    Default Europa Barbarorum - Mac

    Hello. I had a quick question to anybody with some knowledge on modding. Currently, Ive made my Mac installation of RTW:G (1.5) read-write which theoretically allows for the usage of mods. I mention theoretically, because I was hoping to try EB first. Unfortunately the only way to install the mod would be with a .exe file, which no matter how hard I try, is about impossible with a Mac. No, I don't want to use Crossover, that's why I bought Mac RTW in the first place.

    So, is there anywhere I could find the files in a folder? the .exe is really the only thing stopping me from playing, unless to run the mod you need another .exe file? If so... I'm at a loss.

    Any help or answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time!

    Sorry, I've got little experience with games on Mac, maybe this thread can help you.
    Did you made a forum/google search for this topic?

    You always can extract the installers into an empty folder on a PC and manually move it to your Mac.

    First, Yes, I did check google, and both forums for information. Unfortunately I tried your method. (Installing on a windows computer, and moving it over.) and the Feral interactive Games screen, pops up with an error during launch. Apparently you changed the name of the intro movie, and the Feral program thinks that the whole thing is broken. Is there anyway around this?

    *EDIT 1* Nevermind. Seems Mac's actually replace the old folder with the new one, as opposed to keeping certain files and discarding the ones that need replacement. Will try installing manually, with me overlooking each and every file that goes in.

    *EDIT 2* Ok, positive I put all of the data stuff in the right folder, and all of the stuff outside of EB Data went next to the regular data folder. Now. Whenever I start the game, it runs, but after the first EB flash screen, it freezes. Or should I say, never loads. I press enter, and it crashes to desktop. Any ideas?

    Also, of note, it seems that I am having the exact same problem as the guy in the other thread (amdonati.)

    I don't mean to double post, but I felt the last one was getting a bit crowded.

    I now have EB happily running on my Mac. Thanks for pointing to that other thread. My questions where answered there, and I was able to fill in the missing blanks and get the game running.
