Try playing the mod with the original shortcut properties. Does this error still occur? If so, you have probably run into some problem or other during installation.

Pretty cool you can run EB using the BI.exe, gonna have to try it out.

What does that mean anyway when you run the game using BI.exe? Does it just utilize the 1.6 AI? Does it use any other files etc in the BI folder?

I just want to make sure that if I play EB using this method, I get the full EB experience....well, and little better AI :)

Search forum is your friend Makr

But the short answer is yes you get a slightly better AI...specially because it uses ships in a better/more agressive way and yes, you get the "full EB experience" also.

For some reason my regular rome hasn't worked for a long time,and then every time I use the original shortcut properties it does the same as the regular game,just cuts off at the loading screen

any findings with the custom battle problem cheexsta? Only reason I'm really interested is to see the sheild wall option for spartans, if they have any, would emulate a phalange perfectly.

Are there naval invasions in the standard rtw 1.5 +eb or only fewer than with BI.exe ? And is it possible to install BI later than EB ? Or do I have to go through the complete de-install/install thing again ?

Ps. Is the AI much better ? ( normally I win 99 % of all the battles at medium dificulty )
