Ignore/delete this thread - fixed it with google :D
Hello all, I've installed EB1 again because I prefer EB1 when playing with cavalry-heavy factions like Nomads - I think horsies work better in EB1. Anyway I've always gotten CTD's after battles with EB1 and I believe it's because the game has a problem choosing only 1 quote from many, so I applied a fix which forum member fallen851 suggested to me a few years ago but which I have never tried until now. The fix is:
Replace all text in the file EB/Data/Text/quotes.txt with the following text:
¬ Localisation file for transition screen quotes
¬ Lines in brackets are not to be translated
{Quote_1}
I swear that so soon as age will permit I will use fire and steel to arrest the destiny of Rome.

Replace all text in EB/data/descr_quotes_lookup.txt with the following:
Quote_1
Author_1
Unfortunately this causes a CTD when loading the game. The 3 intro movies play, then the game CTD's before I get to the menu. Obviously this is because it isn't loading the quote for the menu. How would I fix this?
Thanks!
