Description:

Double Click EB.exe,
EB loading screen appears, loads for 30-60 secs,
I hear a 'ping' noise,
message pops up after about 15 secs "failed to open sound database",
I hit ok,
a new box pops up "script error in data/sounds/descr_sounds_units_ambient.txt at line 6099 column 18, mount type 'camel cataphract' not found"
I hit ok,
back to desktop.

Not a clue what's going on here, any help much appreciated.

It's not an EB script though - that's RTW. It has to be a bad install either of the game or of the mod download files. That's the first time in a few thousand downloads that I've read that problem.

I've gotten it from messing with events.dat before (trying to customize music)

Similar problem, except I now get the line


Script Error in data/descr_event_images.txt, at line 623, column 1.

Unknown event string faction_defeated_by_player
Should I just try reinstalling RTW?

Justicar, that problem happened to quite a few people with the original version of EB. I think you are the first person to state it for .73 though. It is just a bad install or download of EB I believe. So you'll have to reinstall EB on another 1.2 version of RTW.
