So I followed the instructions to a T with downloading and patching (several times) BFME1 and I remembered how to go in and change command point limit and such from years ago in the INI.big file, I also used to change the price of evil siege cata's and balista's because theyre annoying af. When I go to do it this time around, the game literally doesnt start and it says what it says in the screenshot im going to post. The game works if I don't edit these files, so i looked online to see if things somehow changed and turns out they haven't??

That seems like the basic debugger telling you something is wrong

Try

1. Re-installing the game and running the normal game , remove any and all previous MOD files , the game should run .

2. Try creating a MOD , using the -MOD command in the shortcut , but do not modify anything , so the game runs your MOD file , but is still original values 

3. Try slowly changing a value and see if it changes in game , if yes then save and add new stuff slowing , testing every time and keeping back-ups

 

Basically you have to start from scratch until you figure out what is wrong .

It could be as simple as the - MOD command was not set-up properly 

 

Always use the -Mod command , which requires a BIG file in the MyBattleforMiddleEarthfiles directory , and the shortcut to allow to run this file 

Never modify original game INI.big , it’s not recommended 

 

Sometimes anything can cause a debug error , wrong code in wrong place , a missing or extra End etc.

Hi,
So did you change the game's INI.big directly or did you set up a mod?
