Hello knightsatwar, I just tested your mod and got the instant defeat after a couple of minutes.
I did a clean install of BFME, patched to 1.03, installed your mod, and emulated a miniiso to bypass the CD-check.I'd be happy to suppy any info necessary, your mod seems really fun and I can't wait to try it out
well, it turns out just replacing the LOTRBFMe.dat with the original one fixed it!
anyway, another thing I found out: in the campaign, on the first rohan mission, I wasn't able to build any outposts. I clicked build and it would appear as if building for a couple of seconds, but immediatly returning to the flags.
