New installer for Europa Barbarorum with Barbarian Invasion

[Ferromancer]

Ferromancer,

First off - thanks for the BI-based mod. I've been playing my lastest campaign for about 10 months. As long as I limit the continuous gameplay to 2 hours or less at a stretch I get no CTDs.
I've got a gameplay question that I hope you or one of the experts here can shed some light on. I achieved Polybian reform a long time ago. Now its about 141 BC in my campaign. I've conquered most of historical Rome's territories except for Brittania, Iberia and the Ptolemaic lands in along the southeast section of the Mediterranen. I've eliminated the Epirotes and the Carthaginians. The question I have is about upcoming reforms and technological advances. I've continued playing and many years have passed since the Polybian reforms but I've seen nothing since. Are there futher reforms in the BI executeable? Are there certain trigger points I simply haven't hit yet? I was expecting to eventually come to a point where ballistae, scorpions, and the like would be developed. Do you have any ideas about this?
Thanks,
- CJ

For information how to trigger reforms, please consult this FAQ:

Hi, i'm also having a bit of trouble getting this installer to work. Currently i get an "item not found" message when i try to start a campaign.

Maybe i have not installed everything in the right order, this i what i did:

1) Install RTW
2) Install BI
3) Patch BI to 1.6
4) Install this
5) Install EB
6) Patch EB

I'm running Windows 7 and RTW is not in program files.

Any suggestions?

I think you do need to switch up the order a bit by installing this last. Of course I don't know for sure since I can't even get this to install :P

switch #4 with #6

Hi, there is a way to change the battle map brightness AFTER installing EB for BI, or i have to a) manually change files or b) run the installer again (i suppose the trivial script would not work)?
Thank you

Hi. Sorry if this has been answered already. Does this mod work on Mac?

[CantDrunk03]

I cannot get this to work, was wondering if someone could help.

I installed RTW, BI, BI- patch 1.6, EB 1.1, EB 1.2, and then this mod. Outside of Program Files in the C drive. I also turned off my anti-virus, windows firewall, and spy-bot resident (only programs I know of that would mess with a program running).

This is my fourth attempt, still can't get it going. Here is the output file:

Is there anyway to just copy the failed objects manually? And what the dll file was trying to write to the one file it failed on. Thanks for any help.
