Ah, that must be it. Thanks friend.

It's easy to accidentally save the text in the wrong format which the RTW parser refuses to read, with Notepad++. As long as you make sure the file's in "Windows format" and (AFAIK) "ANSI" encoding it works just fine.

Thanks watchman, I'll keep that in mind for next time, but for now I'm not touching my files again now that I have everything working finally. Was having EB withdrawls for a while there.

Lol stupac, I know how you feel.

Thank you everyone for helping each other while I was away.

Hi guys..
So I installed EB 1.1, then the mini-mod to make it work with Alex, then TWFanatics Phalanx Mod, then DS' Romani fix to "fix" the various Roman elite troops...Also, I am NOT using trivial script to load the game...I basically just created a shortcut to start RTW-Alx.exe....

NOW FOR THE FUNNY PART....

I am somehow able to both play custom battles with the new Romani units AND still play the Imperial Campaign (seemingly) without having to switch EDU's...

Is this possible? Am I headed for disaster? Its still early in the game and all seems well, should I expect trouble down the road?

Thanks for any insight...

You might be using the Campaign EDU. You can do this, but on custom battles you don't always get all your faction's homeland untis and you often get too many distant foreign auxilaries.

Or maybe you are using your Multiplayer/custom battle EDU. This would result in far less foreign auxilary units in your campaign, and thus you would not get the full EB experience. However, you don't really notice this till you get a certain distance away from your homeland.

Thanks.

How do I find out which EDU I'm using? Also, is there a way to use TrivialScript to address this issue and still have all the mini-mods working?

What do you mean by not the full EB experience?

Thanks for the reply.

alright, didn't want to ask for help until I've reinstalled EB 1.1 and the phalanx mod...

However it still doesn't work for me... I know what it is supposed to look like as I had tried the EBv1 version of the mod... but when I extract the files into the EB folder, it doesn't work...

after reading the entire thread I've come across something to do with the TrivialScript?

I don't know what i should do to make the phalanx mod work... any suggestions?
