Hi man. I dont know if you know this. But there is a bug in the Burning of the westfold story. Once your in town it's not possible to get past the second stair. So basicly the story ends there.
Yeah please fix that

Dol guldurs risen dead patrols for buildings do not respawn once they die
What about the 2.02 v9 Trojan file comments? Do you trust them it's safe?
i believe it's safe - many times when doing sth with bfme or rotwk the system thinks it's a virus, and nothing has happened to me from these files, especially when the devs said it was ok
Thanks for the new Version, but I am getting warning that theres a Virus in the file. What is that about?
Thanks 4 update works great ..
thank you for the update i enjoy this mod so much :D
Glad you like it!
There is a problem with the AI of 8.1
What kind of problem ?
Came here to talk about this too. Played Death March a lot and they dont seem to build many units or do much of anything other than base building. It's like they're on Peasant difficulty. Tried multiple maps
Amazing Mod, thank you to all the Aotr team!

Return of the King ? Hobit ? nothing ? :D
Nope
What happens with the return of the king campaing?
After careful consideration we have decided not to develop the Return of the King due to the extensive workload required - The Two Towers took 18 months to develop and some of us have been working on Age of the Ring project for over 6 years, we would now like to move on. We are very satisfied with the Fellowship of the Ring and Two Towers campaigns and are glad that so many people have been able to enjoy them.
Understandable. But sad.
Ooh please continue that , that's really good and better than stories in main game

translation problems - the game does not like spaces in displays, all displays must be without spaces - the display with spaces is used in the map - while the lotr.CSF translation has a display with a space too - but the game reads the display without spaces, it does not find it, using lotr files .str is no good, because the utf-8 encoding of the game itself does not understand the Keryl alphabet, and other Latin symbols - which also leads to the same problem of not finding the display - it is desirable to write displays only in classical Latin, other types of Latin with symbols the game does not understand translates them into classic, which also leads to the display not being found, and without spaces, also without fail

So The Return Of The King Campaign Supposed To Never Make?
🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Thanks for the update, but is there a way to just extract the files to somewhere I choose instead of installing it automatically in game directory? So I can edit ini files manually.

I downloaded 8.1 and then absentmindedly deleted the desktop icon for it.
Went to try to find the installation path for 8.1 in my Program Files, but am unable to locate it.
Tried to redownload and update again but it says I already have 8.1 installed.
Any suggestions on how I can find/create the 8.1 application?
Thank you in advance!

Is it possible to set the limited special troops to unlimited? I would love to play with larger armies of those special troops.
remove the line with maxsimultaneousoftype in that unit's ini file
I think I found the correct path (AOTR8.0 > aotr > data > ini > object > goodfaction > units > rohan > rohanroyalguard.ini)
But I cannot find the line "maxsimultaneousoftype"...
