Idiot List

1) Install EBII 2.01
2) Without installing anything else, run EBII 2.01. Loading might take some time on the first startup, but will be smoother after that.
3) Begin a campaign in EBII 2.01. You do not need to play it, just start it up.
4) Quit EBII 2.01.
5) Install EBII 2.04x, where x is the current patch version.
6) Enjoy!

What will happen if I install EBII 2.04 before starting the mod and a new campaign the first time?

Some items may not set up correctly. You must run 2.01 before installing 2.04.

All this will disappear with the autumn release; then it'll just be "install EBII 2.1".
