Hi FF,

You need to check the shortcut on your desktop has that text after the rtw.exe mentioned in the other thread to make it read the EB folder. -mod:EB it is telling the exe to look first in the EB folder for files and only to use the standard files if it cant find them in the EB folder... without it the exe will automatically use the vanilla data folder for all its data and you wont be playing EB !!

cheers,

Pobs

The discussion of illegal .exe's will not be discussed on these forums.

perhaps you control your eb-installationfolder.

inside the rometotalwar folder

i remember a similar problem years ago, when i installed my first romemods...

My thought exactly

I hope someone will lock/delete this thread. Please use the PM system if need be.
