EB Online

Check your Rome total war folder. There should be an EB Icon called configuration in there. Use that to run MP.

This is the Rome Total War folder:


In Extras folder there is EBTrivialScript_setup.exe, I installed it but doesn't work. When I run the C:\Program Files (x86)\EBTrivialScript\EBTrivialScript.exe this appears:


There is ebconfig.dat, how I run it correctly? Which program should I use to open it?

One thing you can try and do is try to reinstall EB over the current installation. I recommend installing trivial script during this initial installation. I know the Extras folder is there in case you didn't do so and change your mind later. But perhaps something is not linking correctly and is causing the EBTS not to 'connect' to EB, as it were.

I did this before. Nothing changed. If you insist, I can do it once more. Yesterday I insalled Windows 8 (64bit). What is the manual way to switch MP mode?

I'm not sure about your current situation because you have EB installed over Alexander. All of us in the online community installed on Vanilla R:TW. I think the Alexander mod wasn't really an official EB released, just tweaked by a fan to fit the Alex.exe and therefore may have a bunch of changes I'm unfamiliar with.

I don't use Alexander exe or Barbarian exe. RTW is 1.5.

You have been struck by the Windows 8 Anti-RTW virus. It aims people who wish to play RTW on Windows 8 and tells the software: DO NOT ALLOW MODS TO WORK IN MULTIPLAYER MODE. We're working on solving this now.

Okay, I'm just kidding. But can you please tell me exactly how your EB and RTW are set up? And I mean everything.

For example, here's how mine is set up:

I installed RTW 1.5. Then EB 1.1. EB 1.2. Then EB 1.2 fixes. EB MP Load Replay Mod. Then EBO MP EDU 3.4. I ran Trivial Script, saved and exited in Multiplayer mode to switch the EDU to MP. Now I can run EB and play with people on Hamachi.
