If you have any questions, problems or just want to talk with me about some stuff feel free to add me Steamcommunity.com or just leave a comment.
If there are any other major problems or minor yet problematic issues in RJ-RotWK Modification then please leave a comment about them. (Ideas, Suggestions or New Features are welcome aswell).
I can try somewhat fix n' update the stuff.
My friend and I managed to fix the WotR Preview and added cool maps. Or better ones for current ones. And problem is, I debated whether or not to upload it. I think it's best if you asked and got permission from at least one of the team members. My friend gave me permission to fix it, but I just didn't bother lol
Anyways, I would upload it here, the problem for it is: I'd have to upload all my map files from the "roaming/appdata/local/rise of the witch king" blah blah blah map folder (and I have a LOT of maps that aren't even part of the fix) but it does work, and the problem about uploading it is, I'd need permission from every mapper I downloaded those maps from. And that's a couple 100 modders. But yeah, please fix it for the other players.
do it do it naow. plzplz always wanted a wotr where I could besiege moria, capture amon hen, and other well known lotr cities and places that're not in the game. Dunno if it's fixed lol. Atleast the last time i tried to play wotr on rj rotwk all the custom maps were near-harad
Post it as an unofficial add-on. In all honestly I don't think the creator of this is coming back and maintaining this as a result is up to us.
P.S. Give credit to the mappers in the patch when you upload as well and I would also say unless they are part of an active mod now as long as you credit them I doubt they will complain.
I have noticed that the Rivendell faction does not have actually have any floodgates and can't use the power even after buying the flood upgrade. Also, for some reason, the upgrade for Lothlorien with the guards on the fortress implements elven warriors instead of Galadhrim.
First of All I want to say this is by far the best mod out there for this game and I'm glad to see there's a community still working on this game.
I tested the game (yes I'm a little late) so far no problems except that in the War of the ring mode when fighting on the Minas Tirith tile, some other desert haradrim map loads instead of the Minas Tirith map. I'm not sure if that's on purpose or not just thought I'd mention it here. I'll see if I can just fix it for myself for now.
On another note some unit icons aren't of the quality they could be compared to other units. I could probably help with any designs you might need just message me.
Cheers, and good work
Ok the problem is easy to fix. It's in livingworldregionsrjnew.inc you just have to correct the string where it says "Map name". A lot of the new maps are using the map "WOR Harad".
I would like to thank you and others for coming to help keep this mod alive and hope that the community will be able to keep this mod going.
Hi Tohka, I downloaded the bugfix and i was playing a network map game 3 vs 5 brutal, but I still got game crashed. I don't mean to offend but this is the same type of crash I would always get in the past whenever I tried playing long games with this mod (usually when I'm up against many brutals the game would crash as I recall in the past) RJ RotWK is by far the most well done mod in this community (excluding Edain because i can't read German), but sadly I don't think I can play this mod if I get unexpected crashes. I appreciate you bringing this mod back up and fixing some bugs, but I believe it's most important that you fix this crash otherwise I don't see how people can play this mod
In War of the Ring-campaign mod when i try to play rivendell(rts) the game crashes HELP!
Morgul orcs cannot attack if you upgrade them (Forged blades, armors)
Here's a list of bugs I've ecountered so far:
-Opponents being able to walk through walls.
-Arnor wall hubs has a lot less hitpoints than the walls themself.
-AI seems to only aim for wall hubs when pushing through walls.
-AI REALLY loves catapults end-game.
-When using Arnor faction in War of the Ring gamemode, one of the faction heroes tends to duplicate themself on board, crashing the whole game in later stages.
-Not really a bug, but a lot of missing icons and missing tooltips.
-AI usually freezes when selected as one of the new factions.
-When calling from aid from Mirkwood/Rivendell, it takes way too long time to be able to actually produce the units.
-When playing against AI (Especially evil factions) this random ability strike appears, locking both allied and enemy players with some kind of red cripple strike, making them immobible for 5-10 seconds.
-Playing as elves, you're able to produce up to 9 elite units, which should be limited to just 3. (Rivendell elites, Mirkwood elites, and Lorien elites.)
-At some occations builders are invincible.
-Actions log (The text that appears on the upper right corner saying for example your barracks is complete, sometimes shows the wrong message. (For example when playing as Arnor, and you purchase the upgrade "Ally with the Elves of Middle-Earth", it will appear as "Ally with the Dunedain completed." in the action log and vice versa.)
-When playing as Mordor, and upgrading your Nazguls with Felbeasts, you have to have them die first, before being able to upgrade to Felbeasts.
- Elven Warriors on Rohan Faction won't get the Banner Carrier upgrade from Armory.

You are the real MVP man. Community bugfix. Kudos mate.
hey man u would really make me happy if u could edit also the war of the ring mode, no ones touch it and I'd like to have more variety in colors and more than two teams, not to mention the fact that we could make more heroes to conquest and not just the 4 of the beggining! Thanks dude!;) Hope it is not asking too much
@TohkaYatogami: You are awesome! Please continue to patch this amazing mod!
The big bug I've noticed is that the Men of the East and Elf factions has trouble in Skirmish mode. Something about the having sub-factions makes them only chose one every time and barely send out units if at all
The Rivindel mission in the special RJ War of the Ring mode crashes on starting
Would LOVE to see all the "WIP" placeholders finally replaced with what they were intended to become.
Also could you place all the gamedata attributes into the notepad format, I was only able to play balance what he added into that format... unless someone has made an stat editor for the game since I last played.
I hope to see your bugfix become a full mod add-on and finally complete this epic mod!
Sweeeeeeeeeeet. You should totally post this as a news topic on the RJ-forums. =D There has been some discussion about the mapping side of WotR. There are quality maps and mapmakers already waiting for someone to get the maps coded in properly.
Lovely to see that this mod is still alive, and I can't tell you how much I love the fix for the Elves in WotR, god I can have so much more fun! Now all that I miss are the Greenwood structures and some portraits to the W.I.P units for my ultimate Restoration of Greenwood experience :D
Oh and for the suggestion/ideas part, well obviously the things written above, and possibly make it so that the mod is available in the editor, I don't know how hard or if it's even possible, but it would mean the world to me <3
All the best,
Altaïr
Me and my friend have been playing this for a couple of years now. (still playing!)
I am so glad you actually are back and alive haha.

-When playing as Mordor, and upgrading your Nazguls with Felbeasts, you have to have them die first, before being able to upgrade to Felbeasts.
Suggestions:
-I'd really love to see Azog a tad more buffet (and bigger!)
-Make all units of the same name be able to combine to a larger unit. (Currently this doesn't work for some higher tier rangers.)
-Remove the ability to combine ranger and melee units, as these doesn't function properly in combat.
-I'd love to see the "Dunedain Captian" unit from Arnor with more abilities. (Right now it has none.)
-Like previous people before me has said; finish off characters, tooltips, and icons.
This is what I can come up with right now, I'll update if more comes up :)
I really appreciate the work you have done with this mod, I've really had a great deal of good hours with my friends on this game.
How am I supposed to make the new factions like MotE or Rohan be played by the IA on created maps??
Things i would like to see are
1) All heroes that are missing an ability given some sort of ability
2) Is it possible to create a lvl 30 power even if its something silly like summon a few batallions
3) Make all factions have the same amount of heroes
4) When you play through the wotr campaign on certain maps when you right click you get a blaring red screen then it goes away until you right click again
5) Maybe for the sub-factions also make mirkwood playable
6) When using the inn alliance system make it finally add those heroes at the intended lvl right now it does nothing at lvl 10
Other than that this is easily the most amazing mod i have ever seen created and the detail you put into the elf faction is just incredible keep up the good work.
Also noticed that the super mordor orcs that look like uruk-hai either have way to much hp or armor and do way to much damage. 3 batallions of them can single handedly wipe out an army and an army of heroes
i dont understand the installation , can anyone help me with it?
Rj is unstable. corpses not fade away and my computer so pretty lag. this is something that I would want to be changed. what can i do?
Does anybody know how to use mod files in the worldbuilder or make it so that the objects you can use in the worldbuilder is RJ's mod objects with all the modifications and not the vanilla objects? (As in MotE units and structures for example) I found something that could work but from what I've read it only works for bfme2 worldbuilder and not rotwk, I may have misunderstood it so I'll paste a link down below to what I mean so that maybe somebody could explain it to me or atleast state their thoughts about it here. The3rdage.net
I really want to make some scenarios with RJ's changes; Units, models, annimations, powers, heroes, etc. and I've searched for how to use mod files in the worldbuilder for over a month with no success hence this comment to look for answers from you guys. It would really mean the world to me if I could play around with RJ's mod inside the editor.
Hi,
I've found this stuff stuff around:
The3rdage.net
The3rdage.net
Hopefully it will be helpful for you.
I am so delighted to see an update for this brilliant mod, I created an account just to let you people know that you made me really happy. I hope you continue what RJ started. This game is one of the best Official LOTR games, keep it up! Thanks!!!
can you please try to fix some LAN connectivity problems?
There is already a 'data' folder in the 'RJ_RotWK_1_06' folder so which one do you keep or how did you guys put in the bug fix? Thanks
Hey, i am soon going to play the RJ mod with some of my friends, so i decided to try and fix some bugs. (I am not a coder or anything, just logical thinking!)
So here is what i did to fix the arnor Dunedain archers combined horde longshot (arrow drop):
If you go to: data\ini\object\goodfaction\hordes\arnor
You find the horde file, now i took this code from 'Object ArnorRangerHorde' and applied it to 'Object ArnorRangerDoubleComboHorde'
Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_LongShotUnpause ; RJ
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityArnorLongShot
TriggeredBy = Upgrade_ObjectLevel2
End
Behavior = OCLSpecialPower ModuleTag_ArrowVolleyEvil
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityArnorLongShot
OCL = OCL_LongShotAbility
CreateLocation = CREATE_AT_LOCATION
UpdateModuleStartsAttack = No
StartsPaused = Yes ; RJ
;// Need to set a model condition (unused by the horde anyway) in order to
;// freeze the horde for the duration of the spell SetModelC
SetModelC
DisableDuringAnimDuration = Yes
End
Behavior = WeaponFireSpecialAbilityUpdate ModuleTag_FireballUpdate
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityArnorLongShot
PackTime = 5000 // returning to flap
MustFinishAbility = Yes
SpecialWeapon = MenLongShotWeapon
NeedLivingTargets = No
;PackSound = LongshotRangerCall ;this worked!
;UnpackSound = LongshotRangerCall ;this didn't work
;PrepSoundLoop = LongshotRangerCall ;this worked!
TriggerSound = RangerVoiceLongShot
ApproachRequiresLOS = No
End
I placed it behind the commandset line just to be sure, and surprisingly it works fine!
I'm having some issues installing the patch. The mod and base game work just fine, but when i copy the patch data into the mod data and then try to play the patched mod it crashes. I've tried re-downloading reinstalling and everything else i could think of but i still can't get the patch to work, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Let's restore the mod, it's the best we can do to it.

I can't find the RJ_RotWK_1_06' folder please help
It should be in your C: drive
My RJ_RotWK_1_06' folder already has a "Data" folder, where do I place the new "Data" folder that comes within the zip file?!!!!
I found bugs in Rohan, Arnor and Men of the East factions.
In Rohan there are several problems with the banner carrier upgrades. Elves cannot get the upgrade, and new units produced after the puchase of the BCU they are not able to get it by the blacksmith.
In Arnor the Elite Royal Calvary can only sumon 1 batallion, and as far as I know are 3 elite batallions per faction.
In the MotE faction there is a problem getting the fire arrows upgrade. I cannot purchase them, the description says to level up the blacksmith to level 3, but even if it is leveled up I cannot get the fire arrows.
I found a new glitch with MotE-AI in Skirmish mode, they build their walls all around their camp but they never place a gate, so they produce units but they are never able to get out of their base, until I arrive with a siege unit and break one of the walls (this incident was in the Minas Tirith map, I think it was a custom map, I still have to verify if they do the same in other maps), I fear it will be the same with Rohan, Arnor and the Elves which are the "add-on" factions created by RJ.
I'm having trouble downloading this modification, could someone help me please,
Thank you.
Can someone pls solve the MotE factions hero problem :( I have made Harad hero from create a hero and I can't use it with MotE :( If anyone fix that problem please let me know :(
