Have you done taken out the application data?
I know you asked where it was.
It should be here
C:\Documents and Settings\(Your Name)\Application Data\My The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king Files
Take that folder out then try it. If you want your saved data, quit the game, go find the application data and delete the one the game made for you and stick your own application data back in.
If this doesn't work, you should respond back.

Hi guys,
After browsing numerous posts I decided to post about this error anyway, since I don't think there is a solution known to my problem (yet). I too get the game.dat error, only I only get those after defeating my second (brutal) enemy.
I play with the patch and the latest RJ version, did the application data removal and still encountered the error.
I do not know if the error always occurs after defeating the second brutal enemy, since I don't have the time nor the energy/patience to test all possible combinations (race-enemy/allies-difficulty). Most frequently I play with the elves against mordor; the error occurs on various maps and with or without allies. I did not test gondor vs. 2nd brutal mordor enemy for instance.
Anyway, I hope you can help me. Here are the error log details:
AppName: game.dat AppVer: 2.1.2614.37001 ModName: game.dat
ModVer: 2.1.2614.37001 Offset: 005b6318
I have a more detailed error log on request.
Thanks in advance!
UT
P.S> Great mod btw

I have an error involving "Upgrade_HaradBasicTraining, which is not an upgrade". It's in line 151 of game.dat, apparently, but I can't find it and I'm getting really frustrated because it worked before. What's the problem there?
I think that it may have something to do with me applying BFME II patch 1.06, but why would that cause problems with RotWk? Nonetheless it worked fine before I did that, so I'm thinking that might be the root of the problem. Advice, please.
All right, updating this again: the vanilla version doesn't work either, for the reason that "Upgrade_GondorArcherFireArrows" is not an upgrade. Grr... one thing after another...
Regards, IRS

Careful. This link is DANGEROUS. Do NOT click it. This one, however, is fine.

All right, I reinstalled the game and it's still having troubles... 
Any idea why that would be?

Wow, this topic is an antique...
Are you getting a game.dat error online or offline? If it's online, then if you have any RJ stuff, it may be giving you a different version of game. That happened to me with a different mod, even though I disabled it. If it's an offline game.dat, then ya' got a seperate directory interfearing with your BFME directory. Could be 2 different RJ mod versions doing somethin' nasty to your game version... In general terms, I have no idea how to solve your problem exacly, just use serch to find any paths leading to your game. Only thing I can think of if ya' getting the usual error.

Offline. My internet is relatively terrible, and I usually play single-player anyway. Yeah, weird, I know... Do you know why that might be?

Yea, must be multiple things trying to activate at once that shouldn't be activated together. Have you updated your RJ mod recently? Sometimes old files can come back to screw you over.

I deleted all of my WoA files awhile ago to play RJ... I'm sure that I have the latest version of RJ, and no other, because it worked once.

That hapened to me once, are you sure you have the latest version of ROTWK?
Also, open your main directory and look if any WoA files are there. This was it when I got the same game.dat.

It worked before, and I haven't screwed up the files since then apart from repatching BFME II to play SEE. 
Now it seems that only one can survive. Should I uninstall both of them at the same time, reinstall, repatch, etc? Or is it something deeper, more sinister, more EVIL??? 
Anyway, I await your response.

There is no logical reason why the two shouldn't work...but yeah, if you have the patience, reinstall everything

I also get a game.dat error when starting a WOTR campaign with one of the new factions selected. I haven't read all the documentation yet, but I am guessing the new factions aren't meant for WOTR campaign use? (Seem to work in skirmish, though) Campaign seems to run fine with only 'original' factions selected.
The mod looks very good, so far.
I've been looking for some mods to change the game around a bit. Out of curiosity, does this or any other ROTWK mod get rid of AI forfeting?
Edit to add: Finished an excelletn Gondor vs. Isengard battle, and I had the pleasure of hunting them down to the last orc. I hate when they forfeit.

You are correct, the new factions don't really work in wotr yet, but we're working on it.
Actually...Rohan might work in your beta, and Arnor too. I forget when rob added them...

They work in RJ maps... just not the others.

Its somthing to due with the fact the game was made so badly they didnt add a widescreen feature so the game gets confused when it opens up.
