:help:I uninstalled everything to do with RTW, then freshly reinstalled RTW/BI. (installed them to the c:\ drive)
I then downloaded EB1.1exe and EB12exe and installed both to c:\BI
After they installed i wasnt given an EB icon on the desktop, so i tried clicking on the 'play EB single player' icon in the start menu, i was given this error message:
EB Trivial script error …..Execution of command ‘romeTW.exe-mob:eb-show_error ‘failed (error2 cannot find the file specified):furious3:

Im getting this message every time i try to access EB single player, multi player, etc. Also when i try clicking on the plain BI icon i now get 'error loading mount database', so ive obviously ballsed that up aswell!

Am i being a bit dense here?!? should i be taking each individual file and drag dropping them into the RTW folders?!

Ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times now....im tempted to give up! Can anyone help?!?!?!?:dizzy2:

Welcome to the forum!

Be sure to not miss the EB-FAQ (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=84854)!!!

Please try this at first:

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.
