View Full Version : EB v1.1 released!
Greetings Europa Barbarorum fans.
https://img512.imageshack.us/img512/4640/11announcementsi1.jpg
Again an update on EB, voted the "Favourite RTW mod". The changes in this version may be fewer and less extensive than what you have become accustomed to when there is a release of EB, but we still believe there will be something new that everyone will enjoy.
Probably, there won't be many new features in future versions of EB1. We will continue making voice mods, which will be used in both EB1 and EB2, and fixing bugs as they get reported. But most of our efforts will now go to getting EB2 to a playable state. We have vacuumed the mod communities for great artists to take advantage of the options M2TW offers us, so you can expect fantastic improvements there!
Instructions on downloading and installing as well as Download links will follow and further down is a list of the major additions and changes to Europa Barbarorum. Note that you may have to download a video codec (http://www.codec-download.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=51) to see the EB intro movies.
Many people outside EB deserve a big "Thank You!" for helping us out, particularly the beta testers who have been a great help in spotting and killing bugs. Our beta testers for this round have been Hax, Konny, Mcantu, MiniMe, Obelics, Sassem, Stone and Blood, Taliferno and Wolfman25. Also they have come up with suggestions and done some work for us, particularly Sassem's work on the resources and disasters requires a commendation.
Some of the new units (Orditon, Nuraghi and Liby-Phoenician) would not have been made without the help of Halie Satanus. Many apologies for forgetting about you at first.
As for new music, we would like to thank Musica Romana (http://www.musica-romana.de/) for graciously allowing us to use some of their work, and The Persian Cataphract for creating some new pieces for us that we will explain in detail soon! We would also like to again thank our soundtrack composers, Morgan Casey (http://morgancasey.com) and Nick Wylie (http://nickwylie.com), for their great work which serves as the musical foundation for the entire mod, and Prehistoric Music Ireland (http://prehistoricmusic.com) for aiding us with music for our "barbarian" culture group.
Download & Installation
A complete list of mirrors can be found on our website's Download section (https://www.europabarbarorum.com/downloads_mod.html). We strongly recommend people to use BitTorrent or ED2K to download EB to conserve bandwidth, but also as torrent provides better transfer speeds once a couple of people have downloaded part of it. Please consider seeding EB after downloading unless you pay per amount of traffic.
Some quicklinks: (will be updated as more mirrors are available)

----------
Installation
First make sure you have a clean RTW 1.5 installation on your computer. This is to make absolutely certain old files or directories won't cause problems for the EB installation.
Double-click the EB installer file and follow the instructions on screen.
The installation process gives you the option to install a number of supporting tools and the "modesty patch", which adds loincloths to the naked units. The modesty patch is NOT recommended, however, and is provided purely as a service to those who must appease parents, and for anyone who is uncomfortable with pixelated genitalia.
WARNING: This will overwrite all naked warrior units in your build!!
----------
If you encounter any problems please use the Bugs & Tech forum (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=127) and report any errors there instead of in this thread.
As bug fixes become available, we'll be posting them in that forum. So, look into that from time to time.

As my first post, I would like to state that this is the best game I have ever played! Not mod, mind you, but game, since indeed it blows Vanilla completely out of the water.
As for v1.1, flippin sweet! The bad news is I have lots of homework this week (that apparently won't be getting done).
Thanks for the great work everybody.

All right, Bovi. Pezhetaroi already pulled this on us once. THIS HAD BETTER NOT BE A JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :furious3: :furious3: :furious3:
Still, looks like the real thing and looks great(now I gotta go beg my friend to download it for me again). Quick question: Will my 1.0 savegames be compatible? Otherwise I'll definitely be waiting a while.

Also, I'm disappointed you put this up during (Orthodox) Lent, when I decided to give up playing computer games. *sigh*
Though on the bright side, this means that by the time I play it, there will be bug fixes:-)

Thanks again for the best mod ever.
But what to do???? Play on or download.
Haha my ETA was One year, 236 days when it first started downloading... No thank you, I've waited long enough.
Its really too bad I just played 30 years of a new Romani campaign, but right now I'm just too excited to care!
Now to spend the rest of the day deciding which faction to play as...
Thanks for renewing my love affair for EB (like it was ever gone)

Seriously guys, I don't get this complaining about timing. Noone is forcing you to abandon your 1.0 campaign. Just make a new copy of RTW 1.5 and install EB 1.1 into that, and you have separate installations of both versions.
The Casse invasion is a scripted invasion of Belgium when the AI is Casse and has taken all of Britain and Ireland. We hope it will make the AI Casse more interesting in spite of the AI's aversion to naval invasions.
Strategos Alexandros
04-07-2008, 20:54
Does it spawn stacks for them or encourage them to invade?
I think perhaps I'll leave that up to you to discover.

I can´t believe this! Ever minute since 7 minutes after you put this on I´ve been trying to download but the page just won´t show, I´m guessing because of the bandwidth, but still, 3 hours of constant attempts should have gotten me somewhere, especially as it can´t have been that many people trying to download it before me.
Do you have that eDonkey client?
Khazar_Dahvos
04-07-2008, 21:04
when I install 1.1 do I need to get rid of 1.0 first or can i install it over it.
Are the Lusotana and Getai more aggressive now? The Lusotana would typically take two nearby cities and then remain idle, the Getai would remain idle indefinitely(or atleast until 240bc). Casse only attacked the British rebels once in my Lusotana campaign. Also, the rebels aren't nearly as aggressive as some people say they are, they will not siege towns that are 1 cell away.
I'm using BI.exe(1.0 with all fixes)
when I install 1.1 do I need to get rid of 1.0 first or can i install it over it.
It's recommended that you do get rid of 1.0 and install 1.1 on a clean install.

Great news! thanks for the hard work EB team.
Lusos should get off easier due to this change:
* Reduced the frequency at which Moskon's army appears in the Celtiberian alliance script, and set his age to 60 years.

Try to use another browser. And make sure you've installed a bittorrent client or ed2k client, respectively.

The Getai are one of the largest factions in my game. I think it's hard to instigate the factions to aggression. Sometimes the AI just sucks.
And I'm interested in hearing exactly what the Casse invasion is. It sounds good, because the Casse are chilling on a united British Isles with 3 and a half full stacks but can't get across to wreck the Sweboz.

Appears as if a "sick day" will be of the order tomorrow. I guess paullus wasn't bluffing when he said...and I'll paraphrase.."When there is a layer of pollen on my vehicle, that usually means one of 2 things. Either an EB release is imminent or my local government has to ease up on the water restrictions."
Well there's only one thing to say to that......
Would you prefer one coat of wax, good sir, or two?

that varies from campaign to campaign, in my current, (or i guess now my ex :laugh4: ) campaign as the pahlava by 260 getai has taken 3 cities, yes thats right, 3 cities by 260, and in another one luso has has all of iberia and are kicking averni butt in gaul by 220...so im not sure if it has anything to do with the AI, it´s has more to do with chance then anything, i guess... though i could very well be wrong. the nomads are the only ones who never seems to have a fighting chance in my campaign, but it looks like that will change!:2thumbsup:
my only worry is, should i start a new pahlava campaign or try that karthadastim campaign i had sworn off ´till 1.1? hmmm
anyway, thanks for this EB team!
EDIT to slow...need to speed up my typing.
Lusos should get off easier due to this change:

They never make it that far in my campaign, they usually just take the two closest cities and remain idle for the rest of the campaign.
The Getai are one of the largest factions in my game. I think it's hard to instigate the factions to aggression. Sometimes the AI just sucks.
I've never seen them take any cities, they just remain at their capital, I think it's due to the fact that they are at peace with rebels, as is Casse.
Do you two use Rome.exe or BI.exe?
Seriously guys, I don't get this complaining about timing. Noone is forcing you to abandon your 1.0 campaign.
dont pay so much attention to those. i for instance was waiting for 1.1 since November (thought it'd come on Christmas and quit playing, uninstalling 1.0 all together) with clean RTW copy sitting on HD. and now its finally here!
thanks:thumbsup:

I´m using BI right now, and have used 1.5, never noticed any difference with expansion, that i can be sure of is because of the .exe, except some naval invasions with BI.

Well they are the Luso they can't be expected to take over spain in every game, but given a few decades they can do some awsome stuff. Check out the AI Expansion thread. I had one game with EB 1.0 RTW.exe where they took over all of Iberia, half of splain, and was in the process of pushing Rome out of the alps and containing it to italy. But as cool as it was I wouldn't want that in my game everytime that would just be to strange.
4.4% downloaded! So forgive my lack of knowledge in ancient language but where I can expect some of these new units to be showing up? (I mean besides the obvious Rhode Slingers and Caledonian Nobles)

So you're saying that to get 1.1 i need to completly uninstall EB? :dizzy2:

I don't think any of us thought 1.0 would be so stable really - if it had not been we would have had a 1.01 or something a lot sooner, but we thought it could wait given the overall stability of the 1.0 release.
This v1.1 is a bit bigger than v1.0; as an understatement.

i must play 1.1. *sofort* :2thumbsup:

This v1.1 is a bit bigger than v1.0; as an understatement.
A lot of new music for Roman faction campaigns and for Eastern/Nomadic/EastGreek campaigns too probably makes up for the biggest single chunk of that space I think.
Well, all I need now is to move v1.1 from my laptop to the external and from there to my really, really, really fast PC, which I will not trust to run wild on the net.

Hi guys,
Thanks for this!! Can't wait to get going on it after I finish my Romani campaign.
Two Queries:
Question 1: Do we still need to install Oppida fix and the other fixes listed in tech help or have those been incorporated into the latest version?
Question 2: Is this playable with Alex.exe?? has anyone tried?
Bests and thanks again!

I guesss I'll have to wait for the filefront link to download. BitTorrent takes hours longer, and it seems to slow down my computer.
Unless anyone knows something faster than BitTorrent (currently using BT 6.0.3)?

I must say finding out EB 1.1 is out is a wonderful birthday gift:balloon2:
Question 1: Do we still need to install Oppida fix and the other fixes listed in tech help or have those been incorporated into the latest version?
Question 2: Is this playable with Alex.exe?? has anyone tried?
Bests and thanks again!
1) No. They have been incorporated.
2) Yes

I thought this was a late april fools, but then the torrent link worked! can't wait to try out the new changes, especially the new horse + client ruler changes. :iloveyou:
Seriously guys, I don't get this complaining about timing. Noone is forcing you to abandon your 1.0 campaign. Just make a new copy of RTW 1.5 and install EB 1.1 into that, and you have separate installations of both versions.
I don't know about anyone else but I thought it was clear I was totally kidding.

2 Q's:
1-is this save game compatible?
No. See the various posts above yours asking/answering the same question.
2-has the unit limit been reached?
Again, no - for quite simple reasons: where are we going to pull the slots from for the new factions in EB2 if we stuff EB1 with all units, and M2TW offers the exact same amount of unit slots?
3-why is Torrent giving me wierd script? can someone tell me how to use it? can it be on rapidshare or file front as well :beam:
It's not a weird script: it's a file containing instructions & checksums for your torrent client software to interpret. So you should obviously not open this file with any ordinary text editor or some such thing: you need to use special client software or a browser which supports the bittorrent protocol.
Details are found among the stickies (a quick guide to torrents) on these fora.
4-is this all a cruel joke? am I dreaming?:dizzy2: :dizzy2:
Yes it is. :grin:
EDIT: Oh, and also you numbered your questions one thru four ... so why '2 Q's', then? ~;)

Which two of them do you want answered :clown:?
1. No. No. No. NO. NO. Still no. Stop asking already.
2. No, but it's close. There will probably be no more units in EB1.
3. Install a bittorrent client. Google it.
4. It might be. You might be.

People, new versions are very rarely compatible with older ones. If anything you should look out for a note specifically saying it is, otherwise assume it's not.
Which is why I'm working on my own mini-mod to start the game in 250BC, rather than 272BC.
I'm not in a hurry to start 1.1, I'll wait for the early bugs/hotfixes and whatever else to come out before jumping in. In a week or two things should have settled down.
Great stuff!

It's because I am only allowed to post every two seconds or so - but here goes at last:
Torrent *is* a real download option. It always starts out with horrendous estimations which quickly improve as you get more and more pieces.
If you tried downloading this from a VERY fast server you might get a sustained 150kb/s download speed ~5000 secs or close to 1 and half hour.
However. If you use torrent (and this is no joke) you may easily get up to 600kb/s downloading speed whenever a seed is close by.
Finally torrent downloads in chunks, so any estimate is rough to say the least.

No.
Even using all the tricks to get more speed out of torrents, my download speed has never gotten anywhere near 50kb/s, much less the levels in your baseless claim about the supposed superiority of torrents.

I noticed this thread which has an EB installer for BI, and I was wondering if I could use it for 1.1 as well. I think I'd rather use barbarian invasion, and figured this would be the easier thing to do (seeing as how I have no clue how to do it).
So should this work for 1.1? And if not, how could I make EB use BI instead?

Where do you live?
Even here in Malta, where we are separated from mainland Europe by the sea and usually pay much more for an average service, I get very good speeds with torrents.
I achieve 400kb/s or almost regularly on my 4Mbit line. Most of the time speeds cluster around 300kb/s. This torrent file (EB1.1) I got at around 140kb/s, which is relatively low. Try uploading more when you're downloading. If you limit uploads it won't allow you to download at a good speed.

Barring that, you are probably limited/walled thru the ISP, if you yourself haven't firewalled your PC.
Try using the muTorrent client software. I use that and it's very good. Also check the ports and see whether they are open or not.

1) You are behind a router and your port forwarding is not properly set up.
2) Your ISP actively blocks Torrent & similar traffic.
3) Something else is wrong with your connection (try reviewing status and/or reconnecting)
4) Your ISP actively caps Torrent & similar traffic some excruciatingly low up/download rate.
EDIT: 5) Your Firewall actively blocks your client software. This is common with built in Windows Firewalls; usually a message box should appear asking you whether or not you wish to keep blocking the software or unblock it whenever you run the blocked software. Selecting unblock might just fix it?
I live in the Netherlands where this kind of traffic blocking is relatively uncommon (only Chello does this, AFAIK), but I guess in the USA where some laws are considerably more restrictive/forcefully enforced this is different...
But the problem lies definitely in the fact that you're not connected to anyone: so your client software can't download jack at all.
No.
Even using all the tricks to get more speed out of torrents, my download speed has never gotten anywhere near 50kb/s, much less the levels in your baseless claim about the supposed superiority of torrents.
It says 23 hours now.
It's nothing new. I'm paying for a 5mb/s cable connection and in the afternoon and evening it's usually slower than my old 56k was.
Look at your settings than myabe they are screwed up
like how many connections does it allow what is your maximum DL speed in the program etc....
Ps and i think there is a share policy (how more your share the higher your upload)

Well my previous ISP used to cap downloads thru torrents, so it probably is really that. I wouldn't get anything higher than 20kb/s most of the time, so when I switched to my current ISP and found that speeds had more than multiplied by a factor of 10 and I was actually paying less I was ecstatic.

One quick question on the install.
Should EB Trivial Script be installed in the file w/ the EB download and RTW base, because its promting me to put it in a seperate Programfiles/EBTrivialScript ?
Interesting sidenote: if we had waited four more days the release of 1.1 would have been exactly on the sixth month anniversary of the release of 1.0.
Just four more days of taunting. Sheesh, is that too much to ask after all those painful hours of dreadful beta-testing *sob*
Which two of them do you want answered :clown:?
1. No. No. No. NO. NO. Still no. Stop asking already.
2. No, but it's close. There will probably be no more units in EB1.
3. Install a bittorrent client. Google it.
4. It might be. You might be.

I'm using uTorrent, have some seeders, yet I still have hours to go.
It has not gotten higher than 131 kb/s (really, how are you getting more than 600?), and nothing I do makes it go faster.
And when it is downloading, I'm basically unable to do anything else, as it kills the performance unless I pause it. Does anyone have any advise at all? Or should I wait for the much faster filefront option?

Six hours on my bittorrent download. :no:
Maybe I'll wait until there is a real download option.
JUST six hours? Mine says three days.
Luckily, as I said in an earlier post, i'm in no hurry. If it downloaded in three minutes, I couldn't play anyway. :wall:
(I swear, giving up games for lent seemed like a good idea at the time. I wasn't expecting 1.1 until May, at earliest)

We're both from Wisconsin so it probably is the same problem.
Any chance you guys will set up a file front download? If you're planning on it, I'll be content just to wait it out with 1.0 until you set it up. It's just much easier for me.
By the way, great job with all your hard work! It really has paid off and made RTW a much more enjoyable game- EB is so different from vanilla, though, it's hard not to call it a completely new game!

Tellos Athenaios
04-08-2008, 02:45
Yes, there is definitely a good chance we will; I reckon. We simply released it through the torrent & ed2k before we'd release it as simple FTP download for the reasons of preserving bandwith - as well as getting a nice, seeding, swarm which should make downloading go much faster...
the only isp that actively limits torrent in the usa that I know of is comcast in the southern states. dunno if there are companies that does the same in the north-central ones.

I'm pretty sure you just need to uninstall EB, then go into the RTW directory and delete the "EB" folder that's in there, then just reinstall EB.

Damn you! Big assignment to do tomorrow.
There will be mirrors, but ED2K and Torrent require very little work to set up and are available instantly, so get up earlier. Consider it a head start for those who use sharing technology. I see that several people get 100-300 kB/second already on the torrent.
Just a quick question; will we still need to apply the bug fix patches that were needed for 1.0, or have these been included into 1.1? I didn't see them in the list of bug fixes.. or did I ?
Oh and thank you for 1.1 EB TEAM!!!! :yes: :yes: :yes:
NOTE THAT THESE FIXES ARE FOR 1.0, NOT 1.1!

If you copy over the music files themselves and the descr_sounds_music.txt it *should* work with 1.0 savegames, but I have not done it so I can't be absolutely certain. I'd save the old files under a different name or folder just to be certain you could go back to them if there was a problem.

Then it's time to try another browser. Or possibly your ISP is overzealous and filters away torrents and ED2K links. My current employer blocks all mp3 content, for instance.

Double click the icon, then bring up the task manager and check to make sure EB1.1.exe and EB1.1.tmp are running, if so just go make a cup of tea and be patient :)
@ The people bitching and whining about using peer to peer, if it's such a problem why don't YOU pay to host a HTTP or FTP download? No? Didn't think so...
They've given you a free game, stop moaning about how you get it and go google a torrent FAQ (all those moaning about rubbish speeds etc, you have poor configurations, I was able to reach a stable 200kbs within about thirty minutes of starting the download).

Ok I've been meaning to ask this since 1.1 was released.
Is it worth it for me to install it and stop my 1.0 campaign at 220 BC as Romani? I'd love to try out the new features but I'd like to know if the differences (esp. Roman) are worth the hassle.

No, it's not worth it. You'll have wasted all that time you spent getting the Romans to 220 BC. That's over 200 turns!
Finish your 1.0 campaign first, and then upgrade to 1.1 after that. And when you do, play some other faction, not the Romans.

Space is not a problem.
But I think Scato is right. When (and if) I finish this campaign I will freshly install the new version. Or EB2 if it's released by then :P
Edit: Oh! 100th post!

Is it possible to make a patch which can be added to EB 1.0 to make it into EB1.1 because i don't want to wait ages for the full EB1.1 v download.
General Aetius

No. If it were possible, they would have done it. Too many changes for a patch.
If you can't download it from Torrent or e-Mule, or the new .Org link, wait for a week or two and it will be on FileFront by then.
Until then, just finish off your 1.0 campaign.

Woohoo!
It's now possible to recruit Sardinian archer-spearmen-skirmisher-type dudes! Sardinia doesn't feel empty anymore!
Thank you EB team!

Bug fixes
* Fixed unit name error causing a CTD on turn 400.
I noticed this little tid-bit which has me a bit concerned. Does this mean my v1.0 AS game which is nearing turn 400 is doomed to crash?
I think that's among the released fixes for 1.0.

Sounds good. Very, very good. And I mean, very good.
However I'll have to wait until a direct download link becomes available. I'll suffer, but survive. 1.1's gonna be worth it. :yes:
Downloading now! Thanks! :2thumbsup:
And I was just planning to come back to EB after some time...

It was also on the website, but for some reason the link didn't work earlier and I thus assumed that it simply meant more waiting for me.
Well, as it happens, tried it now, and the link worked, and so I can start downloading once I get back home from work tomorrow. *Loves it* :yes:

Well it took me three attempts, but I finally got it downloaded successfully. I tried twice without using a bitorrent program, but it would only partially download and suddenly stop. The bitorrent was about five times faster downloading as well. One question, did 1.1 make any changes with formations? Does anyone think adding the DarthMod formations for EB would be worth it?

Or, you know, the announcement.
Thank you for making the best total war mod in existence...
Three cheers for EB and the EB team!

Just wondering if the Factions-section on the homepage will be updated with the new units from EB1.1.
It would be interesting to see what new units the factions will recieve, and which are Eleutheroi/local units.
Will this happen soon, or will I just have to find out by playing?

Greetings people,
I just downloaded it from the Org, it's 219.3 MB, is this correct, as I remember V1.0 as being larger?
Once again thank you for the update of this lovely mod! :) Here's another stupid question from me.. how do i get the new Saka intro movie to work? I did download the Codec that was suggested here somewhere but I still don't get any movies at all. Could it be because i'm running it with BI? In that case i'll just stop worrying about it. I mostly just ask in case there's some easy solution. :D
Btw, I finally survived the first 10 years of a Saka campaign! I started with them because I wanted to see the intro. It's great fun, and very strange.. this migration stuff is like a whole new game!

it's placed in here so you can still have a look (without starting the game)
And you have most likely in your shortcut target line this code at the end "-nm" this means no movies will be played you can delete that if you want

Aaah yes, I added that -nm bit to the BI shortcut as part of the instructions. I even knew it removes the movies, I had just forgotten it was there! Thanks a billion Sassem! *bows*

The size should be 786MB.
is it harder or easier than 1.0?? when i was playing my vh/vh campain in 0.81 it was very hard but when i was playing 1.0 on VH/M it was easy. Im thinking about WH/H but i cant make a decision.
Tellos Athenaios
04-10-2008, 18:50
Some factions harder, some perhaps easier. But in any case the difference between VH battle and M battle is in EB a lot more apparent than it apparently used to be in Vanilla. So that might've made all the difference back then?
and how is it with mercenaries?? i didnt like that AI had in army mailny mercenaries or units from local barracks and they had only few elite soldiers.
Tellos Athenaios
04-10-2008, 20:25
I dunno. That's the sort of problem you only face against well established, big and rich empires. However check the changelog of the annoucement to see what difference EB 1.1 to mercenaries makes.
Haven't seen the beta testers complaining about merc full stacks or sth., though.
Watchman
04-10-2008, 20:32
Last I heard the merc replenishement rates were set so low that while you might indeed occasionally run into an all-merc stack (ie. the AI's "bought out" the contents of a pool or two) it's going to take a fair while before they're again available in any numbers...

The link to mizus.com download leads to a page that says "Forbidden 404," and that I don't have permission to enter. It didn't 18 hours ago! (my download was interrupted)

Just wanted to say HUGE thank you to the EB team! :balloon2: :balloon2: :2thumbsup: :balloon2: :balloon2:
Only downside to 1.1 being released is that the novel I'm writing about Antiochus the Great is going to take even longer for me to finish since i'm going to play EB even more now :sweatdrop:

Yeah, I'm having the same problem with the direct download. Hope it's something that's not too difficult to fix. Good luck!
And -- a HUGE THANKS for your continued efforts...an incredible example of "mass collaboration" in action! :2thumbsup: :2thumbsup:

What does that mean:
* Don't place Roman barracks in Ariminum when player is Romani.
So, as a Roman player, shouldn'y I build Roman barracks there? Why?
