[@monsieurdargason6874]

So I downloaded the files, patches and all, extracted them directly into my Napoleon steam file, and when I launch the mod, the game starts and everything, but nothing on the menu changes, none of the Great War/WWI mod effects are there, it’s just normal Napoleon Total War, the single player menu gives an option for World War 1 Campaigns, but I open that and it only gives me Germany, Austria, the UK, and Russia. How would I go about getting the game to work properly?

This actually works!!! if you're still having trouble, MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW EVERYTHING HE DOES! especially the brain hurting *place the data folder & the patch into 'Napoleon Total War' Folder.* this did take me 2 tries to find out how to properly finish it. However I can't help notice during my campaigns, my game keeps crashing. if there is a way to fix this please tell.

[@AmbientAnalogue]

This mod just simply doesn't work, I followed you step by step. And it just simply refuses to either launch altogether or says files didn't transfer properly, maybe you should actually show how you're transferring files rather than just saying. "do it" or "copy it", because evidentally. That's not how it works

I've downloaded it and everything, but it wont let me launch it because it says "The launcher can't work without the path to Napoleon.exe, the program will quit now!", I am aware I am one of the densest people on the planet, and I wondered if it was because I still had some NTW3 files about, so I deleted all the ones I could find, and then tried running it again but it still failed.

no you extract the files to the data folder.

[@markriley2281]

You went from download straight to zip file, what happened in between?

[@joshuadiaz8333]

FOR THOSE NOT WORKING: make sure you drag the zip files over in the same manner as he did. I wasn't instead extracting them with the extract button and for whatever reason that didn't work . so, make sure youre dragging the zip files over to napoleon total war file. first the game file, then the patch file. If that doesn't work try uninstalling napoleon from steam, then delete the napoleon files on your PC, then go into your recycle bin and delete them there. then reinstall the game, boot it up normal one time. exit. and repeat this video step by step. hope this helps
