There is a New Patch for the Mod, Version 8.3.1 , you can get it from here:
It is a patch, so you can install it on version 8.0, 8.1, 8.2 OR 8.3
www.moddb.com/mods/the-horse-lords-a-total-modification-for-bfme/downloads/age-of-the-ring-patch-831
at the start of the second mission the game crashes it gives a big list of problems but the first two lines says:
"Attempted to specify a locomotor for object TookArcher without an AIUpdate Block".
Error parsing field 'd' in block 'Object' in file 'maps\MAP GOOD SHADOW OF THE PAST\map.ini', line 1001.
do you know anything about this?
@@diogojesus8309 Hi,
I'm not sure how to solve your issue, but there is a Discord group for it.
On the MoDDB page of the mod you can find the link to join the server and ask your question ;)
@@TQP-Tukolpka I've fixed the problem in their discord there's a solution! Thanks 👍🏼
When in doubt, I just come here for the music
By the way I'm planning to upload the soundtrack of BFME 1 and also 2 :D
Just don't know yet, when I will.
thx my man
There is a thing also I just found,
If you have some performance "issues" you can try turning "hardware accelerated gpu scheduling" on on your PC,
I helped with the performance a bit, when I get some "lagg".
Where do You find this funktion?
Thanks got it working lovely. One problem some of my hero's are shadowey any way I can fix this. Apart from that game works great love playing as the new misty mountains
Hi,
How You mean your heroes are "shadowy"?
great mod, but just cant pick between age of the ring or edian both are just crazy good
It's simple, play both :D
Hello, I have a question, when I install the mod, it gives me the following message "It seems you do not have RoTWk patch 2.02 v9 enabled. Please install or enable it and try again". Do you know what is the problem?
First of all, did you install the 9.0 patch ? :D
Also might need to check for the antivirus and the 9.0 modules to be selected nicely:
czcams.com/video/3XNIBKIxl58/video.html
Hello, i have the same text. but when i try Intro movies disable in the 2.02 launcher, i become a Error message "Could not disable fire data/movies/EALogo. vp6.... try running this launcher with adminstration. But i started it with administator.
I installed it exactly according to the video...
My english is not so good and i will play this gaaaame!!!
Question i did all the steps but at setup to install version 8.0 it says that i don't have 2.02 v9.0.0 enabled when i do?
A 1:57 did you apply these stepps?
You also need to install the patch into your rotwk folder.
And need to apply the listed ones
@@TQP-Tukolpka yeah i did that i think i need to install the other files bfme 2 before doing all of that
@@TQP-Tukolpka the files had a bunch of red X's on them i think i need to fix my other settings
@@TheRestrainedHunger728 hm,
Also try to whitelist 9.0 installer, and after install the launcher,
So it will not trigger antivirus,
Maybe that is causing your problem.
I did everything right and still i get the error "It seems you do not have RotWk patch 2.02 v9 enabled. Please install or enable it and try again." But i do have everything right and working properly, the installation of AotR is the only problem i'm having, no kind of error appeared installing 2.02 or had any issues with Windows Defender, i have disabled what it is told to disable and still nothing...
Hey, these links might help you,
this is for the game :

and this is for the mod :

check them out step by step, hopefully you will be a ble to solve your issue ;)
Hi, first of all, thank you for this tutorial, it helped me a lot.
But I have one question: is it normal for the download of the mod to take this long? After 2 hours, my download progress is at 1 gb and I have highspeed internet.
Oh I'm glad it helped ;)
Hmm, sometime it can differ, buut if it's too long you can still try a different mirror, It should be okey by the way, when the mod was released we broke MoDDB, cause everyone was trying to download the mod :D, but after that it was pretty stable download, maybe there is another mod in the site which got a huge update, sometime it can happen, but as I said if You are not satisfied with the speed, still can try a different mirror ;)
Oh, and don't forget to update the game to 8.1 which is in my pinned message ;)
@@TQP-Tukolpka thank you for the quick respond. I heard from other players, that it took also 4-5 hours for them to download the mod.
I tried another mirror for my region and it is way faster, than the mirror before. Thank you for your help!
I‘m a computer noob, so sorry for these questions ;)
@@AP-tk8ox oh very good,
And don't worry about the questions ;)
its keep tell me base game file not found what to do
Hi , do I need install the 1.06 patch for bfme2 ? I already have the 202_v9 with rotwk
Hello there,
Yes you need, In the video description you will also find a link and guide to install the base games ;)
Followed this guess and I get a "Base game files not found" error when trying to play this...No matter what I try, I can never get this mod to work
Haven't encountered with this one before, but maybe this reddit post can help:
www.reddit.com/r/bfme/comments/1ardi3u/rotwk_issue_base_game_files_not_found/
Also follow the step by step guides which are linked under the video.
@@TQP-Tukolpka deleting patch 2.02 then copying over the 2.02 files fixed the problem 💪
@@pickleinspector5948 and where is the location of it??
how can i install from the beginning i dont have any previous lotrbfme
Hello therre,
Under the video, in the description there is a full step by step guide how to do it :)
hey just wanted to ask if there is a way to uninstall the game? cause i cant find a way to do it
Hey,
It should be in the control panel uninstall programs,
If not, there is an exe in the folder of the game, you can also use that one.
When getting to the final step it says please insert disk 1 and click ok
Hello there you need to switch to 9.0 in the launcher,
Activate the modules listed here :czcams.com/video/3XNIBKIxl58/video.html
Or maybe your ativirus disabled some files, make sure to make the folder of RotWK whitelisted for your antivirus,
Cause sometimes it can be triggered, but that is false positive.
In this case I recommend whitelisting the RotWK folder, and then reinstall 9.0, and then activate the modules I linked above ;)
hello, did you find a solution?
How to get 60fps? games locked to 30
hi idk what can i do when patchswitcher tells me to locate folder or smth
you know how to do this?
AortR 8.0 options menu can not recognise my roaming folder. what sould i do?
Hey,
This is very interesting, do you have that folder or what is the message you get ?
@@TQP-Tukolpka in options menu, there are three options:
-Locate AOTR folder
- Locate Roaming folder
- Locate rotWK folder
I can locate AOTR and rotWK folders but I can't locate Roaming folder even if i know where the folder is.(My The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king Files)
@@galaxymess ah maybe in windows you should turn on the option to see hidden folders cause appdata is hidden by default
@@TQP-Tukolpka I select the folder but options menu can't recognise it. I know it is a hidden folder.
@@galaxymess Then maybe you dont have existing, "My The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king Files" folder yet,
Play one game with 9.0 and then try addint appdata
can i download age of rings mod ?, even i got edain mod or do i need to disable the edain mod then make seperate folders so it cant affected the edain rotwk
Hey, yes you can, but you need to disable edain and have bfme 9.0 in a different folder for Age of the Ring
I found this one one the Edain discord, it might could help you also :)
How to have multiple ROTWK folders to separate mods
Warnings: You will still have to do some folder renaming everytime you want to change the mod you're playing and possibly copy paste some asset.dat files. ROTWK puts the installation path into the registry and therefore can only launch the game from there.
1. Start with a clean copy of ROTWK patch 2.01 (we'll refer to this folder as rotwk) The rotwk folder is where the registry points as the installation path. Before installing any mod, make sure to backup the asset.dat file located in your BFME2 installation folder.
2. copy paste the rotwk folder and rename the copy to something like rotwk - backup
3. Install a mod of your choosing, let's say edain 4.4.1.
Note: In the case of edain, once it is done installing, backup the asset.dat located in the BFME2 installation folder, it is key to having the mod work
4. You now have edain 4.4.1 installed. But let's install another mod, let's say edain 3.8.1
5. Rename the rotwk folder (the one we just installed edain 4.4.1 in) to rotwk - 4.4.1
6. Copy paste rotwk - backup and rename it to rotwk
7. Install edain 3.8.1
Note: Again, once it is installed, make sure to backup the asset.dat located in the BFME2 installation folder
You are now all set to play edain 3.8.1, but lets say you wanna play edain 4.4.1:
1. Rename the rotwk folder (the one we have edain 3.8.1 installed in) to rotwk - 3.8.1
2. Rename the rotwk - 4.4.1 folder to rotwk
3. Copy paste the asset.dat you backed up for 4.4.1 into the BFME2 folder.
You are now all set to play edain 4.4.1. You can repeat those steps endlessly to install any mod that requires installation into the game directory. If the mod changes the BFME2 asset.dat to function, make sure to back it up before switching mods. (edited)
@@TQP-Tukolpka i done it, thank you for the help mate
@@generation2714 ;)
I have done everything even downloaded the 8.1 patch but when i open the age of the ring it opens the rise of the witch king or it just crash immediately
can anyone help?
Did you set up the 9.0 launcher nicely ? As it presented at 11:55 ?
@@TQP-Tukolpka yes disabled everything with minimal music and now it shows the rise of witch king picture and crashes immediately
@@qaisdurra7301 do you have any other mod installed ?
@@TQP-Tukolpka i have played the 7.3
And the elden ring but i have deleted everything and reinstall the lord of the ring from scratch and downloaded the 8.0 i even tried the 7.3 version and it started to do the same thing crashing from the beginning
@@qaisdurra7301 Make sure to follow theses stepps: forums.revora.net/topic/105190-bfme1bfme2rotwk-games-download-installation-guide/
then istall 8.0 as in the video,
then download the 8.1 update as listed here, it is just a small pach so just run and complete it :www.moddb.com/mods/the-horse-lords-a-total-modification-for-bfme/downloads/age-of-the-ring-patch-81
It should work :)
i pressed generate map but cant find it in game(
but i also didnt get successfull message - just nothing? but pressing it 2nd time leads to alert than map with such name already created
i can see folder with new map in documents way however
@@NikitaErmakov So if the mep generator made the map, it placed it in your maps folder at the appdata, it should be accessible through the skirmish menu, with a little hammer icon, and called "custom adv : something" it should be there :)
@@NikitaErmakov if it leads to that message, that it is already created,
It should be there,
Be aware if you already created the map, with another adventure faction, it will not overwrite it,
I'm guessing that might be this is the case,
For example you already played or created the same map with another adventure faction.
You have to delete it, from your rise of the witch king files, map folder, than create the map again with the AotR options, this should work.
I had the same problem before,
Wanted to play a new adventure faction, in a map, which I've already created before.
It has a same name, so i had to delete it from my rise of the witch king files,
And then recreate the map with the AotR options :D
Hi! Does anyone know where i can download BFME 2 and ROTWK, i cant find it anywhere, thanks! 😀
Hey there,
links are in the description ;)
@@TQP-Tukolpka thank you sooo much!
where is located the patch 2.02??
Hey,
Check the video description ;)
Is there a mod launcher instead of overwriting my files
Hi,
The new versions of the installer is designded to update your "old files", and the mod is launching with the shortcut, with a command for a different folder.
The mod is designed like this for easier editing and to not interfeer with the game folder and files I guess.
@@TQP-Tukolpka so no mod launcher that doesn't interfere with the files
Base game cant be found after installation and doesnt start? Any tips?
Hi, do You have BFME II and Rise of the Witch King installed ?
If not, follow the guide, which you will find in the under the video.
Yes but i used a launcher to install both games. Still having the same issue.@@TQP-Tukolpka
@@ZoneZano what launcher ?
Do you have also the patch 2.02 ?
BMFE Launcher 2.22@@TQP-Tukolpka
Yes i have the patch switcher. Seems like the mod is having an issue locating the game on its own.
@@ZoneZano Install the game as the guide shows you in the video description, that is a step by step guide.
Than you should have no problem.
Bro it says that you don't have patch 2.02 v9 and i do everything that you do
Hey,
Maybe you need to double check it step by step,
There are also links in the video how to do it ;)
@@TQP-Tukolpka I checked four times and still it doesn't work
@@abolfazlnoohi6642 I know the feeling bro, I was also sometinmes in the same situation,
but there must be something,
did you also check the patch 9.0 launcher is it on the right patch?
or, are the folders set up nicely ?

Is there a way to add money in the game and how to increase CP 999999
Hello there,
you can do it yes, in the worldbuilder, via scripts, which give a player starting money, and command points.
also if you want more command points you can do it in the skirmish menu and set it to x100.
I hope I could help ;)
@@TQP-Tukolpka thank you
@@dvilbeer1 My pleasure :D
