Hi I am having an error show up again and again it says that : 'You need to install a Font File (ITCBLKAD.TTF) Before Playing the Mod', can you please tell me what to do.

Hey I downloaded the installer and ran the launcher it downloaded the mod but I can't see any of the files it has downloaded and when I run the launcher it just says that the mod is up to date and closes.

What should I do?

Thanks

Hi is there any way to play the Hero Submod along with the unofficial English Patch?
Thanks

Thanks DuBaas.

Ok managed to get patch 1.5 to work just if someone could tell me 4 things I would be very thankful. They are :-
1) does mod overwrite any kingdoms or medieval 2 total war files after installation?
2) if it does the above then should I install it in the same way as Roma Surrectum mod for RTW by copy / pasting the vanilla games files in another folder and installing the mod to that folder.
3) and should I install the mod parts into the main medieval 2 total war folder or into the sub folder "mods"?
4) can I play vanilla games after mod installation?

Hi I have downloaded the 1.5 patch for kingdoms I also have got the 1.3 patch for Medieval 2 Total War but I don't know how to install 1.5 patch?

Ok thanks. Also does the mod overwrite any medieval 2 total war files?

Hi do i need any specific patch of vanilla games? if so which one and how to download. Thanks

Oh and I forgot to tell you about an idea I had for the mod:- That when you play in Helm's deep with Rohan you have the power of summoning Gandalf permanently and if I am right there are 2 other powers, one of summoning Aragorn, Legolas & Gimli temprorily (which I am not sure is there when playing in Helm's Deep) and another of summoning Erkenbrand. If the Aragorn, Legolas & Gimli power is not there merge the Gandalf and Erkenbrand power and add the Legolas, Aragorn and Gimli power and make it permanent. If it is already available make it permanent and place it on the power tree before the Gandalf and Erkenbrand power.

Hi Gnomi
1)No my computer is quite good I don't think that is the problem, the level seems to crash at one fixed point 45 mins or so into the level, I thought that If I saved the game 30 mins into the level I could play 45 mins more of the level from where I saved the game. But it crashes at that same point.
2) But why would Aragorn as king have the bow, I mean u have so many powers being added and removed from heroes as they progress through the game, so why can't that power be removed when he becomes he becomes Aragorn the defender of Helm's Deep from Strider the Ranger.
3) Ok as you judge to be right I don't know what HERO-damage or HERO_RANGED mean. But I have another suggestion also that maybe you could change Beregond's power of deploying soldiers to guard buildings to deploying soldiers to guard heroes. Which I think is more like his role in the books.
4) I went to the link you gave me but i didn't understand what to do out there because of it's being in German. Could you please explain what to do out there in more detail. For eg:- what you mean by you can post the number here. Also am I right that text no. 16 is not translated.

I also had another thing to ask:-
How to get the Hero Submod to work I downloaded it and placed it in the Edain mod folder (ROTWK folder) but it didn't work when I selected it in the switcher it just gave me an error. I know you don't have anything to do with the Submod but I don't know where to contact the makers of the Submod. If I can contact them on moddb or anywhere other than your website which is in German please tell me where.

Hi I have a few things to say:-
1) Whenever I play the campaign the 1st level works fine but 45 or so into the 2nd level the game crashes.
2) Please give Aragorn as Strider toggle between bow/sword. After all he's chief of the Dunedain.
3) Give Beregond toggle between spear/sword instead of bow/spear. He was just a Citadel Guard as per the books so why should he be able to do something that the citadel guards cannot do? He's only a hero because he was named in books. Or give him a bow/sword(instead of spear) toggle when he becomes the Captain of Faramir's guard.
4) I would like to help you with the translation, I do not know German so I could use Google Translate to get the meaning of the German text and then edit the English result that Google Translate will give me to make it better.

Please reply.

Thanks got Edain working in english now.:-)

Hi, 2 things:-
1) Could someone tell me where to download the unofficial English version of Edain 3.8.1.
2) To the Edain team I would like to help in the translation, just so that you are aware of it I don't know German but I do know English so if you would let me help I could use Google Translate and get it to give me the basic meaning of the text and then edit it to be better. Also if you would like me to help then could you give me smaller amounts of text till 25th March(my exams).:-)

Thanks Caras_Galadhon it worked.

Hi I'm having trouble playing BotTA. I have edited the target box of both RotWK and BotTA as written in the instructions above.

The target box of:-
1) BotTA is:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings,
The Rise of the Witch-king\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod C:\BOTTA
2) RotWK is:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings,
The Rise of the Witch-king\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod C:\BOTTA

The start in box of:-
1) BotTA is:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings,
The Rise of the Witch-king"
2) RotWK is:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings,
The Rise of the Witch-king"

I updated RotWK to 2.01 after downloading BotTA also I once after downloading BotTA uninstalled RotWK and reinstalled it.

The problem is that though I've edited target boxes as mentioned above when ever I click on any of the shortcuts it starts the RotWK not BotTA. first time I'm I had installed BotTA it worked when I clicked on RotWK icon after editing the Target boxes of both shortcuts. Please tell me what to do.

So I can download Edain an disable it through the Edain switcher? BotTA has just finished downloading!!:-)

If it works with Edain how?

Hi it worked once I got the uninstaller for Heroes of AL-Samah. Thanks for all your help I'll tell you any suggestions or bugs related to your mod. One last thing does your mod work ok with Edain also installed? Again many many thanks MorguLord.

Right I'll try the uninstaller for Heroes of Alsamah. Thanks for your help. I'll tell u what happens.

Also let Cirdan after dying be revived like normal hero or when summoned again at the same level as he had been before dying

Some bugs I got when I installed the mod 1st time were:-
1)Gandalf reviving at Rohan citadel.
2)when I order the Rohan spearmen into their special formation I can't move them and neither can I disable the
formation.
3)when I give the forged blades to the Rohan spearmen it is like a black box with a glow painted on it
Some suggestions:-1)instead of having to revive Gandalf after the Balrog collapses on him, have Gandalf remain fallen for around half a minute on the field when he can neither attack or be attacked and then after that time let him get up as Gandalf the white.
I don't know what the bug fix has corrected as I never downloaded it.

Oh I forgot to tell I downloaded Heroes of Alsamah mod too and then deleted its files instead of uninstalling them, do you think that that could cause a problem and will using the uninstaller now help.
I know how to install the mod managed once.:-)
What do you mean "find some other installation of the game".

Hi MorguLord I'm not sure where I should ask this but as I want to install your mod I'm asking here. I used to have Rotwk installed, then I installed your mod and then RJ-Rotwk. First I couldn't get your mod to work(posted here also but then I managed). When I installed Rj I couldn't get Rj mod to work so I tried uninstalling the game then when I tried reinstalling the game it stops at 53% it says where it tells what is being installed cs25 something and gets stuck there for 30 mins and then closes please help I'm stuck ;-(. Really want to play your mod again. Only tried the good factions.:-)
Also I didn't know how to uninstall the two mods so I deleted the folders.
Thanks

Hi was just viewing features and looked at olog-hai could you change "white hand" with "the eye" or "barad-dur" as Isengard had no trolls in either "The Siege of Helms Deep" or "The Defense of Isengard".

Hi it is giving me an error when I do single player.
The steps I took to install are:- 1) I copied all the contents of my bfme 2 folder to a new folder named 'RC Mod'
2) I downloaded Rc mod from moddb and after it was done I ran the installer and installed It.
The folder in which I installed RC mod is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Rc mod\"
The folder in which i installed Bfme 2 is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\The Battle for Middle Earth (tm) II"

Hi, is create-a-character system for 2.00 Alpha version or not. Thanks

Hi, I wanted to ask the Edain team if u could make a option to play historical battles such as in Total War games like the siege of Helm's Deep, Siege of Minas Tirith, Assault on the Blackgate
Or if u could at least get the AI to attack properly. Such as when I'm defending Helm's Deep they never try attacking with mines or ladders they just come with battering ram that too once in 45 mins or something like that. Thanks.

Not as in both are working together but rather like not wanting to play BotTA and switching to Edain or the reverse. :-)
Because if that doesn't happen then I will just have to wait for eng version of Edain as I know I will not enjoy it till then.
