hello people, im really sorry for this thread i was trying to find a similar thread on the forums but i wasnt lucky so if i have rtw gold edition can i play eb on it?its because my old cd stoped working and i was only able to get the gold edition, can someone explain what i need to do if its possible to install eb on it please?
thanks and once again im really sorry
Yeah, you can play EB on gold. Make sure you're patched to 1.5 (which I don't think gold is). Also, by default gold installs in the directory "The Creative Assembly/Rome - Total War" and I believe EB defaults to "Activision/Rome - Total War", so if you didn't change the install path, you need to make sure EB installs in the proper place.
Gold is patched to 1.5/1.6. You can play EB with RTW Gold without needing to download any of the patches for RTW.

I have Gold edition too, it works fine, it's just the different path like mentioned.
as am i - i installed Gold, then directed the EB installer to install to the RTW installation directory, despite it warning me not to for some reason...
i use the RTW.exe by the way... an occasional CTD but nothing major...
