ALEXANDER EB

[vartan]

Why doesnt somebody seriously rewrite a new topic just for using the alex engine with EB? i installed Alex with EB over a year ago and i got stuck installing it as did everyone else. OH and look everyone is still having trouble reading the piss poor instructions on how to install it. Do the mod a favour and some 1 rewrite instructions FFS!

LOL I will write something up (and make an instructional video) when I find time. I may or may not have time sometimes on or after Tuesday of this week. I've installed the Alex engine mod for EB (as well as EAEM) and every time I have been successful. When I've had problems I've sorted them out. I spent a few posts here some while back, pages in the 40s or 50s, can't remember. People constantly have problems but it should not be so difficult. I'll keep you all updated if and when I make my instructionals.

its really all in the main page already:

quote:
''In details:

1. Install Rome Total War + 1,3 and 1,5 patches.
2. Install Alexander expansion or extract the Alx.exe file only into your RTW folder.
3. Install EB 11 and EB 12.
4. EB fixes.

a) To play EB with only improved engine you need use
5. ALX engine files.

b) If you want to play full modification you need to use
5. EAEM files.
5a. EAEM fixes.

6. Change the target line of EB.exe single player.

Here's are fully updated alex.exe ENGINE mod files that work with TrivialScript

NOTE2: THESE FILES ARE FOR ''ENGINE'' USE ONLY
THEY ARE NOT A PART OF THE EXTENDED EB ALEXANDER MOD
USE THEM ONLY TO PLAY VANILLA EB WITH ALX.exe

EB 12

how more simple can you put this? Or players dont read the thread maybe?

LOL Maks, I would agree but that's coming from people who have installed it just fine. Not everyone understands something the same way as others, so a different approach always helps! =] (woops emoticon)

i gues i am missing the point then o.o

Maybe a full sophisticated write up of how to install the 2 different mods you propose, rather than short descriptions, dont get me wrong im ok with it now, but im only going off the fact that everytime i look at the Alex EB thread some 1 is always struggeling to install it. To a casual modder it is def easier but as i can say my self i struggled when first installing it :S

[Maksimus]

first time i got internet up I have been playing RTW for 2 years already. then i got too se mods for the 1st time. Even tho I modded my RTW I had no idea how to install any mod untill i spent some more times at the forums, and learend what means what in a sence that will help me understand mods.
If anyone wanna make more simple guied pls post here ill add on main pate.

Only easier thing would be if I would have just made installer with full RTW and Alex there already but moddes- and that illegal.

Hey there!

I installed your sub-mod according to the instructions you and the people on the forum here gave and still have a problem to run a campaign.

Here´s what I did:
Installed...
...R:TW (ver 1.5)
...R:TW Alex
...EB 1.1 + 1.2 patch + 1.2 fixes
...EAEM files
and changed the link to run the game.

It starts properly but when I try to start a single player game a box appears with the message:"please select an item from the list."
Don´t know what I should have done wrong so I would be glad if you guys could help me out.

Thanks in advance
