nice:D

[andrej]

why is readme in german language?

[CIL]

This is what a first release for a mod should be like. Default colors. Great skins with vivid detail (Eldarion's for lots of the Elves by any chance?). There aren't too many of those stupid things where it does something like state the drive and what the thing is. The new CAH class is nice, but one thing that I have never liked about CAH was the fact that the clothes lacked a skin that resembled anything else ingame (being a comment on the stupid E.A. thing and your mod, which does make improvements). One thing I would suggest is making the CAH so that it has parts that cover the entire legs down to the feet.

hi ive just been playing your mod and i think its great what you have done to the elves, but for some reason when i get the ring when i am elves i carnt get it inside the fortress, and say a unit has the ring it cannot board a transport ship just thought it was a bit weird

@andrej

There´s an englisch readme at the main page here, but I uploaded it on a german page because the upload didn´t work here and on that page it will not get deleted after 30 days like rapidshare does

@radical

If you have the ring, you don´t bring it to the fortress, but to the ringhero himself, just select the unit that has the ring and rightclick on the ringhero

@Brokenoath

please tell me what you´ve done, where did you move the folder to

[Elrond99]

Well

I don´t know what´s your problem

I can´t tell you more than what´s in the Readme

Move the folder onto your C: Drive and not C:\Games... only C: and then start the game with the new shortcut, not the one from the original game

If it doesn´t work you have to explain your problem otherwise I can´t help you

I like the unfinished, hidden Rohan and Numenor factions! Especialy for WIP!

[Elrond99]

oh probably these will never get finished, cause Rohan is from an old mod I made and Numenor was planned for the next release, but I don´t I think I´ll add it

[Ring o' Fate]

WHAT?!! NO!!! I was really enjoying the thought of them compleat..........
