I can try. First, create a new install of BFME. Then patch to 1.02 - NOT the latest patch. You can find 1.02 here:
gamewatcher.com/downloads/the-lord-of-the-rings-the-battle-for-middle-earth-download/patch-1-02-english--5
After that, follow the author's instructions.
If you are on windows 10 and the game gives you an access exception error, then:
navigate to c -> users -> <your name> -> AppData -> Roaming -> My Battle for Middle Earth Files
Create a new text document, then open it up in notepad
Paste the next block of text into the document, then save it as "options.ini"

That should solve compatibility issues. Good luck!
