At last... we've finished... Angband. We still have at least two more factions to do xD.
Well, that's the link:

LINK

Now I'm going to update the website.

For those who don't know, the four ages is a total conversion for BFME 2 based on the first age, on the book of the Silmarilion.
Now you only can play with Angband against Men, elves and dwarves but I'll change it asap.
Each faction has minifactions(only angband has them in this beta anyway) and you can build very powerful units that will help you in the battle.
Also I've made a system (based with morgoth's(not me) one in the epic mt map) where you can incline the camera.
Finally, I made big walls for angband where units and catapults can walk on them.

I hope you'll enjoy it. :lol:

PS: Can you please post it in the next mod update? Thanks!

The installer installed to the wrong directory for me (blablabla...BFME2 rather than blablabla...BFMEII ;)).

It's a very nice mod though, the new artwork looks great :p

Got it to work, dont really know how though. ;)

Gonna play it now!

EDIT: I noticed I wasn't credited in the readme, no big deal because there's only about 2 skins of mine in there, but still.

Oh I beg your pardon... I didn't put you in the credits because your skins of feanor and the sindar elf weren't "playable" yet. Anyway, I'm sorry. ;)
Can you please tell me where does the installer puts it?? I'll try to fix it. Also, maybe it installs it in a wrong "battle for middle earth 2 files" because I don't know the real name...

If its going the the BFME II Application Data, then:

C:\Documents and Settings\Matt\Application Data\My Battle for Middle-earth™ II Files

%appdata% - other way to get to App Data

%appdata%/My Battle for Middle-earth™ II Files

this can apparently be used too

It installed it to:

C:\Documents and Settings\zimoo\Application Data\My Battle for Middle-Earth™ 2 Files

It should have installed it to:

C:\Documents and Settings\zimoo\Application Data\My Battle for Middle-earth™ II Files

Umm. Morgoth, could you not be so amazing at modding? Thanks :dry:

I love the binding on the dragons :huh:

I thought the vampires would be very different, but they were still fun to play with :p

And are the Easterlings supposed to be sooo freaking fast after the boots upgrade? They were running across the map in 3 seconds and over mountains :)

AMAZING MOD

Amazing mod! Really really fun! :p
Still, my BFME2 sucks, but since I enjoyed the game so much, I save while I play... so I'm gonna continue today with my game yesterday! :p Good thing that it crashed about 30 seconds after I saved the last time :p
Really really great work :) Before I hated Balrogs... now I love them :p
