Graphic bugs on battles

**xzGAB** · 11-12-2008, 15:11

I played 1.0 and i was having problems with the battles, so i downloaded 1.1 version and it is worse. I tried to fight 2 times (playing Romani against Epeiros) and 2 times i couldn't. I deleted the wrong file map.rmw (it was the vanila file) so i am thinking if this is de root of the problem. What do I do?

Thanks

Your graphics card?

The vanilla map.rwm file is irrelevant. Get the fixes, and experiment with various drivers for your display adapter.

AMD Athlon 3500+ 2.46Ghz
GeForce 8400 GS
2G RAM

I am taking the fixes now, but do you think my pc is too slow to run the game?

**bovi** · 11-13-2008, 13:08

No, it should be able to run the game. It may not run it smoothly, but you have enough RAM, so you should be clear of the worst lag.

Anyway, what graphics bug are you talking about? Your inquiry says very little about what's wrong, so I have given very general advice.

I installed all permanent fixes and nothing changed. I conquered a city in a non bug battle, but the second battle was bugged. I don't know what to do.

When i the battle starts, everthing disappears and i only see the sky

Its very likely you installed the fixes in the wrong place then. That sounds exactly like a sprite bug, which is what one of the permanent fixes fix.

This looks completely weird... I've heard about skies in "holes" in the ground, but not an entire battlefield. Could you please run a validation?

Yes, i had these holes in 1.0 EB, but now it's worst, almost all battles i can't play due the bug.

Could you please run a validation?

I didn't understand, what would be it? it would be to give my savegame? (sorry, i am not american, english is not my mother language). If "yes", here is my save

I am sure i installed them in the correct place, but i will do it again.

Thanks

Run the validateInstall.bat file in your RTW folder. It will compare all your RTW and EB files with a functional installation. Post the results here. You can also see the validation post referred from the "important information" sticky.

Do I have all these files missing?? OMG!!! I will never play EB...

That's my ebValidateResults...

The validation says:
* You're running in an RTW folder with BI installed.
* You are not using the original RomeTW.exe. Restore that and run with the CD in the drive.
* You're not running the English version of RTW. Which language of RTW are you running with? I'm pretty sure the French version is problematic with EB, possibly some others too. You've also taken backups of... pretty much all the language relevant files for RTW. Why? Did you change language at some point? You should try to run EB in a clean RTW installation, preferably with English language if you have that available.

Is it wrong?? I just played EB after 3 tries. At the first and second i installed at other folder and couldn't play.

I had to format my pc and when i installed the cd was bronken. I had to download to play again and i think it was chinese. I think it is RIP because it doesn't need patch, it installs at 1.5 version. After this I downloaded a file to convert to my original language (portuguese) and the EB 1.0 instalation.
I had problems with 1.0 version and deleted all. Reinstalled RTW chinese and downloaded EB 1.1.

Is there an way to play EB with my weird chinese version or i have to buy other RTW?

Thanks
