Well the trivial allows you to play custom battles...

If you don't want to use the trivial just
1-copy the edu in the SP Edu backup folder (located in the EB folder)
2- and paste it in the EB data folder

Well, I just do not trust things that are supposed to be more "user-friendly" than my own intelligence is...
I use MP mode or custom battle very rarely, in fact only to see whether the changes I made are running well...

so i tried again....with a clean install
instead of running your pack i had it install to an empty folder and then copy pasted the stuff where it should have gone

I always run my game with BI by the way and i think the trival scripts don't work with BI because they are not configured with BI?

IS THERE ANY WAY I CAN RUN THE GAME WITH OUT TRIVAL SCRIPTS? or make it so it works with BI?

my games ran without trival scripts before, why so important now?

Can someone please give me a clear answer in what im doing wrong or what i need to do, to get my game to work with bi with the mod pack. Please

ps my trival scripts run fine, they just don't reconize my BI disc, and instead want an rtw one *so i think anyway*

omg.......

.... ...

i tried loading it for the 4th time with bi without the fabled trival script and it finally didn't ctd with the mod pack...

...

THANK YOU GOD I LOVE YOU ALL!!! lol.. sorry

anyway sorry for all that, i don't know what to say really, things are just working all of a sudden.
I have a couple questions though, since i did it that way instead of running the program and extracting via the installer did everything work right? Is it ok i copy and pasted? In game as the romans, i played tested to see if the new recruitment works and it does... does that mean everything is working? Im assuming so for the sake of my sanity :p

one last question i heard that the unit sizes were incorrect and there was a fix for 1.1
do i need to find that fix and apply it or is 1.2 considered fixed already?

humm well If you did erase everything and then reinstalled EB... I do suggest you to download the sprites fix, then copy&paste/use the installer to get the pack... after that... make the changes so you can use BI.exe MANUALLY

The important thing about the trivial script is...
EB uses 2 EDUs, one for SP and another for MP...

If you play SP with the MP EDU then you won't be able to recruit all the units you should (example you wouldn't be able to recruit spartans as the KH)

If you play MP with the SP EDU then you won't be able to select your factional troops, (like you wouldn't be able to selec principes or triarii as the SPQR)

Normally people would have to copy&paste the diferent EDUs manually... but since that was rather tiring, the trivial scrip was made, what it does is to swap the EDUs between SP and MP EDUs... (located in the SP EDU backup and MP EDU backup folders)...this is why the trivial script is imortant

In order to "change the target line" what I suggest is to change the trivial script... this is easier done than said.

Just open (right click>notepad, wordpad, whatever) the ebconfig.xml file located in your RTW folder and search for ".exe" without the hypens, then just add whatever you wanted to "add" to the target line.
