I downloaded and installed EB today, but every time I try to open it I get the following message:

"Execution of command: 'RomeTW.exe -mod:eb show_error ' failed (error 2: The system cannot find the file specified)

I am playing on a slightly altered version (upgraded a couple of units ie Triarii fight in phalanx formation) of the Rome Total War Anthology. Does anyone know how to fix the problem?

Modify the shortcut target. Move the end quote from the end of the line to directly after RomeTW.exe and it should work (goes for both the new shortcuts in 1.2). For instance, instead of "C:\My games\RomeEB\RomeTW.exe -mod:eb -show_err -ne" it should be "C:\My games\RomeEB\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb -show_err -ne.

Did you make these mentioned changes in EB, or are they only present in vanilla RTW?

If you mean the units, then only in Vanilla RTW (Made before the installation).

I'll try and modify the shortcut target tomorrow and see if that brings any joy.
