    Question Map.rwm not generated at campaign startup

    Hi guys,

    I have a problem with EB 1.0 I never had with EB0.81

    The symptom:
    When starting a new campaign (faction doesn't matter), the game crashes to desktop as soon as I click "Start campaign" after setting up difficulty etc. (and yes, i have -show_err).

    First I was quite stunned and it took a while until I realized where the problem lies: Rome for some obscure reason refuses to generate a new map.rwm

    Well, I bypassed this problem because I found - after a good hour of searching - others who had the same problem and someone was so kind and had uploaded a map.rwm

    Well, good so far, but I noticed quite soon that this map.rwm possibly is from an older version, noticeable by land being visible where non should (e.g. a 4-region-border is visible on southwest greece) and other minor inconsistencies. But that didn't bother me much as long as I could play the awesome mod without problems the rest of time.

    Well, now I had to use some of the optional fixes for 1.0 as I encountered some of the annoying stuff, and I obviously would have to regenerate the map.rwm. And well, that of course still doesn't work :(

    And I'm also unable to find the thread I found once because for some other mysterious reason the search form gives never results for terms like "map" or "rwm" in the Europa Barbarorum subforum...

    So, now the question: Is someone out there who can either tell me WHY the map.rwm doesn't generate as it should or at least someone who can upload his map.rwm for me?
    I installed all the permanent fixes ( descr_disasters.txt, Oppida, export_VnVs.txt, Script fixes) and two optional fixes (Apeleutheroi nerf, Pahlava MIC5) as I want my client rulers to stay lazy decadent incompetent bureaucrats who never dare to leave town for a ride or something (did I mention they have to be fat and hate sports?)

    Greetings

    PS: I know it perhaps is a bit disliked if my first post is a cry for help, but well, the months up to now I managed to find everything needed by just searching or following the active community here (which by the way is absolutely incredible :) )

    PPS: Of course I noticed the EB Installation validation thread about 2 minutes after posting this -_- . Sorry for trouble, I'll take a look in the described process there first.

    That bit is working as intended. The borders south of Sparta are there to give excellent opportunities for recruiting mercenaries.

    Thanks for the quick replies :)

    @Maksimus: As i stated in the PPS Edit, I missed the link for whatever reason... I now have the fine map.rwm and everything works as it should. Thanks nevertheless

    @Sakkura: Ah, didn't know that, looked somehow a bit strange, but makes sense of course.

    @Marcus: Yes, had it in the beginning after installing EB 1.0, but replaced it again with the original .exe some days later because I heard it could be the cause of various problems.
