Hello @lejonet
Can you try verifying integrity of game files? It looks like your a missing some files :slight_smile:
Thanks for your report!

Hey @Felizon89,

I have indeed used the function that verifies the integrity of files. Moreover, I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the game in its entirety.

Your support would be most appreciated!

It is also noteworthy that this issue first manifested itself a couple of days after installing and playing Return of Rome.

I recommend you to try some stuff:

  1. Deleting your user files. For deleting your user files, you should:

a. Make sure that your Steam Cloud is disabled in Steam, AoE2 game, Properties, General.

b. Go to C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Games\Age of Empires 2 DE.

c. Copy your user folder to a safe place, it has lots of numbers.

d. Delete the original folder

e. Verify your files in Steam, AoE2 game, Properties, Local Files.

f. Open the game again. A new user folder will be created.

If this works, then copy back the files from your old user folder. Those files are in the folder -C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Games\Age of Empires 2 DE<0>\Savegame, Recorded Games and Save games.

I have followed your instructions quite carefully.
