Joshua Hayden Well I have Windows for starters, I'm not sure what the procedure would be for a Mac. I downloaded "Realplayer" which allowed me to download the video straight from here. Then I used the realplayer converter (which comes with Realplayer) to convert the file into a ".wmv" file. Then I put the .wmv file, this video, in its own special folder. Then when I go to settings to choose my screen saver from that dropdown menu, I selected "photo gallery". Right beside the dropdown menu there is a "settings" button as well, this is where you tell your computer to use the aforementioned folder, with this video in it, to draw its "pictures" from. I hope that helps.

It might sound creepy or sinister, but it is actually a Catholic prayer, Kyrie Eleison which means "Lord Have Mercy" in Greek. I still see it being sung in Catholic masses.
Gyrosmeister Yes it does kinda sound orthodox but I really don't know much about hymns and religious studies so I practically have a disadvantage here.
Ever Since I started playing Medieval 2 Total war a few years ago, I've spent more hours playing it than GTA5, GTA Online, and Fallout 4 combined. M2TW is just so damn good.

On my way to Lithuania
Such a unique vibe to this
brings tears to my eyes. oh the nostalgia
I’m so glad this got recommended ahhh the nostalgia
Damn man, this main menu music is incredible. I would like to have a extended version of this music.
Back when Total War had that realistic, gritty feel to it
Well, the Teutons are really the warriors of chaos.
They were a German Catholic order and their helmets had germanic designs
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teutonic_Order
back when medieval games had that Dark Ages feel of the early period.
The music and background is such a perfect combination.
I'm reinstalling the game right now!
did you enjoy it
Good memories, what a game!
I think that the same CA saw this and put something similar in ATTILA
it works really good.
man this song and the army walking to the war is just pure amazing FAK i love Medieval total wars !

KUPIE = Lord
ELEN = Mercy
OOV = ¿?
Ektor, what mean elenoov?
@@palomo9385 Hey, "ελέησον" is imperative case and means "have mercy/bless (us)".
Golden age of total war music
I listen to this when I play conan exiles kinda has a touch to it love the medieval feel to it

I could literally sit and watch this for hours, not even click to start a game, just watch the main menu
The bass-y guitar line makes the whole track.
All of Christendom will be awed by te Medieval III we are waiting for
something about that cathedral vocal music is creepy yet appealing
omg the memories of my childhood
I recognize it. It's in Greek language saying (Κύριε ελέησον) which means God have mercy us. Maybe a byzantine choir
It's Catholic

Worthy of a 10hours Mix
Never played the game but this is definitely one of the most badass main menu i've seen
My favourite Tota War menu interface and music
This what I call holy music
Disciplined, staunch Catholic, hard, devout/fanatic and loyal
Something you can't find anymore in the modern world... Or you have to seek really hard
Amazing soundtrack.
I wish we would get a remaster of this gem
You know I've been listening to this theme for years, but only now I noticed they're chanting in Greek! XD
