    Default Re: EB 1.2 released

    Welcome to EB!

    Read the Eb-FAQ

    You also should take a look into the frequent issues, your problem is described there.

    My EB shortcut doesn't work!
    Sorry about that. A product of lacking experience with creating installers, I made a mistake when creating the shortcuts that start EB 1.2.

    Use the Trivial Script to start EB instead of the start menu shortcut. You need to have installed this as part of EB 1.1.

    Modify the shortcut target. Move the end quote from the end of the line to directly after RomeTW.exe and it should work (goes for both the new shortcuts in 1.2). For instance, instead of "C:\My games\RomeEB\RomeTW.exe -mod:eb -show_err -ne" it should be "C:\My games\RomeEB\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb -show_err -ne.

    Well, I just tried to open the Shortcut (the icon with the black arrow called "Verknüpfung" in German, I suggest^^) but I also ended up "playing" the original Rome: Total War.

    @XSamatan
    To the "My EB shortcut doesn't work"-Quote: I don't understand the part with the "-mod:eb -show_err -ne."-thing, what's this about. I also have the feeling that there are some things missing in my folder cuz when I watch e.g. THIS video it shows e.g. an "EB Configuration" button that I can't find (watch from 3:00 on). Hope you can help me :-)

    Du kannst während der Installation wählen ob du optionale Komponenten installierst (darunter das sog. Trivial Script, dass die genannten Verknüpfungen erstellen würde), das ist also kein Fehler.

    Öffne die Eigenschaften der EB-Verknüfung und bearbeite die Ziel-Zeile indem du das Anführungszeichen (") verschiebst, von "C:\My games\RomeEB\RomeTW.exe -mod:eb -show_err -ne" nach "C:\My games\RomeEB\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb -show_err -ne

    Dann läuft das ganze.
    Und lese die FAQ!!
