Als die nog afgemaakt worden dan zijn ze in n andere mod.

Hey, i've just installed this mod, and overall it looks great.

However, there was one thing that struck me about it: A slight lack of professionality.

I saw your past army, the Ridder Clan, and well, please do not bring them back For me, they completely ruin the feeling of Middle Earth. Another thing that I found did this was the snowman that starts next to your HQ, again it ruins the feel.
Additionally, I think that your logo and main screen could do with a revamp. They look a bit amateur, and, from your skins ect, I know you guys are NOT amateurs. Finally, I think that the tower guards should be made the most elite Gondorian unit, as they were the ones who guarded the fountain and were hand picked.


In general, though, I was very impressed by your textures, skins and the revamp of the create-a-hero.


Also, why don't you make this mod based on ROTWK? It would GREATLY improve the mod, it would include Angmar, far more maps and more armour/weapons for create-a-hero.


Great mod, and I hope you take my comments into account, and sorry if they seem a bit harsh. (Especially the snowman, that really needs to be sorted).

Thanks, deathteam15.

snowman is a joke, I never expected it to like stay visible, but since they are in the "alpha" dont mind those, same case with the logo, we workin on that
Ridder Clan is not coming back. If anything from it at all, it will be used for Arnor.
The CAH have quite a few things from ROTWK already, we might add angmar, the mod is somewhat based on ROTWK, but most likely in a way which is... well not that easy to explain
The maps, they are all in the rc mod, but since its alpha and ive not gotten around to adding bfme 1 support for most of them, they are not in the release
If you find the CAH revamp cool... just wait and see what I work on when i have a little bit of time...
I appreciate your honesty, and thanks for the "review" !

[Alphacpt]

Ahhh you've lightened my spirits with such a friendly answer! But honestly, yout textures are the best i've ever seen in any BFME, they're absoloutly outstanding!

And that sounds great, can't wait for the next release! To be honest I don't really mind Angmar not being in, I would rather you speand time on other things (like getting war of the ring working and Arnor ). The only thing I really care about is the maps.
Good luck, and don't work too hard!

They lack professionalism because everyone in this community are amateurs.

How so?
He's not getting paid to do it so he's still amateur.
I'm actually on my way to being pro soon too.

[Alphacpt]

Alright, I was only joking.

Oh and another suggestion: Some heroes could do with a few more abilities, like Boromir for example, who only has three. After he has unlocked his last ability, levelling him up isn't any where near as satisfying. I know he originally had three, bet it's much better with more.

[Ridder Geel]

Well we have not gotten around to that yet

[Alphacpt]

So what did you think to the tower guard idea? Also i've been having some problems. The second I start a game in a custom map I am automatically defeated, and in a non-custom map this happens after about 2 minutes.
Thanks

[Ridder Geel]

People have had the 2-3 minute things before, the less than a minute death is because your custom maps are not compatible with our BFME 1 mode system.

So is the 2-3 minutes thing just to do with the Alpha version of the mod? So even if I don't play the custom maps in BFME 1 mode it still crashes?

[Ridder Geel]

Ok a better question, does this happen with the "original" RC Mod maps? or not?
If the RC Mod maps work fine, then the answer to your question is, yes, it still does auto defeat.
If the RC Mod's maps do not work fine I will search for the solution for you.

[Alphacpt]

Sorry, I didn't quite understand your post haha Well I played the original Umbar map, and it crashed after about 2 minutes (with BFME 1 mode off). The other map was one made by me, which crashed straight away, even though I had unticked the BFME 1 mode.

Thanks

[Ridder Geel]

Well if with crash you mean that you get "defeated" this is the solution:

--find the support folder in the RC Mod folder and run the RCModRegistrator.exe.
--Copy the game2.dat from your BFME 2 game to the RC Mod install directory.
--If this does not work reenter the correct serial using the "The Battle for Middle-earth II - RC Mod_code.exe"
--If this does not work, Post in detail what you did so we can resolve this.

You need to enter your BFME 2 serial, just for clarification.

[Ridder Geel]

I shall take a look at that later... I'm workin on the scout spamming issue at the moment

[Alphacpt]

Aha alright Umm and another suggestion: The Gondor soldiers, pikemen and archers could do with a bit of variation between their faces. ;)And I was wondering if there's any way of making my maps work with the RC mod, even without BFME1 mode activated?

Custom maps? How custom? Send them to me, and i will see what i can do (I'm quite certain i can make them RC Mod compatible.) Did you make these maps yourself? If so perhaps if they are nice we can officially include them in the RC Mod?
