[en] Support Edain Demo 4.0

[Elite KryPtik]

Well I'm really doubtful that this is the source of the issue, but here you go anyways. I uninstalled Edain and 2.02, here's the folder afterwards.

[Turin Turumbar]

First of: Were are you Edain files? Did you uninstall it?
Second: __lobbymusicminimod is propably the cause the crash.

[Elite KryPtik]

Yeah I had uninstalled Edain as well, I just uninstalled ROTWK and deleted the folder, did a new install from scratch without 2.02 and im now installing edain. Once I get it updated ill try running it and see what happens, ill let you know when its done in a little bit.

EDIT: Damn me for a fool, you're right! That's REALLY weird, especially considering it worked fine for me with 2.02 at first. I'm gonna do some fiddling and try to get it working with 2.02 on my PC, because I only play 2.02 when I do play vanilla ROTWK. Maybe now that we have identified the source of the issue you guys can try and do something to make it compatible? Thanks for the help Turin, I'll get sodoras fixed up next time I talk to him. 

EDIT 2: Got it working with 2.02, just had to delete 3 files associated with the lobby music mod that comes with 2.02. And of course you have to disable 2.02 while running the mod.

There removed the triple post, my bad.

Please use the edit function of our forum, there is no need for triple or double posts.

We are not planing to add official support for 2.02 or other fan made patches, we are going to stick with 2.01 since it is the official one.

GAME CRASH:

BFME2 - patch 1.06
WitchKing - patch 2.01

I always encounter this game crash. I have tried reinstalling couple times and still same crash at the exact moment.

While playing skirmish I will receive a game pop up saying "Troops from our fiefdoms have reached the battlefield!" and immediately game crashes with message:

"\game.dat    This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information."



Please fix let me know if it is a bug and will be fixed. Otherwise there is no way to finish a battle! I always encounter that message and game crashes. Thanks.

Hi
I have recently installed your game and I have a couple of questions about it.
First how do I change the German text to English?
Also I have a similar problem to others in that when I try and play a skirmish it crashes however when looking at how you said to solve I was confused as I can't find the options folder.
Cheers

Click on the Edain Mod Icon on your desktop. That should open the Launcher. You can change the language there and fix your error.

[BFME2player]

Thanks for replying.
I don't have a desktop icon for the mod, I have to click on the ROTWK game icon to get onto the mod.

[Turin Turumbar]

The installer should have created an desktop icon. You can also run "Edain_Mod_Launcher.exe" in your RotWK folder, same result.

Thank you for your help

EDIT: I have a problem as I played it for a bit and then it crashed.
I loaded it back up and it said "exception message the system cannot find the file specified
and then said to report it and what I did beforehand on here.

Hi everyone, Edain mod demo is amazing!

It works on my computer, but in my friends computer, yes it launches, but when choosing a skirmish or war in the ring menu, it crashes. What files I should check,  to remove this problem?

Thank you for helping, I'd like to play multiplayer match with him 

[TiberiusOgden]

when choosing a skirmish or war in the ring menu, it crashes.

Hi.   ... Some necromantic power around here.
Has he ever tried solution number one?

1. The game crashes when I click Skirmish, War of the Ring or Network in the main menu.

This problem occurs if you had last selected a custom hero or a faction that no longer exists in the Edain 4.0 Demo before you installed the demo. There are three possible ways to fix it:

1. Open the launcher, go into the "Options & Tools" menu and click "Fix Non-Starting Games".
2. Manually delete the folder "My The Lord of the Rings, The Rise of the Witch-king Files".
3. Disable the mod through the launcher and start the regular game. Delete all custom heroes. Then enter Skirmish and select Mordor as a faction. Enter the War of the Ring mode and select Mordor there as well. Quit the game and reactivate the mod.

[MacGyver27]

What about the ERROR I posted?? Nobody knows anything? Was it even registered?

Thanks!
