Hello everybody,

I just wrote a couple of guides in another thread, but I beleive that they desrve a thread of their own:

ALBM's big short simple guide on how to install EB with no problems.

1. Uninstall your current installation of R:TW.
2. Re-install R:TW.
3. (If you have Gold do not do this step, skip to step five) Download the 1.3 patch for R:TW from here and follow the instructions in the readme. If you have problems with this just ask.
4. (If you have Gold do not do this step, go to step five) Download the 1.5 patch for R:TW from here. Again follow the instruction in the readme and if you need any help ask here.
5. Download EB from here.
6. Install EB and follow the instructions until it askes you where you want to install EB.
7. (If you don't have Gold skip this step) If you have Gold change it to C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome: Total War
8. Let the installer do it's magic.
9. Play EB from the shortcut on the desktop. Whatever you do do not delete it. It is the only possible way of accessing EB.
10. Keep the EB installer somewhere safe on your hard drive. You will need it if you delete your shortcut.

ALBM's short simple guide on how to access EB if you have deleted the shortcut on your desktop.

1. Right click on your desktop, left click on new and then click on shortcut.
2. (If you have Gold skip to step four) When it says "type the location of the item" type in "C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb -nm -show_err" (without the punctuation marks).
3. (If you do not have Gold got skip to step four) When it says "type the location of the item" type in "C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -mod:eb -nm -show_err" (without the punctuation marks).
4. Play EB using the shortcut on the desktop.

This does not work if you have pointed your R:TW to a different directory on installation.

Good luck playing EB,
