Worked great! Thanks so much for clearly spelling out this quick fix in a way that's easy to understand ♥♥♥♥ CA for releasing consistently broken games and then failing to create any effective support infrastructure.

To be honest it took me ages finding a solution for this.

I'm disappointed with the support from the official Total War Forums, why they couldn't just post a step by step process like this, is beyond me it's like they haven't properly beta tested their patch properly... Meh I dunno well I'm glad you guys have been able to solve this issue.

Happy Gaming!
