Post news Report RSS Age of the Ring Version 8.0

We have released Age of the Ring version 8.0, featuring new factions, a new War of the Ring mode, balance and bug fixes across the board, new tools, and lots more!

Posted by on



Hello!


The final version of Age of the Ring is now released.


Age of the Ring Version 8.0


For a full list of changes, please refer to the CHANGELIST.





HOW TO INSTALL

First, make sure your RotWK is patched to 2.02 v9.0.0. Make sure that Edain, if installed, is disabled.

1. Download and unzip all contents of AgeOfTheRingInstaller8.0.zip into a folder
2. Run AgeOfTheRingInstaller8.0.exe as Administrator
3. The installer creates a shortcut to Age of the Ring 8.0 on your desktop

********** PLEASE READ BELOW **********


  1. THIS IS A FULL VERSION. You don't need to have previous AotR versions installed. You can uninstall previous versions if you want to.
  2. The installer WILL NOT allow you to install the mod into your RotWK or BFME2 installation folder (this would BREAK your game)
  3. The installer WILL NOT allow you to install if you do not have RotWK patch 2.02 v9.0.0 enabled.
  4. If you have previously installed 2.02 v9.0.0 and have enabled the Delay Fix, make sure to disable it as the Delay Fix will prevent mods from being launched
  5. If you do not have 2.02 v9.0.0, you can get it HERE.

PLAYING ONLINE

For using T3A:Online, nothing has changed - just make sure RotWK is hooked from the T3A:Online Launcher.

For using Gameranger, please read the following article:
Gameranger Patch for AotR

This is it. We've officially reached the peak of BfME Modding. Can't wait to play it later after work.

In advance, a heartfelt thank you, for all your hard work!

I can't explain how much I love this mod and how you've been able to rekindle my childhood love for this game by making it amazing and relevant today!

A question, Create a Hero has been one of my favorite features since I was a kid and I absolutely love the updates you've done to it. However, new factions (Rohan, Rivendell, Woodland Realm, and Dol Gurdur) still can't use custom heroes. I'm super happy Harad can! Is this a feature that will be updated later?

Thank you again so much. You guys are incredible.

Try this:

In the skirmish menu, open the custom heroes menu and type the first letter of your hero's name. You can then recruit them when you start the game.

There's a video linked in our discord as well: Discord.com

In some factions you can't add a heroe like Rivendell

Does it work on a pirated version of the game? Unfortunately my physical disc has stopped working/reading, and I think it's beyond saving unfortunately :c

Congrats on release! Is it normal that I can't colour my custom heroes' outfits? They all just the default colour.

Yes, we removed the colour customisation option from CaH.
Hope you're enjoying the release!

Scusa ma come mai avete rimosso l opzione colore? 🙁 Avete fatto un lavoro stupendo eh sia chiaro questo!! Ma il mio Gandalf il grigio non è più grio e Saruman Il Bianco non è più Bianco... E non ha nemmeno la barba lunga.... 😭😭

Thanks for forcing me to download 2.02 v9.0.0. patch thus making all my saved campaign progress unusable, forcing me to start from square one all over again. 👎

No problem! Now you can enjoy the fact that your campaign wont crash when you play them again due to the memory patch included in v9!

Just to iterate more on this, the only saves that are affected by the version change are those in mid-mission. Autosaves still work fine, they have for us all development.

I first want to say that this is a lovely, godly lovely mod.
However, since I installed 8.0, I really can't manage to defeat a Death March AI anymore, I was fairly able to do so in the previous patch, but now I seem to be completely inable to do so. Which I think is a bit sad. Too difficult is not that fun anymore...

If i'm not mistaken, the RoTK camgpaign is stopped permanently? If yes, then it's a pity. I do really enjoy the campaign you guys made

Io vi ringrazio enormemente per cio che continuate a fare!!! Un lavoro stupendo che dimostra passione sono molto riconoscente!! Tenete vivo un gioco stipendo e lo avete enormemente migliorato!! Un regalo stupendo! L unica cosa che volevo segnalare per capire se sia un problema mio meno è che nella sezione per la creazione di eroi alcune opzioni estetiche non vengono salvate e il cambiamento del colore dei vestiti non è più disponibile!! Nemmeno la vostra patch 8.1 risolve quel problema.
Grazie per l attenzione e ancora Grazie!!!

Guys It s an amazing game !!!! I have no words ti descrive the Amazing work You have fine!! However i don t understand why removing the colors from the customization of the Heroes I created a Gandalf the Gray that now Is no longer Grey🤣 and a Saruman the White to use as Good character that now Is no longer White. Some aesthetic option are no longer avaible.

Hello guys, please i need your help. The mod cannot start cos there is this error screen :

Error parsing field 'End' in block 'Object' in file 'data\ini\object\goodfaction\units\men\treemen.ini', line 16.

Because of the severity of this error the game will now exit.

Is it possible to resolve the problem? My RotWK have the patch 2.02 v9.0.0 installed. I tried to resolve with the patch release 8.1 but always doesn't works.
Thanks !!!

Why does the Westfold mission not allow you to go beyond the first steps? I kill orcs, when I enter the city block, I am not allowed to continue.

The mod is incredible, I'd like you if possible amend the Ents, I mean in the case of Barbol it must be upgrading from 1 to 10 and add some heroe powers as the rest of the heroes, and you can create other kind of ents as well..... like in the movie, we just have one style of Ent you know what I mean.... Thank you I hope you can consider my comment.

Hello dear engineers, I would like to thank you for your construction services and for your daily efforts, please add another part called easterlings to the game just like haradrim, which is a large part of the forces of darkness. And add the myths of today's Eastern world such as Persia, China and Japan to it. I think that by doing this you invite the Eastern society to play.

To be honest, I expected a lot more. Totally unreadable game, can't be played in 4:3 format, too many small details. And I still don't have a good opinion about the game itself, heroes are not heroes, an ordinary battalion kills a hero who is " the best and the strongest and the most expensive" elves are comedy, dwarves erebor faction names that don't even exist in the book. This garbage will never be like the original Rotwk or bfme 2.
