After years I came back to EB, but apparently the newest version (v1.3 Finale) seems to have some problems still and comes with its own share of bugs (and development seemes to have come to halt recently?). Besides, it apparently only works with Alexander(?), but I only have BI (this is stupid anyway: I have the retail-/CD-version of RomeTW plus BI, entered the activation code in steam and thus received the "Rome Total War Collection" which, however, only includes RomeTW and BI but not Alex - at the same time, I now have no option anymore to buy Alex, as if Steam thinks it´s already included in the Collection; apparently I´m not the only one with that problem, neither..)
Anyway - I am therefore desperately looking for a working download link for the most recent stable version of EB before v1.3 (so that I don´t require Alex) - seems to me that this would be v1.21a (because v1.21 b and c apparently were not that stable), but I´m not sure. I can only find working links to v1.1 and the 1.2 update (and some submods, but again, the crucial one "v1.11 for EB 1.2" became part of the official EB and is not availyble anymore, or rather, only in its most recvent incarnation as v1.3/Finale..).
Or else - is v1.3 without the "Finale"-patch (in case I can use it with BI only to begin with) no less stable as the old v1.21 and would be a decent (and more recent) substitute?
On a side note, I also would be grateful for general tipps about sub-mods/mini-mods for EB - maybe it´s possible to whip up a nice combination of minimods based on v1.2 which would provide a similar experience? Any recommendations?
Thank you very much for any help!
