    Default RTW, EB, STEAM

    So I bought RTW on steam a few weeks ago and I want to install EB. I downloaded EB and I put the mod and the patch with it in Computer> Local Disk C > Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps > common > Rometotal war gold

    And I click on the single player shortcut and it just says "can't find steam."

And in this way we will make it known to the whole world that we are true Romans and their descendants, and our name will never die and we will make proud the memories of our parents." ~ Despot Voda 1561

    "The emperor Trajan, after conquering this country, divided it among his soldiers and made it into a Roman colony, so that these Romanians are descendants, as it is said, of these ancient colonists, and they preserve the name of the Romans." ~ 1532, Francesco della Valle Secretary of Aloisio Gritti, a natural son to Doge

    I put this "-mod:eb -show_err" from http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=208150 in the place they said to but when I tried to do a single player battle vs the AI all the factions had the same troops all mixed up and it said 1.1 version. It's all a jumbled mess.

    Custom battles using the correct unit line ups with a Steam install require swapping your edu, then swapping back again for campaign. I don't play custom battles so I'm not 100% on the details, did you try a campaign? Your install was probably ok.
    As for still being 1.1, when you select the file path for 1.2, there is a part you need to delete before installing, it's at the end of the file path and will be pretty obvious when you read it.

    i can't say for custom battles, but

    you need to have steam updated 100%, same with R:TW. then, install EB 1.1 to steam/steamapps/common/rome total war gold

    then, install EB 1.2 to the same place. make sure that you remove the 'this is where you install EB to' bit: it needs to be removed manually else it will make a folder inside there called 'ths is where you install EB to' or w/e. then, put in that command line into the launch option for R:TW (right click on R:TW, hit properties, then set launch options, its somewhere there). then you're done.

    I got it to work. So far the campaign seems good. I just started a few without saving to see if it works. Now the problem is trying to figure out which to play first. Thanks both of you
