I've posted this in the general forum, but I'll take a shot here as well in case it's Alex related. I'm running the stock EB 1.2 with Alex and suddenly (around 232) I've lost the ability to recruit mercenary generals from my type IV settlements. Even if I capture new ones and build fresh type IVs. Has anyone else ever run into this problem and figured out a solution?
I've followed all the installation instruction, I only what the improved engine not the full mod. However I cant get past the loading screen as an error pops up saying unable to read the "chat_filter" file.
I'm pretty certain I've got the target line correct for the EB short cut. (see below)
I'm just wondering have I extracted the "EB12_on_ALX.exe!" file in to the wrong location? I've placed it in the EB file in the "C:\Program Files (x86)\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War" file.
I have a problem. The files on GameFront seem to be inaccessible. I keep getting errors. This may be due to problems on GameFront (I've had similar problems today with another file) or with these files specifically.
Indeed, the Alexander EB GameFront files are inaccessible for me as well. Can anyone re-upload these please, perhaps to another file hosting service? I would very much like to play EB on the Alexander engine.
Can I download Game Front files from any territory in the world?
A: Game Front file downloads are not supported in the following territories. If you’re not in one of the below territories and are still having issues with our servce, please submit a ticket and we’ll look into it.
Argentina
Mexico
Chile
Spain
Thailand
Poland
Colombia
Brazil
France
Venezuela
Italy
Peru
Uruguay
Malaysia
Turkey
Indonesia
India
Ecuador
Costa Rica
Honduras
Hungary
Philippines
Portugal
Romania
Russian Federation
Serbia
Singapore
Sweden
Japan
Indonesia
With that said, Game Front doesn't work for me either (403 Forbidden error), and I am in Belgium, which isn't listed.
I've tried the download using a German proxy to no avail (403 - Forbidden). Can no one re-post these files on this site or another file hosting service?
For those that can't download this mod, a solution would be to use this mod pack https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...ack-for-EB-1-2 . In certain ways it's better since it includes everything this mod has to offer and more :).
no it doesnt, none of the mods in the history of this game has as much content as mine, not near as much xD
also, i never had time to write on all the things i made active here, like the Amazon city of gold and silver and diamonds far up the North east, takes u years to get there but when you do... you will never be the same
hello. i must say that this mod is(was) great till i had to fight barbarian army and first CTD happened which told me that there is no german officers skin in data. then i remembered that i forgot to install fixes and i installed them both, but now i cant even load any new campain it CTD all time. what shell i do i re instaled everithing few timess, and it looks like before fixes it will let me start a new campain and play before i engage with sime babrarian army, but after fixes it just CTD whenever i just choos faction and hit start button, it just dont let me do anything :( help pls i realy havent seen better mod than this and i really want to play it.
rs2 enviroments and strat map textures,mtw2 trees for the strat map and ultimate weather 3 parts,
i edited script so campaings and AI is more alive, um, edited some cities as well :)
So the download links for this new mischief of yours? I was going to install the Alexander version but the 66 pages topic full of links seems kind of hectic at the moment..
This works great! I am playing on Hard Campaign and Very Hard Battle and have lost several battles already. A.I. hides in woods (at least when I started in a wooded area) and throw stones from their slingers at me and it took a while to find them. I am in year 267 but having a blast just playing Rome. Thank you Modders for
Europa Barbororum!!

There is a common bug when you try to install Alexander..
Most of us use default install location after which is always ''C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\..'' but if you use any other HDisk drive to install Alexander - you have a problem!
The installer always checks drive C for diskspace regardless of installationdrive. If you try to install ALEX and the installer quits with "error -1" (or something like that) you are propably a victim of this bug.
To play EB with ALEX.exe you have to copy 2 files from the ALEX-CD to your harddrive!
The easy one first:
Copy ''RomeTW-ALX.exe'' that can be found on the CD into your RTW installation folder, into the same directory where ''RomeTW.exe'' is and/or ''BI.exe'' (if you have one)
The second file is ''chat_filter.san''! This one is also on the CD, but it is packed in CAB files.
I will describe how to use i6comp to extract the CAB files, other tools can be found on the net - or google for it.
Unzip the download in some directory, say ''D:\extract''. This should give you, among others, the file ''i6comp.exe''.
From the ALEX CD copy the files ''data1.cab'', ''data1.hdr'' and ''data2.cab'' into the same directory.
Open a Text-editor and create a file ''i6comp.bat'' with the following line:
''i6comp e -r data1.cab''
Save the file in ''D:\extract''.
Doubleclick ''i6comp.bat''.
This will extract A LOT of files and may take some time to complete.
When its done you should find ''chat_filter.san'' in ''D:\extract''.
Copy ''chat_filter.san'' to ''<your RomeEB directory>\EB\data''.
I've installed EB on a new computer but a window launches saying "Failed to read censored word dictionary file: data//chat_filter.san". I have installed RTW, Alexander, EB 1.1, 1.2 and Jirisys' Rome: Total War - Alexander - Europa Barbarorum Mega Mod Pack. So I followed your instructions but I'm wondering how long it takes to extract. Its been about and hour now and its still extracting (I think). Is something wrong?
Swords don't kill people, people with swords kill people.
chat_filter.san is a file you would have to copy from Alexander data folder into EB one. However i cannot 100% confirm if coping itself would work alone as ur using other mod.
for EAEM you can simply download the new link and play it separately from your current game, just save it in any random location.
“Give me a place to stand and with a lever I will move the whole world.”
Ok I tried installing EAEM and fixes, your screen will load but it still asks for chat_filter.san. I copied the chat_filter.san from the Alexander data folder into the EB one but that didn't work.
