New release for 2024 !
Read the description for more infos.
Hey again, for this new 2024 release i decided to change the name in order to reflect the changes and scope of the project more appropriately.
This update include bugfixes, more restaurations, a big overhaul to the balance of the previous version and most importantly, the addition of Grima and Gothmog, 2 heroes originally planned by EA who got cut.
Those heroes integrate perfectly with the new balance of 1.08 Complete Edition for those factions.
To install, extract in your game installation folder and replaces files when asked.
Note: The !!!betapit file is OPTIONAL and include more art changes to reflect the beta look of the game.
Note2: Next version wich will come soon will include higher zoom out and the complete rework of the campaign.
what rework will the campaign have??
Mostly restoring some cut contents, implementing the new heroes (already done), making some missions harder (for exemple evil edoras)
I really like the new interface, what are the overall new textures and animations and notifications in the game and will the campaign be improved with any new things in the next update of this patch?
The new blue circle interface are part of the optional file (!!!betapit)
Most units just use their high res textures already present in 1.06
But other got reworked to look closer to cinematics and old betas, like uruks and rohan archers
for campaign look at the comment above, you can also check the article
thank you so much for spending your own time to make an amazing game so much better. i appreciate everything you do for the community
Happy that you enjoy
It would be nice if, for balance, you strengthened berserkers in health (up to 300) and self-healing, and weakened wargs in health (up to 200) and removed self-healing - this would make such network matchups as Mordor-Isengard and Isengard-Gondor more balanced.
It is also important to leave leadership to the berserkers and add resistance to fear.
The balance is completly different as i explained in the summary on the main page, berserker are much toughter already
Hi, great mod! Is it compatible with the HD mod?
Well you can use the HD mod but it won't be 100% compatible
the units already all come in HD textures anyway
@[miraak49](members:miraak49:3552392) your patch revert 1.06 widescreen fix, i was wondering if you could fix this ?
What do you mean by reverting, you mean the maps zoom out or the interface being stretched
Both should actually work just fine with 1.08
99% of the players are on widescreen and it just work fine with 1.06 installed prior to 1.08

Wondering if anyone can help me out with installing the files. I downloaded the patch 2.22 version but I can seem to find the installation folder to extract the patch into.
I never tried to install the game with the 2.22 launcher, but normally it should be installed into your C:\program files (x86)\EA games\the battle for middle earth
come faccio ad installalrlo?
Wow I jus DLd this mod and its great. I have a question about the archers. How did you balance them so much better than the official devs? Im serious. In the default game spamming groups of fire arrow upgraded archers is way too busted, but in this mod it is much more manageable. Well done!
I also have a nitpick about the way the Nazgul move when using their fear. The new fear isn't fluid at all. They waste time just sitting there and getting shot at and killed simply because they cant move while using the fear anymore. The Nazgul movement is really glitchy with that new fear implemented. If they swoop down and attack units and u use the fear they teleport back down to the ground. I miss the old way it was. Any plans on changing this back?
I saw a comment on here about it I could've sworn but I cannot find it now...
