once you download the .rar file, you need to extract it to the C:\ drive. it shouldnt go into any other folder, just the root directory of the C:\ drive.
then you just need to move the shortcut that was in the .rar file (should be right next to the actual mod folder in your C:\ drive) to wherever you want it

now if your game isnt installed in the default directory (C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king) then you will need to right click on the shortcut that you moved from the C:\ drive and go to properties
once in properties, go to the shortcut tab
from here you will need to change the 'Target' line to read: "Directory of your game\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod "C:\RJ_RotWK"
the 'Start in' line will also need to be changed to read: "Directory of your game"

you were little vague, so i hope this covers the issues you were having.

thanks dalf32 and another question the rar file must installed where in the rise of the wicht-king or in another c\drive?
when i start the mod by the mod shotcut the game is similar to the orignal game and there aren't no new factions, no new campaign and no new maps.
where i must put the mod folder? in the in the original game folder or i must subscribe the file of the mod with the original game files?
hello

Hi,

I'm having issues too. Ive done exactly as you have said, the game starts to load then says "Cannot locate the DVD rom", which is in the drive and works normally through the EA shortcut...

My shorcut reads

Target - "F:\EA Games\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod "C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06"

Start in - "F:\EA Games\Electronic Arts\The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king"

Can you, or any one help?

Well maybe you should try uninstall the game and install it again on C:\Program Files...

and only put it on drive C:

it should be work perfectly. :evgr:

Ok, I was just trying to find another way around that, as I put both ROTWK and BRME2 on my external hard drive to save space on my laptop. Weirdly, all the game data saved to the F drive, except the application data stuff which stayed in the C drive.

Thanks for your help, I guess I have no choice but to stick it back on the C drive then?

Are you patched to 1.1? What other mods do you have installed?
