    well every time I try installing EB at the same time I have BI installed, it instantly CTDs before the main loading screen comes up. So something's wrong with one of the two, and idc which lol. So I'll test the main, clean RTW.exe I just installed last night (with a nice bit of panicking because my disc wouldn't work) and see what happens.

    EDIT: Seems stable so far. I had a bit of a rage attack when I tried playing out a battle as the Casse and the game froze. But the Makedones are a good substitute :D

    Sounds like a great pack mate! Great job! I've been looking for something like this, to simplify the setup. I'll give it a try right now

    Got a crash in 251 BC on Lustonnan's turn. Lots of units including all horses don't properly work unless the graphics are set to "low". I'm not sure if this is caused by the mod but any tips?

    Edit:Used FD to take every single Luso city, it ceased crashing on their turn but then it crashed on the Eleutheroi's turn.

    Hmm, I like that the pack puts all the mods together, but after playing for almost 2 weeks, I am very dissapointed by the number of CTDs after battles. Basically every second battle will have a CTD which is far more often than the vanilla EB, based on my previous experience. There are quite a few CTDs before starting battles or when loading, but not as many. I am using Alex and playing with Romani in VH/H. Any suggestions?!

    No, I think you might have a corrupted EB install because it works fine on mine and it doesn't alter neither horse models or their skins.

    It's not my fault, most likely an Eleutheroi city is revolting and it causes the CTDs... It happens sometimes with EB, there is a link on bovi (bovi? I think it's bovi's) signature on how to resolve it.

    Yes, it is a problem with mods, you can either have some possible solutions:
    Run EB alone without any background program, play it windowed, play with the campaign map zoomed out, set core afinity to any other core (task manager, proceses, right click, set affinity, unmark your first CPU)
    Also, buy more memory. I have the same problem too but I have to swallow it sadly.

    It turned out the Eleutheroi's turn crash was caused by "Nautius" constantly responding in around Eburonum because there were two Casse armies just standing around in the area without attacking or going away, so I had to bribe them,conquer the settlement, kill Nautius 2 and 3, and give the settlement to Aedui. Then about 5 turns later it crashed on Sweboz's turn and I gave up and made a new campaign.

    I don't think the horse or Pezhetaroi skins are because of a bad install because on low and medium horses appear and at low the pezhetaroi appear. I'm guessing it has something to do with shadows or anti-aliasing, so I'll have to look at that. Oddly it works perfectly on Medieval Total war, not sure about Vanilla RTW.

    Anyway, I only posted here because while I was pretty sure it was an EB thing(the crash was confirmed to be that) I thought I should post here because my version was modded with yours and the bug report people wouldn't take it.

    Edit:Now I'm having a very odd bug that's only happened in recent turns. If I hover the CURSOR over the Alexandria-Margiane and Baktra border the game randomly crashes. Could this be related to the lack of borders?
    Edit:2 This doesn't seem to happen anymore...odd.

    Qn Jirisy,

    I think everything is working (since I get the increased movement and new splash screen ( :) ) but when do the new ancilliaries appear (eg for KH?).

    Thanks

    Vermin.

    Jirisys, your tip about running it in Window mode has reduced the CTDs AFTER the battles by 5x at least, I would say! It did not solve much of the CTDs BEFORE battles. But it makes the game run slower. I have 4 GB of RAM. Do I really need more? Now the affinity part, can you explain that? What is that setting really doing? Should I change it only for the EB/Rome process?

    Thanks!

    Well, then your video card is not that good. I have the same 4GB and cruddy gpu. Well. Go to task manager, processes, right click on Alex.exe or RTW.exe (whichever you use), then go to the "Set Affinity" option, and uncheck Core0 if you have 2 cores.

    Only the EB/Rome process. It helps to reduce memory leaks, but it will run slower.
