EB crash at startup.

I get the same problem, tell me if fresh install helps.

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

...

Well i reinstalled the 1.2 patch and then reinstalled EB and now i have a new error message.

Script Error in data/descr_sm_settlements.txt, at line 304, column 1.

Expected culture type, found nomad.

I went into the descr_sm_settlements.txt and chaged the word 'nomad' to 'eastern' and it runs fine now.

Lemme find the link I used...

EDIT: Here it is:

Get a fresh install of 1.0 and replace the files with these.

The link leads me to mizus.com and nothing more. I can't find the download on the site.

Be aware that you're running on a bad install, and errors may occur eventually. You didn't remove all traces of 1.3/4/5/6 before installing.

**RandyKapp** · 12-28-2005, 23:03

I dont have 1.3/4/5/6

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...
