You need to have the original 1.06 patch for BFME2. This can be found HERE.
You should also make sure that you don't have any mods installed directly in your BFME2 installation folder, or any leftovers from said mods.
Any modding you may have done yourself in there can also make the game crash.

The Installer is saying I don't have patch 1.06, when I did patch my game, but I did it again just in case but it is still saying I don't have 1.06.

[Lauri]

Hm, have you got the english version of the game?

edit: here is a link to the correct patch.

I think your installer is broken, cause mine says the samething. I do have 1.06 english I tried downloading the patch you gave me still don't work.

It seems the installer only works on Windows 7.

I doubt that I have windows 7 32bit.

I'll just pm u the script i have, u do with it whatever u wish Nice release btw

[Lauri]

Already did it, so no need Thanks for the offer though, without it I never would've thought it out!

So it begins.

Simply download THIS FILE, and run it. After it's complete you should have no troubles with the main installer of the mod! It's an exe that quickly writes the Registry paths that the main Installer looks for, but can't find on any other system than Windows 7 64bit. So sorry for the inconvenience.

Your program is not working right Lauri I ran it and I still get the same error

[Mathijs]

Because there are some issues still with the installer, I have made a temporary upload of the mod's .BIG file.

Here you go.

Install guide:

1) Place TPW.big in "My Battle for Middle-earth™ II Files".
2) Create a second shortcut from your original BFMEII desktop shortcut.
3) Right-click the new shortcut, go to the Properties tab, at the Target field, add " -mod TPW.big". For example, this is mine: "C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Battle for Middle-earth ™ II\lotrbfme2.exe" -mod TPW.big

This should work fine until Lauri fixes the installer. When he does, I suggest deleting TPW.big and your shortcut and download the installer.

Good luck.

Thank you so much for taking care of this Matias I'm still wondering what the hell is wrong

[ArronSwan]

Thank you for making the Winrar, Matias. I tested it out and I noticed that When you tell the Ekdromoi to charge the enemy, they just stand there and do nothing. And the Create a Hero after he dies just stands there for about 5 seconds and then dies. These is the only things I noticed.
