Can't load EB

Well I downloaded EB1 via filefront on saturday, but when I installed it on a fresh copy of RTW the game had a ctd before even loading the main screen. After reading about corrupt EB installations, I downloaded it again via torrent, and installed a fresh copy of RTW 1.5. But the problems are still there. I installed all known fixes, minus that of the oppida, put -nm at the end of the shortcut, and run the validation patch. I have these files missing;

.\data\descr_arrow_trial_effect_final
.\data\descr_surface_fire.txt
.\data\txt\caesar_in_gaul_wip_5_regions_and_settlement_names_txt

The game is loading, then the vanilla intro movie appears, but when the EB loading screen appears, the bar only fills have way, than, CTD.

Cheers

Re: Can't load EB

I installed the Oppida fix too, plus after seeing some treads decided to add -ne too. The problem was not solved. Please bovi help me, I am getting mad.

Cheers.

Re: Can't load EB

I could give you those missing vanilla files, but I'm not at home yet.

You've done quite a few of the known ways to fix it. I thought you were an EB veteran, and had 1.0 since a long time ago? Did you get a new computer or install some new hardware or driver since you last played? Have you installed Nero or any other new software?

You've done quite a few of the known ways to fix it. I thought you were an EB veteran, and had 1.0 since a long time ago? Did you get a new computer or install some new hardware or driver since you last played? Have you installed Nero or any other new software?

I decided to quite my Romani campaign on .82 to give version 1 a try, but in the first place I had to load the EB menu screen. And Yes I am an EB veteran, it was difficult to quite my Romani on .82.

Yes recently I installed Nero and Power ISO, do they have something to do with all this mess?.

Cheers and thanks for your help.

Re: Can't load EB

I installed the fixes you gave me in RTW data folder not in the EB data folder. Its that correct.

Now since my last post I tried to insalled Eb again, the validation has listed more missing files.
\data\descr_arrow_trail_effects_final.txt
\data\descr_surface_fire.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\descr_walls.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\export_descr_buildings.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\export_descr_character_traits.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\export_descr_unit.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\packs\mod_0.pak
Changed file: .\eb\data\scripts\show_me\ebbs_script.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\text\export_vnvs.txt
Changed file: .\eb\data\world\maps\base\descr_disasters.txt
Added file: .\data\caesar_in_gaul_wip_5_regions_and_settlement_names. txt.

Cheers.

Re: Can't load EB

Uninstall Nero, and it should work again.

Those changed files are the permanent fixes, or a submod, I presume? If not, extract them from the installer with 7-zip.

You placed the caesar in gaul file wrong.

Re: Can't load EB

Bovi, I did exactly as you told me. I removed Nero and Power ISO to be sure, than removed Copy of Activision. Then the process to copy RTW, I used 7-zip to extract Eb and installed it plus all patches. I restarted my PC, and clicked on the EB icon, but the vanilla movie is still there, what is important is that I loaded EB with your great help and patience.:2thumbsup: Thanks very much Bovi.:cheerleader:

One question, what could possibly Nero do to the EB installer, and if I install Nero again do you thing there will be any problems with EB.

Cheers.

Re: Can't load EB

I have no idea why Nero screws up EB, but it does :shrug:. There could be other programs that are screwing it up on other people's installations, however they generally don't give a full listing of installed programs either (and I'm not asking). It was a lucky shot that someone remembered having installed Nero and not getting it to work afterwards.
