Year in History bugged?

[XSamatan]

Welcome to the forum!

You can check to see if the script is working by starting it via the advisor and opening the console, there you press CURSOR_UP, if it says something about season:... the script is up and running.
Normally this kind of error happens if the script is activated during Ai turns, after a turn without activation or due to a bugged installation.
Please run validateInstall.bat found in your main RTW folder an post your results here.

The console stated: season winter, which I guess would indicate that the script is still up and running. There is also still a four seasons per year, so I think everything is ok?

Regarding the validateinstall.bat. I run that and it produced a huge log and this forum doesn't even support so many characters to copy it all here. I don't understand why it is stating, that I don't have an original install. EB 1.1, 1.2. + the fixes was installed on top of a clean install of RTW 1.5, which has not been modified in anyway before. I bought the gamersgate Gold Edition (about 3 euros!), but I didn't install the Alexander expansion. Installation is not in the program files, but on the D-drive of my laptop.

Here's the opening line from the log and few starting lines:

You don't have an original installation; There are changes to files, or some are missing.
However, these may be conscious changes you have made, to remod EB. See below for details.
