This will not harm or affect the users game in any way. There is a work around – if the user manually deletes the file steam_appid.txt from the above directory it will work correctly, however if they launch via the Tools menu in Steam the file will be re-generated. If the user then attempts to process a campaign start_pos through BOB it will NOT generate the start_pos.esf file because Rome2 will crash before it is able to start the process. If the user launches the Assembly Kit through the Tools section of Steam it will generate a file called steam_appid.txt in Ĭ:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Total War Rome II\assembly_kit\binaries Those who have newer Nvidia graphic cards should give a try worked for me.

Once the Assembly Kit is installed via the tools menu in Steam, users can find all the tools here in their Rome II root folder: Scroll down to Total War: ROME II – Assembly Kit BETA and double-click to install. To download the Assembly Kit, open your Steam client, and click Library->tools.
