after playing skirmish in age of the ring, vanilla rotk skirmish is unplayable

23 April 2023 - 04:41 AM

Hello,

 

As of the latest patch, after playing age of the ring adventure maps arthedain, I tried playing vanilla Rotwk 2.02. Every time the game tries to go to the skirmish profile menu, the game crashes and exits.

 

I checked the problem in event viewer and got this message:

 

Faulting application name: game.dat, version: 2.1.2614.37001, time stamp: 0x460da09e
Faulting module name: game.dat, version: 2.1.2614.37001, time stamp: 0x460da09e
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00442e96
Faulting process id: 0x464
Faulting application start time: 0x01d973f6fd8853bc
Faulting application path: G:\MIDDLEEARTH\EP1\game.dat
Faulting module path: G:\MIDDLEEARTH\EP1\game.dat

 

This did not occur with earlier mods or patches. Any tips for how to fix this?

 

Edit:  Alright... Here's the deal.

 

Any new class hero created for the mod will cause the original  Rotwk 2.02 to crash. If this was covered in the readme, I didn't see it. So store your heroes in a different folder and move them when you want to play age of the ring.  


Possible bug with Heros in Campaign Mission #9 Lothlorien

17 November 2022 - 12:35 AM

I'm having an issue in Lothlorien mission that the heroes when selected have no speech unless they are attacked. I've reinstalled the mod several times, have no other mods installed, and have restarted my computer. Also, the cutscene when Idrial is sent to the marchwardens has a few seconds of repeating animation. Does anyone know what would cause this? My Version is 7.3.1. and my computer is Windows 10 with  a 1650  graphic card. Also, the first area where you can find reinforcements is not a unit  of four sentinels, but four units of one sentinel instead.

 

I'm also using the original dvd version installed from the disc, not a downloaded version.

Edit: A second question is whether there is supposed to be voices during the cutscenes... there is none in this mission.

 

Clarification: The sounds that are missing are the "select" AND "move" audio files for the heroes alone. Other units have their audio without problems. These files are in the audio and sound subfolders where aotr is stored. Originally, the mod was installed without the 1.09 patch, but has since been uninstalled and reinstalled with the patch required. I'm finding similar issues in other campaign missions.
