Hello all,
I am having installation trouble and would appreciate any help. I bought Anno 1404 Gold Edition from GoG, and made sure that the Venice addon was up to date (version 2.1). I have installed the mod a dozen times but it never shows up in the game / appears to have any impact. After failed attempts through following the instruction, I tried other ways of installing it such as:
Running both the mod installation and the game As Administrator
Opening the directory and installing inside the folder (I know your'e not supposed to, I'm trying anything)
Installing the mod and files inside the game directory
I downloaded the games install files Separate from Gog Launcher and installed manually on my computer, also using the same steps above.
I even bought Anno 1404 Venice Edition Addon disc on Ebay just to see if I could install the addon separately and try modding there; which failed because it states "the setup has detected no version of anno 1404".
Am I missing something here? Steam offers the history edition, although it has poor reviews and I am skeptical to spend any more money to make this work ... but I really want this to work. Perhaps the Gold Edition offered through GoG requires a different installation method? I honestly don't know anymore. Well, thanks for anyone who reads this. The mod looks amazing, I hope to get to the bottom of this.
