Okay, so you want it but have no clue where to get the files. Well, your best bet is off moddb; Scroll down, ignore all the marketing:P until you get to the Download Links bit. You'll get 3 files off there: 1) The 3.0 part 1 installer 2) The 3.0 part 2 installer, and 3) The 3.2 patch installer. They are large files (by my standards:P) totally about 4GB in size; that's why you need a decent internet connection.:P You may get a message saying you need to be a member.

Shut that message, and click on the Download button again. Then quickly (before the message comes up) click on the 'Try another mirror' text at the top right of the popup. From that you can pick a mirror that DOESN'T require a membership. You also want [www.twcenter.net]. That's the original topic you can read, however [www.dropbox.com] has all the files you need. This is a rather puny file in the order of 0.1MB, something even MY internet could download in less than an hour.:P But what's this?.rar?

What is THAT? Is it a bit like a.zip? To extract it you can do one of three things: 1) Google.rar extractor and get the least trustworthy site available (not recommended:P) 2) [www.7-zip.org]. 3) [www.legroom.net]. Either way, you'll have the files out in no time. Start the first.exe installer: that's 3.0, part 1. Read the license, click yes, click next, until it comes up with the spot where you want TA to be installed.

It will come up with something funny ranting about SEGA by default. That's because they haven't bothered updating it for Steam users. You want this to go to your Steam directory. That's by default 'C: Program Files Steam SteamApps common Medieval II Total War.'

However, anybody either a) with Vista or b) is sensible will have moved the game directory out of Program Files as Microsoft doesn't want you meddling there. If you can't be bothered moving it, it's okay. It's just you'll have to click 'Yes' several times to various security things. Anyway, you're up to entering the directory bit in. You want it to go to the folder that looks like this: You'll see how it says 'Medieval II Total War' up the top.

(Zambezi is the drive I use for storage, deal with it:P) So if you want it to go to this folder, you'd type in something like this: If it comes up and tells you 'This folder doesn't exist. Do you want the directory to be created,' do NOT click Yes: You've done something wrong. You do NOT want to install it into the 'mods' folder. That will create ANOTHER sub-folder called 'mods' and you'll have to do a lot of working around that.
