Man, this game brings back so many memories from my high school years. Thanks for the fixes! I bought the collector's edition again a few years ago and decided to jump back on it today.
Hi, i'm still getting the "cannot locate the CD-ROM " error message when starting the game with the Edain launcher after trying your fix, any idea what might be causing it?
Hey, so I'm getting a crash that I can't find a fix for anywhere, and reinstalling everything didn't help. It says "RemoveModule Draw_EvilHealEffect was not found for RohanRohirrimBannerRider." Please help if you can.
My Game sometimes just closes? Without error message or something it just quits. Sometimes when I press ESC in a cutscene and sometimes without doing anything specific…
I am fortunate to still have the original disks, game-key, and everything for the game. I have recently tried installing the game but am getting the "cannot locate CD-ROM" error. I do not understand why this is happening and scrolling through the video and comments has not helped yet. anyone have any ideas?
Hi! If I'm not mistaken, the newer your OS version the more difficult will it be for your computer to read the discs because the game is so old. Computers nowadays are so fast, that they can't keep up with old games on disc. I suggest however checking out my tutorial on how to install bfme2 for free. The only file you most likely need is the CD-images and just mount them with wincdemu. I'm pretty sure this will help resolve your issue. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need further help, and I'm sorry for the delay!
I can’t seem to access the cd images for rotwk, downloads the zip file but won’t extract at all. Have tried downloading the rotwk newest patch as well but the website keeps failing to download, bfme2 works but I just cannot seem to get rotwk to work
Hi! The fix shown in the video is the only fix for this error. Did you check if the patch for BFME2 was actually switched? Try starting BFME2 and go to "Options -> Settings" and then check the bottom right cornor where it says which patch is enabled. Hope this helps!
@@Rivs. Yes I came across exact same error and followed bmfe2 install instructions only to patch 1.06 then retried the witch king install and it worked. For some reason couldnt switch back from 1.09 in bmfe2 despite patch switcher
@@diogojesus8309 You mean download the game separately? I have the full collection in the one edition, but the only one didn't work correctly is RotWK. I try everything, but nothing worked.
I have the same problem. I download all the collection of BFME. 1 and 2 works perfectly, but the expanion RotWK said that I don't have installed the 2. You fixed the problem?
I have installed the game and created the appdata maps for rotwk since the installation didn't and used the ini file but when mounting designated mini image the game still give me the prompt "insert correct cd"? I can't find the problem causing this since I followed the steps in previous video and even reinstalled several times but appdata map won't install so I suspect it could be the iso but I have the foggiest idea at this point where the error occurs...
Hey @Deepy, When playing offline skirmish matches on ROTWK, the Angmar faction is not producing units or any buildings. Do you know or have any fixes for this issue?
Hi! This usually happens if one of you have modified your files. For example if you have a mod installed, that can cause the issue or if you have created any custom heroes. If you have custom heroes I suggest deleting them and disabling custom heroes in the matchmaking menu.
Unfortunately I have another slight problem: RoWK is working but BFME2 is not working. And at the RoWK the 'War of the ring' is not working , every time I want to start a batttle the whole game crushes. Do you have a solution?
I am having a problem with the hero editor: the game closes after the attribute points without any message. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? (I am playing on 1.09)
Hi, im playing edain mod 4.6 (or 4.6.1 i dont remember, anyway i have the latest version) and today it just stopped working. I dont know why, i literally didnt changed nothing on my pc, it just stopped and i dont know where to look to find something wrong and fix it. Im very very sad
Hey bro, im trying to open BFME2 1.09v2 but i get an error and it says: "PreLandingEmotionAffectsAllies", i can't find the solution anywhere, do you know what to do?
I can play online with the T3A launcher just fine for BFME2 but it keeps saying "could not connect to rise of the witchking online servers". Any idea what the problem could be? I cant seem to figure it out
@@TokagandoFFN Yeah it happened to me on fresh install, the way I fixed it was delete the whole thing and install the game through the "All in One Launcher" that some people made. It's a 3rd party app so it's up to you if you wanna trust them but it worked for me
I have another issue. Game loads perfectly fine. But when I go to play a skirmish game, once the map is done loading and the game is about to start I get sent back to me desktop immediately. No crash error or anything, game just closes out. I've tried EVERYTHING. I really can't seem to think of anything else I can trouble shoot. Been at it for hours. What's the fix? Thanks
@@haluska001 Oh man I haven't played since I posted I forgot. Funny enough the game crossed my mind recently so I'll be playing soonish. I'll lyk if I come across this error again.
Hello, I only have the base game installed for BFME 2. The forstess explodes and I am defeated within 5 minutes of playing. is there a fix as I am strugging to find one specific to this?
Hi @danielwattam546 @kellyroks8497 ! I'm very sorry for the delay! This is due to the cd-key getting corrupted somehow. Simply reinstall the game using a different cd-key and that should fix it. Hope this helps!
Hi! This issue is caused by one or more of you not having the same files installed. You have to make sure that all of you are on the exact same patch(es) and that everyone has disabled or preferably uninstalled other mods except AOTR. The Edain mod for instance can cause some trouble since it's interfering with AOTR. Custom heroes might also cause some trouble. I hope this helps!
Hi there, I still seem to be having the mordor fortress issue despite trying to switch bfme 2 to patch 1.00 or 1.06. Both bfme1 and bfme 2 work fine. Any help would be great
Has anyone had a problem playing on network? (Lan?) I have 2 copies of the same game, one for me, one for my partner, and individually both games work, but we can cannot play together as lan, we get connection time out message. Any idea how to fix that?
Hey, i have installed the original rotwk with v 2.01. However when i try to start it i get the error "INI::load, cannot open 'language.ini'...". Unfortunately my original DVD is not working, so i can't reinstall it. I tried to start it with this guys Version 2.02, but the same error remains. Do you have any idea? @Deepy
Game has detected a mismatch.This means the myltiplayer game has lost synchronization data between the players. it is possible that your oppenent has modified their version of the game) Is there any answer for this problem?
Me and my friend are getting into lotr RotWK and are having this issue right now. Did you manage to resolve this issue? if you did what do we need to do to resolve it?
thanks man, the options.ini fixed it for me, i feared it might be the intel graphics card on my laptop because i had no way to enable a nvidia processor
Hi! That sometimes happens because of the CD-key used for some reason. You'll have to reinstall the game and use a different CD-key, that should fix it. Note that there is NO NEED to completely redownload everything, just press uninstall and install it again. You can just keep everything mounted. I hope this helps! :)
I buddy my problem is only with the expansion of BFME2 that said I don't have the original game installed but I have it and works perfectly. I don't know what get wrong. My version of BFME2 is 1.06 and the expansion is 2.01.
Hi! I'm trying to download the game as you explain in your tutorials, but neither the Key Generator nor the CD Images works. I mean, the link seems to be not in use anymore, or maybe moved to another website or something. Do you know what's wrong, maybe I'm messing something? Thank you so much, I would l o v e to have the opportunity to play this game once again in my life ahahah
FIXED! I copied and pasted the link in the search bar and it downloaded the cd image. I don't have the slightest idea of what is wrong with my pc, but now it works! :D The key generator is still dead and idk why, but i can search for another key somewhere else
@@xXxST4RKYxXx copy and paste the link to the CD image into the "link search bar" of your browser to download it, then search for "key generator BFME" for a key the game asks you for when you install it. All of this worked for me 3 years ago, idk if it's still useful now
I hope this tutorial was helpful! If you need further help join my Discord server! -> discord.com/invite/WwB7AvN Btw if you experience the "Out of sync" error that is most likely because either one of you doesn't have the correct patch installed or it may be because of the custom heroes. To fix this remove the custom heroes and make sure to check that you're on the exact same patch! Mods can also interfere with this. If you have the Edain Mod for instance installed you may have to uninstall it if it's installed in the same ROTWK folder as the one you're using to play online with.

Btw if you experience the "Out of sync" error that is most likely because either one of you doesn't have the correct patch installed or it may be because of the custom heroes. To fix this remove the custom heroes and make sure to check that you're on the exact same patch! Mods can also interfere with this.
