Thread: Additional Text Everywhere

    Default Additional Text Everywhere

    Hey, all

    It's been a long time since I posted anything EB-related. I've been a fan for years, mostly over at the TWC, but since I can't remember my password there and the email account it was attached to is gone I decided to post here instead. I've been getting text that obviously belongs in the game's text files almost everywhere in the interface. I'm running the game on a Windows 8 PC using the disc addition and the CAI update but no improved graphics update. I have a screenshot, but I'm not sure where to upload it in order to attach it here. Any help would be well-appreciated.

    Thanks

    Could you try to extract this into your mods/EBII/data/text folder?

    I extracted the files into the text folder, and it seemed to fix the problem. However, I now have a new issue, and it may be related: only some factions seem to function when I load them, some of which loaded (with the text errors) previously. Thusfar Rome and Epirus startup without problems or the extra text, but Carthage, Macedonia, and the KH all begin to load but when the bar is completed on the loading screen I get a popup saying the game has crashed due to an unspecified error.

    Thanks for testing this! Then I probably missed some of the text bits, causing it to crash. I'll try with Carthage and see what comes up in the log, if anything.

    This seems to work better when starting a Carthage campaign, please try again :).

    I got a report on TWC that it crashes when viewing an enemy settlement. This new version should fix that.

    I'm getting a consistent CTD when I attempt any attacks on enemy settlements, so maybe you fix will also correct that problem. I'll try it out tomorrow after work. Thanks!
