It can be handy for people who go back and forth from the game to theirdesktop.-mod:folder Also known as the Mod:Switch, this is one of a modders best friends. This is used to tell the game to look in the folder specified and use the gamefiles in there rather than those in its original folders. This allows you to play a modified version of the game without altering the original game files,so that the vanilla game is still playable as well. The example above shows the switch being used to tell the game to look in the Amazon folder. Lookfor a full article explaining how to implement Mod:Switch.-strat:campaignname This tells the game to skip all the preliminary menus and immediately start the game using the campaign specified.is the name of the sub-folder found in your RTWDataWorldMapsCampaign folder that the campaign you want to run is in. For example,-strat:imperialcampaign will start the game to the regular single player campaign of RTW. Normally this will begin the game to the Julii campaign.However, this can be changed by first editing the RTWDataWorldMapsCampaignImperialCampaigndescrstrat.txt file and moving all the factions exceptthe one you want to play under nonplayable.

The game will then automatically begin a new campaign with the only remaining playable faction.-enableeditor This turns on the Historical Battle Editor. To run the Editor, start the game and go to Options, then Battle Editor.-moviecam This command line lets you use the movie cam, often used for getting screenshots at exclusive angles, generally below headheight.

Down arrow key: Exact opposite of Up arrow key. Left and Right arrows keys: Swivels the camera left and right respectively.

A complete tutorial on how to create sprites can be found.New to Command Lines and Switches?For those of you new to the world of using switches, they are a variable that you can add onto the end of the command line that starts an application,telling it to do something specific when it starts up.

You can find your command line by going to the shortcut you use to start the game and right-clickingon it. A new box will pop up, and in it left-click on Properties. This will bring up a new window called Rome Total War Properties with three tabs acrossthe top. Select the Shortcut tab, and you will see the following (note that your 'Target' and 'Start In' fields will probably indicate slightly differentfolders than mine, as I did not use the default installation path):The 'Start In' field tells you what folder your game is located in.

What we are interested in is the 'Target' field however. That displays the command lineof the game. A command line is simply the folder the application is located in along with the executable file used to run it, all together in one long stringthat is enclosed by quotation marks.The switch is something we add to the end of that string in the 'Target' field. Do not alter the string itself, rather make a space after it, then enter yourswitch. If adding multiple switches make sure there is a space between each. It will probably become too long to display the entire thing in your target box.If so you can scroll from one side to another simply by putting your cursor in the box and using the arrow keys on your keyboard to move it from side to side.Here is an example of the -showerr and -nm switches being used:When you are finished click on Ok and you will be all set. If you make a mistake, simply click on cancel and it will close the window without saving anything.Just reopen it and try again.
