The Edain mod team doesnt use 2.02 because it isnt an official patch in their words, likely because certain files get overwrited so the mod couldnt run properly, at least it is an easy switch between patches 2.01 and 2.02
i have the digital download for rotwk and bfme 2 , and when i try to install AOTR , i get something asking for a disk and i cant download this. is it possible to download with a digital version?
Yes there are other files that you are required to keep, and use from time to time to make a proxy disk, I use it all of the time, if you search for it online you will find it, but if youre planning on playing aotr once you have sorted it you shouldnt need to use it again
Please help, every time I try to load a saved skirmish game it says: (Error loading c/users/my username/appdata/my lord of the rings/save) or another error (exception in exception handler) what does this mean? Please help guys
I've tried everything but I'm still getting this error... "It seems you do not have RotWK patch 2.02 v8.01 enabled, please install or enable it and ty again" I have the v8.01 enabled, I've looked for every tutorial available and I still cant get it working. Could you help bro?
It could be possible you have an outdated version of the patch, it is best to look from the aotr moddb page, find the correct patch and install everything using the run as administrator option as that could cause a problem, if it still isnt working reply to this message
Hi! Do you know why that when I play Aotr that the screen is very “thin” the whole screen is squashed? Do I need to reinstall with 4:3 instead of widescreen?
That is a very odd problem, I have never heard of the happening before, I recommend going to the age of the ring discord and asking in the support page, they should have an answer for you
@@Naodline2627 Thanks for answering me. I could have played before rise of the witch king, But now that I have downloaded it none of it opens anymore, is that not the reason why nothing is visible? what do you think?
@@gogaqartvelishvili3457 I honestly am not sure, I have never seen this bug happen to me, it is possible a file you needed for installing age of the ring and/or the rotwk patch was sent to the wrong location or was overwritten, when problems like this happen to me I normally uninstall rotwk and any patches/mods and start again, it is annoying but sometimes it just has to be done

Hey, I was wondering if anyone could help me. I've downloaded everything I need, followed this video (very helpful by the way). I've opened up Rotwk, it says it's at 2.02 but when I try to install AotR, it says I don't have 2.02 installed. Any ideas?

If the game crashes on the loading screen after your click the icon it is because you need rotwk patch 2.02. If the game crashes just as you click play game in the skirmish menu, you need to go into %appdata% and into the rotwk file in there, and delete every file except for the options text file and the maps folder. Otherwise I do not know what could be causing the crash, the best place to go to for fixing problems like this is to go onto the aotr discord

@@Naodline2627 so is uninstalling the whole game and install it again or just the 2.02 files in order to play edain? Cuz I'm downloading and installing edain mod cuz I like to play different mods to see which I like and enjoy better
@@koreancowboy42 all you need to do is uninstall 2.02, and if you wanna switch back, disable the edain mod through the menu they give and reinstall 2.02.

Hey guys someone help me please...!! I have extracted both the files from Aotr_Version 5.01 in a same folder and i have extracted aotr 2nd zip folder in it also... Have i done correctly..?? But in installation it says unzip the aotr 2nd zip file on Aotr_version inside it.. I am confuse please help me...
That is because the file for AOTR has changed, this is a rather old video, which has an outdated AOTR patch, I plan in the future to remake these videos to prevent further confusion
@@Naodline2627 Its not just this file, basically everything i try has one problem or another.

@@gummymunch8858 best thing to do is uninstall everything cleanly, dont just delete files, make sure your using the recommended 2.02 patch and the correct aotr installer, and run as administrator, some people think it isn't important, but when working with mods it is important
@@Naodline2627Okay thanks. But a problem I am worring about is whether I have to use the same version of the 2.02 installer. You have v7, I am forced to use v8. I've tried finding out how to download the correct 2.02 installer but there's no option to find other versions.
@@Naodline2627 Well seems like I already had 2.02 v8.0.0 but I using v8.0.1. Is there something more I need for AOTR? And for the patch I go with 1.00 or 1.06 or 1.09 sometimes. But neither of them works.

i can't seem to switch properly to 8.01 rotw
even tho i have the patch switcher, so it doesnt let me install it.
Keep in mind this a very old vid, there is a new version you need to get that might work more effectively, I havent had to change it in a while myself
what the hell guys. can't you just make these mods on the same patch? i want Edain and AOTR at the same time on my PC but i can;t have em.

You could always install the game twice. I have rotwk installed like 5 times on my pc lol
I did third time
I have no mods downloaded, the version of the game at 2.02 and BFMH2 at 1.06 and I get an error
You need bfme2 to be at version 1.08 to run Age of the ring if I'm not mistaken

it wont work for me game crashes i have rise of the witch king and version 2.02 v8 and well wont work
Have you checked the AOTR install page, things may have changed since I brought this video out
@@Naodline2627 I think its because people get the special edition for a free download and somehow it messes with it
@@jonathanz.9675 ah okay good to know, thanks
When I click on it, it says “you must run the game from its install directory”
