When i try to play the Kings of the West v 1.1 Mod, it stops me. It says that there's a problem with the Data/INI/Weapons.ini for Gamling. How can i fix this?

[Bereneth Túrien]

Are you patched to 1.03?

Hi there. I have downloaded Kings of the West mode and since than
I have some difficulty playing it at all. I have previously installed the
Elven Aliance and Shadows of the Evil mod and they used to work
out fine I mean I could play both mod (not at the same time). But since
I downloaded the KOTW mod I can't play any mod except the vanilla
game.

I checked the properties of the the KOTW icon on my desktop and is as follows:
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Battle for Middle-earth ™\lotrbfme.exe" -mod KotWMod.big
Start is in:
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Battle for Middle-earth ™"
Big file is in my Batle for Midle Earth files in Document and settings/ Application Data

I deleted the skirmish profile and saved games files.

Should i move any of the other mods big files?

What should i do?

I uploaded some image of the property for this mod icon and hope that it could be of some help to you.

Thanks in advance to your replies.

Hello,

Can you play the mod or not?
Maybe you should try to move the other .big files from other mods out of your "My Battle for... files" folder?
If the problems still ocure then, try to reinstal the game.

Do you get any sort of error when you try to play the modded game?

Yes, that's normal. Just leave it. The shortcut points to the BFME executable which is in Program Files

I deleted the skirmish profile and saved games files.

Make sure the KotWMod.big is in %appdata%\My Battle for Middle-Earth Files. If it is and your shortcut is configured normally, it should work fine.

Yes I do. I moved the other big files as Ellessar suggested and the game did loaded but if i want
to play the campaign or skirmish game it just crashes with a dialog vindow exeptional access violaton.
Then it goes further in explaining that it doesn't recognize any mod. I will upload some images to support
what i have written above.

update to this whenever I try to create a skirmish profile the game crashes.

it is there as you described above.

I hope that you can figure out what is wrong because it makes no sence to me.
Thanks in advance for yours replies.

Hmm.. Patched to 1.03? You don't have a modified version of the game?

If you have patched to 1.03 and you don't have a modified version and it still doesn't work, maybe then you should try reinstalling the game, patch to 1.03 and run the mod then.

Hi Elessar I reinstalled the game and patched it to 1.03 and I am able to play the mod at last.
I also played the modded game as Isengard, Rohan and Mordor and so far I like it. i haven't
played the gondor yet but I guess he is allocated to Gondor. I like the Rohan, the Minas Morgul
effect is not bad at all, Isengard is nicely updated thanks for you time spent on working on this
mod and for your patience with explanations and useful tips. Thanks to all that answered and
have a nice day.

Does your game also crash when you play the vannila version? Maybe install it on another place? Not your default (C:/Program Files/Electronic Arts/.. but C:/Program Files/Lord of the Rings for example?

Bye

Hello,

Did you patched your game to 1.03? Do you have the english version installed? You don't use a crack or something else that modified your game?

- Elessar

[Elessar Ancalímon]

Hello,

I also have 2 1.03 files. So, You are sure, you don't have a crack? You didn't change the game files? You don't have some mod file in your game directory?

Try to reinstall your game, install it in english, patch to 1.03, install the mod
