so literally nothing happens? the normal game doesnt start, there's no error message displayed, nothing like that?

the vanilla game worked for you right?

alright, i think i have an idea:
check your game folder to see if the game executable has the same name, i.e. if it is called 'lotrbfme2ep1.exe'
if it does have the same name, then i would suggest making a copy of your normal game shortcut and simply adding '-mod "C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06"' to the end of the target line.

good luck!

And check the install paths :) I believe you get an error because you've installed a non-english version of the game, so the paths are different. To correct this, just follow Dalf's instructions or install the English version of the game.
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

extract the mod directly to the C:\ drive, dont put it in another folder or anything first.

I found probably reason of errors, some sites have this mod packed in doubled catalogues f.e C:\rj_rotwk_1_06\rj_rotwk_1_06 if it's like that just unpack mod to one folder,or change the target line. Size of letters also matters - just check every differents between your names of folder and all differences between instructions of installation and that what u can find after unpacking RJmod.
Sorry for my english.:p

Hi i have the same problem.
I have installed the mod on this path C:\Program Files\Aufstieg des Hexenkönigs\RJ_RotWK_1_06(yes im german :p )
But the mod is not running just the game with the addon.
What have i done wrong?
And where i can find the shortcut?
Sorry for my very bad english. :)

You must not instal it on that path. When downloaded take the RJ_ROTWK_1_06 folder and extract it directly to you c drive. It should be C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06. After that just run the RJ-ROTWK shortcut. An other way to create a shorcut is to copy youre main ROTWK shortcut and past it to your desktop. Then right-click on the new shortcut. Press properties. You see 2 lines where you can fill in the path. In English it is Target and Start in. You must go to target and after the end you press space then fills in -mod. after that another space. Than you fill in this: C:\RJ_R0tWK_1_06. Youre target line should look like this:

"C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Rise of the Witch-king\lotrbfme2ep1.exe" -mod C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06

IN the case of guest Durin youre shortcut should look different because it is in german. But you do the same, after the target line put this: -mod C:\RJ_RotWK_1_06

I hope this helps you

BTW: Great mod :)

Ah thanks for the tip, but is it normal for the evil campaign
no tasks are present? And include the 2 campaigns so each
only 2 missions? But otherwise a class-mod.
What I wanted to ask you, there is the mod translated also into German?
Thanks again for the answer is dan the last one. :p

By me the evil campain has no tasks too and there are only 2 levels because this is a beta not a finished. They are working on the mod at the moment (i hope) :p

the full campaign (what has been done so far at least) is not accessible from the normal campaign menu. instead you need to go to the war of the ring and select the RJ Scenario. make sure your faction is gondor and enjoy!

THANK YOU i finally got it to work, amazing!!! :shiftee2:


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.

:shiftee2:

That would be much of a task. :D
But if you're using the german version of the game, your audio stuff should still be in german.
