    Default EB crash at startup.

    The problem is simply this... I install Europa Barbarorum, have the icon on my desktop, I click it, It goes to the europa barbarorum screen (very well made by the way, this mod is aw ork of art) then a window posts up saying "file doesnt existÉÓ" or something, and then closes.

    Im currently going to do a fresh installation of rome total war, then install the 1.2 patch to see if this problem persists.

    If it does persist, I'm going to need help

    Help me obiwan kenobarbarorum , youre my only hope =(

    There have been some CTDs on startup that have been caused by a bad install, a fresh install should help.

    Also, please test your vanilla 1.2 installation by loading it and playing a campaign and battle, prior to installing EB. Many of these errors at startup have not been EB related and so you should see them before even installing EB.

    This will also help us determine if there is an actual bug at startup with EB, which we have not seen internally.

    I had a hell of a time trying to install EB...it kept CTDing at the first start screen...

    I realized that a file in the 1.2 version was corrupted (BARB.something kept showing up saying it couldn't be copied when I was preparing for the Beta last night)

    Then I unistalled, and had the problem of not being able to install 1.2 as it was already installed...

    Finally, I got a zip file of 1.2 and that worked, but now I have messed up my entire 1.5/1.6 BI install ...

    This happened to me to.

    I installed RTW and then patched it up to 1.2, installed EB correctly and then your startscreen of a map comes up for a second before this window comes up saying that some code is wrong. Weird...

    Ok, problem fixed, sorry to have wasted everyones time.

    Just uninstall rome total war, and reisntall it then install the patch then install Europa barbarorum.

    Sorry I didn't reply sooner, I got carried away playing battle editor on Europa Barbarorum... understandably.

    On the contrary you dont need to uninstalle then reinstalled (the time consuming nussance that it is) you simply need to reapply the patch then reinstall eb!

    Can I just take my Vanilla 1.3 and reapply the 1.2 patch?

    Apparently it worked. I can now play EB. Can't play vanilla, but I can play EB. It's pretty sweet so far.
