Next, open the folder “HCEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Electronic Arts\ Electronic Arts\The Battle for Middle-earth II\ergc. In this folder only one file. Open it and change the key to one of the above Antipolitsay. I changed your EALUFML8V8QQ2V8VURLD on 7XGY5HHM5OLGJ82KGDEV. Note that I removed the hyphens. They were checking is the key, everything works.

Attention! Now the editor of this material I am. Can leave your suggestions in the FAQ.


In: For create mods required program FinalBIG. Where you can download it?
A: you can Download the program on our website under cheats. The link to the article - The Lord Of The Rings : The Battle For MIddle-Earth 2: Editor INI.Big.


In: the Enemy has summoned a Barlog! What is the easiest way to defeat him?
A: If you play for the people, against the Barlog need to release Gandalf. If for the elves to hire as quickly as possible a detachment of the Archers of Mirkwood, and to put the modification arrows. If your race - dwarves, against Barlog produced to battle all the heroes + attack the enemy catapults.


B: is it Possible to make the option of hiring a Sauron or Galadriel without a ring?
A: You Can. To do this, open the program FinalBIG_40 the INI file.big (in the game folder) Then find the file data/ini/playertemplate.ini. In this file we find the right faction - Faction PlayerTemplatethe name of the faction. Below this line there is another - BuildableHeroesMP = CreateAHero ... (more went the names of the characters). We need to get to the end of this line to enter MordorSauron or ElvenGaladriel. Save the changes. Now when playing as your chosen race, you can buy Sauron (or Galadriel).
Based on this example, you can add other characters of different races.


Q: games are cheats?
A: No. But in our archive of cheats You will find many useful.


Q: is it Possible to make icons of units colorful (as in the first part)?
A: of Course you can! I advise you to read this stuff - Lord of the Rings: The Battle for Middle-earth 2: the Board (Colored icons on the palantir), and then for example, it is possible to make icons for all the units.


In: the Enemy has hired of the King-Magician. What's the easiest way to defeat him?
About: the King of magic very quickly wins eowyn (shieldmaiden of Rohan). This Easter eggs in the game. Spear eowyn takes more than half my life King-Sorcerer, a melee almost éowyn receives no damage.


Q: I Have installed the addon Under the banner of the King-Magician and I like to add heroes of the campaign. How to do it?
A: It is described a bit above. You need to know is the names of the characters. Here is the list:
GondorEarnur
ArnorArgeleb
ArnorArveleg
ArnorArvedui
ArnorCaptain


Q: is it Possible to add Arnor as a playable race!?
A: Yes! Open INI.big. Find the file data/ini/playertemplate.ini. Then look for the following lines:
PlayerTemplate FactionArnor
Side = No
PlayableSide = No
The word "No" should be replaced by "Yes". Voila! Now you can play as Arnor.


Q: Why is a self-made hero-Troll attacks only one unit?
About: as planned by the developers. The hero-Troll was hitting multiple units at once you need to download and install the official addon Under the banner of the King-Magician.


Q: What creatures can climb over walls?
About: to Climb over walls can:
1:> Goblin infantry
2:> Goblins-archers
3:> Spiders
4:> self-made hero (Man of East)


Q: Where can I download maps, mods, patches to the game?
A: you can Download it all here - http://www.playground.ru/files/lord_of_the_rings_the_battle_for_middle-earth_2/. If you want to add to the archive of your add-ons. They will appear on the site after checking the editor.

Q: Why is my homemade hero lost all the awards?
A: If homemade hero to supply the enemy (the computer), then it automatically drops all the statistics and awards. So the advice is - never bet the enemy heroes who have won awards and good statistics.

Q: How to win a ring hero?
A: In General - as Balrog (see above). But you need to factor in Your allies. Catapults are very effective, but you need to take such hero soldiers, and the best ents or trolls, because they do not fly away when Sauron/Galadriel's shooting. Then the catapult will remain intact. Different spells last levels can also help. And it is better to grab the Ring before it will make an enemy.

Q: Which race is better?
A: All races in anything good. Elves - archers, men - infantry swordsmen and heroes, Mordor - number, Isengard - siege equipment and Uruk-Hai, goblins, trolls and giants, and dragon are not small. But in the original game the most powerful race are the Elves, and if you installed the addon Under the banner of the King-magician, the dwarves. So the choice is yours.

Q: the Game says error game file.dat. What to do?
A: most Likely, this happened because of Your edits with this file extension .ini (in the INI file.big in the game folder). The name of the file that caused the error written in the error window. Then you need to either replace the original file, or reinstall the game. In the game itself.dat do not need to climb!

Q: I changed the INI.big and now during the game I have displayed the error "No sync". What to do?
A: To play on a local network, all users should be the same INI.big-files. If you changed the INI.big, then local network cannot play. But if all users will have the same Ini.big files (whether modified or not), then the web is going to play.

Q: How to make a homemade hero-mage with abilities, for example, elf?
A: you must first create a hero-mage abilities. Then create a hero-elf (also without abilities) and give it a name the same as the hero-mage (so he was standing in the list of characters behind him). After that, click on the hero-elf ==> tab Ability. Point the mouse on the button Edit and click while pressing the arrow up or down (depending on where it is in the list of the hero-mage). We have the following - we edit the hero-mage, but the abilities can be set from elf. This method works with any heroes.

Q: I scored the maximum number of points of Strength and bought all sposobnosti. But I still have 4 points. Are they needed for something?
A: No, not needed. This is, apparently, a bug.

Q: is it Possible to change (or better delete) standard created by the heroes?
A: in Principle, this can be done by editing the source code INI.big'a. But it's so hard, it is better not to do this, and to put up with already built in to the game heroes.

Q: hi TurbO . a question. I tweaked the ini for my taste. but they always play in LAN with friends. they did not change anything, I don't know. now at the beginning of the game it sputters and says that there is no synchronization. this means that there is no possibility to make changes and play with them? only with the original ini ?

i
i74eRtcZ 15.05.20

To play on a local network, all users should be the same INI.big-files. If You change settings in the INI file.big, it to play on LAN you will not succeed. But if all users will have the same INI.big files (whether modified or not), then everything will work fine.

Darth_Nichronus

In principle I do not play online and I just looked in the launcher which cards were added in newer patches...I saw that there is a Udûn or Brody Isen II means version is already much newer than 1.0....I like the Daemon Tools is and like downloaded files that it can otkrut

Darth_Nichronus

Exactly! I love playing dwarves for example and now they don't need to buy a banner for 1000 in the barracks and just build the barracks. The same hammers for protection are not 1000, and 500, as in the HIV king. Same creature from the dens have become stronger. About cards, in my opinion their 3 added in the last 1.06: the Udûn, Brody Isen II and like the hills of the battle or something like that. Know what the Udûn and Brody was immediately in Vica. Gimli added aura +50% armor. I know so far is only updated for the gnomes.

I just downloaded Anglesey version. Went to the line online, where proposed patch that would supposedly play online(I already get an account on EA just for the sake of jokes for vkurse that the servers shut down). Certainly required disk, then downloaded and put no dvd. Though God knows which version of the shows, but the app seeing

Hello! Assist please! I can't install mods The History of Ages 1.3.1. I have a lot of forums osmotra where people have had a similar problem. Did it seems so as advised by expert people, but when I run the mod, after you install it, always gives an error message about some error and try to run the game itself(Under the banner of the King the Magician)- said to insert the disk(but before you install this mod the game safely run without disk).
