I've found out why M2TW lagged on my laptop - the game run with integrated graphic. It seems M2TW fails to see GT 650M in auto-mode. Manual setting has solved the problem.
And now I just can't wait for EB2 calmly and patiently, because my laptop is absolutely ready for this awesome game.

Me too. I played vanilla RTW only 2 times. M2TW - only 5-10 turns of 3 campaigns. Boring. Clergymen armed with crosses, pfff. When I saw in ETW Dagestan militia wearing tricorns and stockings I laughed like ctazy. Only vanilla S2TW is playable.

I just bought M2TW again for this :) cant wait

Go EBII! Erm, come, EBII!

I don't have such a problem with S2TW and R2TW. I think I have to buy a newest fastest coolest PC AND a 5-7 old computer with Win XP. I hope one of them will run EB2 properly.

Try to deactivate antialiasing transparency in your graphic card drivers. Older games (like M2tw) was not made for those parameters and the graphic card tries to smooth every single blade of grass.

I really hope this can help because we will hear of this problem as soon as EBII will come out :D

M2TW doesn't choose GT 650M in automode, and integrated graphic is too weak for the game. So I set the videocard manually, and it worked. M2TW runs fine on highest settings now.

Give Broken Crescent a try while waiting. You won't regret it.

Agreed. Broken Crescent is a pretty exceptional mod.

Try IB2 conquestus Britannae, you will not regret it ;)

Same here :)

well, count me in! I had so much fun with EB1 :) I learned how to do simple mod changes just for eb a few years ago, it has been a big help to my enjoyment since :) looking forward to the good times to come!

I agree with ib2, very good mod

I'd be more than happy to help out with writing unit/building/agent/trait/retinue descriptions.

id be happy to help with the basics, stats, descr, sprites n such.

Usually they recruit people here. http://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showth...t-thread/page4
