This thread is intended for:
  • installations issues,
  • CTD,
  • error message boxes,
  • ...

It is not for bugs report, but some bugs may cause a CTD.


EU2 1.08 is no longer supported.


Important: Mac users must install Db Monarchs/Leaders RAR archive available in AGCEEP website in order to avoid CTD and other weird "behaviour" with countries forming in mid-game and tag changes.
EDIT: According to last EU2 Mac release, Db Monarchs/Leaders RAR archive shouldn't be necessary anymore, but still provived just in case.

Another EU2 1.09 Mac version bug:
If you experience weird error when loading a saved game, open the savefile with a text editor and replace all "-nan" with "0.000" (without double-quotes).


For those who "lost" AGCEEP shortcut on desktop:
You could have a copy of the shortcut in Start menu inside AGCEEP folder.

If you have to create a new shortcut, make a copy of EU2 original shortcut, right click on the icon and select Properties, change values:
Target: "<path of EU2 folder>\EU2.exe" <path of EU2 folder>\AGCEEP
Start in (not sure of English version): "<path of EU2 folder>"

Icon (to be modified by corresponding button): <path of EU2 folder>\AGCEEP\Gfx\agceep.ico

In lines above, replace <path of EU2 folder> with the location of EU2 folder according to your install of the game. Something like: C:\Program files\Europa Universalis 2


For those who forgot to select "Kingdom of Italy" or "Kingdom of Germany" option before starting a game (and don't understand why corresponding kingdom doesn't form when all conditions are fulfilled...):

For Italy, open your savefile with a text editor and add:
event = "AGCEEP\Events\AGCEEP_Alt_Italy.eue"
on the same line where all other 'event =' directives are located.

Don't forget to make a backup of your savefile first, just in case.

For Germany, same procedure with AGCEEP_Alt_Germany.eue


When game freezes... (PC version - not sure for Mac version)
Use Alt Tab to see if there is a message box and information about conflict with leaders or monarchs. Click Ignore button. Game should continue after that without any problem.

Error message when launching AGCEEP in Vista

Thanks for the answer! actually the AGCEEP folder is inside the Paradox folder but not insider the EU2 folder (i.e. when i get into the paradox folder I see two subfolders, one is EU2 and the other one is AGCEEP), shall I copy AGCEEP into the EU2 folder? also the desktop shortcut wasnt able to find the eu2.exe file and I had to link it manually which may be another sign of misplacement ...

Welcome!

Better continue in this thread (Amnis didn't update stickies yet but current version is 1.56).

Is AGCEEP installed in EU2 folder? Do you see AGCEEP folder when you open EU2 folder? If not, AGCEEP is installed at the wrong place and proposed default path was not the right one for you (you will have to click the Browse button in AGCEEP installer and manually find EU2 installation folder).

Hello,

I have just installed EUII (with 1.09 patch) and AGCEEP Deluxe on my new laptop which supports Vista system. Everything runs smooth until I select the scenarios/country and then click on "Start" after that I get a fatal error message saying that the file "AGCEEP/scenarios/../reformation_events" cannot be opened and the game just crushes ....
any ideas how I can fix this? I have tried already to reinstall ...

Many thanks!
 
Better uninstall AGCEEP from where it is (use uninstall program) and reinstall inside EU2 folder. Installation will be clean and AGCEEP shortcut should be fine.

But simply moving AGCEEP folder into EU2 folder could do the trick since shortcut is already modified (if correction is right).

It's that exact same problem that occurs to me. So I just have to reinstall it directly inside the EUII folder and everything should be fine?

EDIT: I should have post here first, sorry for the double post.
