I guess you can shave off 4 letters by giving the folder a one letter name(S/steamapps/common/RTW instead of Steam/steamapps/common/RTW) but it's still kinda annoying. I hope EB2 takes steam players into account since the bug is now known.:)
One of the EB2 playtesters is using Steam, so far successfully, so we haven't forgotten you! And bovi worked a project to go in and reduce the file name lengths on the unti textures that seemed to be the source of the problem, and we haven't seen the CTD since. So that will help too. No bandwidth to go back and redo EB1 unfortunately - it's a massive job and we can't lose focus on EB2.
