CTD "unspecified error" as anything is initially loading (Grand Campaign or Custom Battle)

14:25:01.718 [data.invalid] [error] Failed to open file 'mods/EBII/data/world/maps/base/map_trade_routes.tga'

This is not the only such message in the Error Log, but it does appear to be representative of them.

Sounds like the map is not loading properly?

Need the whole log to ascertain what's going on.

eb.system.log.zip

I've got it saved as a Zip, but how exactly do I get the Zip to attach here? Sorry in advance for being some computer-illiterate!

Is there an email address I can send the zip file to?

Click on Go Advanced at the bottom right, then find Manage Attachments, follow the prompts to attach to a post.

Or host it on a site like MediaFire if it's bigger than 10MB (which I think is the forum limit).

eb.system.log.zip

OK - I think the zip file is here now?

The file is indeed there, but I have no idea what's happened:

Your map is indeed broken, though how I have no clue.

try to uninstall and then reinstall from the beginning?

Uninstalled, reinstalled, and got the same "unspecified error" message at every attempt to start a game.

Are you using a strange operating system; Windows 10, Linux or on a Mac?

Not unless you'd call Windows XP Professional a "strange operating system"?
