.
