- Make sure you have a clean copy of Rome Vae Victis.
- Find installation folder. For me with steam in windows 7 C:\Programfiles(86x)\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Europa Universalis Rome
- Patch it to 3.36b (Copy and paste patch files over the game files which will include over writing them.)
- Here is the trick. Start the game after patch install and before you install mod. It gives the patch a chance to load up were it suppose to go.
- Extract Reign of the ancients mod files to desktop.
- copy files inside Reign of the ancients folder and paste them in the game directory which will include over writing files.
- In the game directory delete all of the contents of the Rome\Map\cache\ folder, except for the province_textures folder.
- Delete all the texture files from the Rome\Map\cache\province_textures folder, however keep the now empty texture folder inside the cache folder after deleting the texture files inside this folder.
- copy Reign of the ancients folder and Image file and paste it in the mod folder.
- Use your game launcher to start up. pick the Mod from the drop down list.
- Start the game. During load the game will load all the files you deleted and it will work.
I hope my effort helped others.
Did several test again and it worked following those steps.
good luck and enjoy the game.
