And most importantly... THEODEN WAS NEVER AT THE BLACK GATE. Theoden should be dead, end of story.

The campaigns assume everything happens perfectly.

There, that should explain everything ... It's a "What if" scenario.
The plot-line isn't meant to follows the books or the movies. (At least not strictly)

Well, ideas are never worthless. They're always important to someone.

Really though, your idea about an attack on Barad Dur sounds really interesting, and fun, but I doubt it'll ever be in this mod.
Or any other mod that you don't make yourself.

It's kind of a depressing prospect, I know, but most mods don't do requests. Especially not this one.

Especially not this one.

And this one is special in it's "Especially not this one"-ness.

Darth Ben, this is not our mod, not even Rob's. It belongs to Celeglin and Rob is merely finishing it because of the fantastic work that has been done on it. The only ideas that will be used, are balancing issues and tiny ideas on already existing maps. As Ganon already said, it is a depressing prospect, but I personally wouldn't want it any other way.

[Radagast2001]

Ok,so i followed the instruction at the site , but when the troubleshooter wants from me to launch the program(the elven alliance BETA)i launch it,but the version is normal there is no elves faction, and there are no haldir and celeglin in lothlorien army

[Radagast2001]

i have some maps downloaded-Helms Deep New( http://www.the3rdage...em-126?addview ) and The Movie Map Updated (http://www.the3rdage...tem-771?addview) should i delete it?
 

[Mathijs]

Eh, what? 

 

You set compatibility settings for the TEA shortcut and suddenly it turns into the regular game shortcut? 

 

What exactly are you doing?

[Radagast2001]

See the picture under  the number  5 at the site http://support.serif...orted-does.aspx

The instruction on the site you posted led me to launch the program with this settings on the picture

I tried that.

After that it led me to the same window but with windows compatibility mode Windows XP service mode 3 and to run program as administrator.

In the both cases when i click "Start the program" the game starts as usual(as original bfme1) but when i launch TEA from my desktop shortcut its normal(there is elven faction)

p.s. when i launch the movie map in skirmish (player made maps) the loading screen is the same as in campaign.(i can play movie map but not and the campaign)

 

[Mathijs]

Oh god-damnit Microsoft. That's not what I wanted you to do. Troubleshooter? No no.

 

Here, I have time now so I'll be clearer:

 

1) Right click your TEA shortcut.

2) Click 'Properties'.

3) Go to the 'Compatibility' tab.

4) Tick the 'run this program in compatibility mode:' box and select Windows XP SP3.

5) Tick the 'run as administrator' box.

 

See it the campaign works then. 

[Radagast2001]

FAILURE! I don't know i did as you wrote me.Click on Moria-Loading screen only. Maybe my game wont accept the changes?

Is there any way to disable the camera zoom options and remove them from the powers column?

[Kenge2]

Camera zoom icons again, just re-checked the new camera system – when you gain the last Power (Blessings of the Golden Wood), the overhead camera icon disappears from the Powers list. I understand why this extra has been included; to alleviate the head-down-in-the-mud feeling when returning to this game from others with a wider more expansive view. But adding them as icons in the Powers sidebar seems a bit intrusive and a counter-visual experience. Can the new camera system be disabled?
