# Medieval 2: Total War
Medieval 2: Total War is a game from the [Total War](https://www.totalwar.com)
series.
## Mods
### Third Age: Total War - Divide and Conquer
[Divide and Conquer](https://www.moddb.com/mods/divide-and-conquer) is a submod
for the [Third Age Total War](https://www.moddb.com/mods/third-age-total-war)
mod.
It is a Lord of the Rings themed mod, not only adding a large array of new
units, castles and factions, but converting it to a setting based in
Middle-earth.
The installation guide for this mods is based on
[Laetus'](http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?724777-Third-Age-and-Linux)
post in the Total War Center Forum .
For installation the latest version needs to be downloaded from
[MOD DB](https://www.moddb.com/mods/divide-and-conquer/downloads/).
Following this run the executable (`.exe`) file and select not the game but a
newly createt folder.
If you are on linux use [wine](../linux/wine.md) for this.
The executable will create many files in the directory.
The important files are located in a subdirectory called `mods`.
If you are on linux you need to rename all the files and directories under the
`mods` folder to lowercase.
This can be done by running
`find . -depth -exec perl-rename 's/(.*)\/([^\/]*)/$1\/\L$2/' {} \;` after
changing the working directory to the `mods` folder.
This concludes the extra steps for linux systems.
Rename the directory below the `mods` folder to `third_age`.
`third_age` now has to be moved to the modding folder of Medieval 2: Total War.
This folder named `mods` too can be found on the top level of the game
directory.
Lastly you need to change the launch options in steam.
Open `Properties` of Medieval 2: Total War and set the launch options under the
general tab to `--features.mod=mods/third_age`

### Errors with the Wine prefix of a specific game
The last ressort for fixing problems that are related to the wine prefix of a
game is to delete the Wine prefix.
For this the id of the steam game first has to be known.
This is done by navigating to the steam website or the community page of the
specific game.
The URLs will have one of the following forms where the game id can be read:
```
http://steamcommunity.com/app/<game id>/
http://store.steampowered.com/app/<game id>/
```
After that navigate to the place your steam games are stored.
You can remove `<steam location>/steamapps/compatdata/<game id>` to reset the
Wine prefix completely.
It is recommended to keep a backup of the folder containing the old Wine prefix
as it stores game saves and other important data, that can be useful.
