    Default 'ERROR: Cannot find the M2TW executable.'

    It claims that I haven't installed EBII in a "folder containing a M2TW" installation. I put it in C:/Program Files (x86)/Medieval II Total War/mods. Is this the wrong area? I've tried every way to play it, but it gives me some variation of this message.

    Greetings,

    The correct folder is C:/Program Files (x86)/Medieval II Total War (not mods).

    After that run it using the Kingdoms disc.

    OK, I reinstalled it properly. It gave me a popup saying 'shared.txt:{gerr_generic}' and refused to open.

    Here.

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    I do NOT answer PM requests for help with EB. Ask in a new help thread in the tech help forum.

    Then I'm afraid we're out of solutions, until we can release a new version where this string thing is fixed.
