I would think that you would want to create a program that is compatable with others. RTR,xgm,chivalry...ec can all be played from the same Rome Total War files. There are lots of players like me who don't see the need in using up 20gb to install a few games, that maybe the Eb team might be able to reference this bug.When there are other alternatives. My disk space is valuable to me. Given enough time I'll figure out what the problem is myself. The best part about modding is that your in constant learning about things that you don't know and teaching others what you do,This includes referencing and trying new things and stretching your boundaries and knowledge. There are alot of great programs here on this site that were created by people who wanted to do more......so here it is, if you havn't anything intelligent to say then don't say anything.

There is no need to be rude.

EB overwrites only a small number of files; the loading bar and the vanilla cities. It will not mess with the sound database, and all other files placed in the vanilla folder have the EB_ tag before them so they do not overwrite the original files. We do recommend installing it over a clean install of RTW 1.5 as we deal with EB bugs, not bugs caused by the many and varied ways people can set their EB up (ie with one or more mods over the same RTW). So we recommend a clean install of RTW 1.5 because we cannot spend our time solving the problems of people with varied setups - we have a mod to make you know!

Finally, bovi is one the most intelligent people in the modding community for finding bugs and solving them. I should think that before making blanket statements about someone, you should know who they are first.

Our advice has always been to install over a clean RTW 1.5 and we have never supported having other mods on that same RTW, because we cannot control where they place there files and they may well turn up a conflict. The -mod build allows a player to still use the vanilla folder, but it is up to the discression of the individual whether they use other mods on the same RTW, and not the responsibility of the modding team to solve any problems resulting from doing so.
