nothing happening when starting up

[Maximus Aurelius]

I have this exact same problem, actually, and I would be interested in seeing if anyone has a solution. I get to the loading bar of the main menu, then the game seemingly stops loading. I've checked the validation file to see if I was missing something; it did give me a list of items that were, I guess, changed, but nothing that I could see that would cause this bug. I also tried playing RTW 1.5 before installing EB just to make sure the vanilla installation worked, and everything was fine.

If you get to the loading bar and it stops, maybe you didn't install it correctly. Or you didn't give it enough time. Try again, and if it still doesn't work maybe somebody else can help you.

I'll try it again when I get home. I've installed the mod twice, now, actually. The first time it wasn't over a clean install of RTW 1.5 (some old RTR files were still in the folder). It didn't work, but the loading bar would get about halfway before freezing.

This time I installed it over a totally clean install of 1.5, following all the instructions to the letter. It gets to the loading screen but doesn't appear to be loading at all, unlike the first installation which did... to a point.
