Tolkien's Middle-Earth Modpack

[Angelscotboi]

Im having problems with missing sound files for certain Units Dustin so I may be a little longer...
So far ive replaced about half of the Units from sources I can find on CFC - and added one or two more.

Ill either alter all the INI files for the Units to point to the individual folders in PTW or copy the Sound effects to each Unit folder - not sure which...what do you think?

Hello,

I have been helping out over on the LOTM thread, and due to somebody posting there, remembered this mod. Downloaded it long ago, and am glad that somebody is working on it. I hope that it comes to fruition.

For the LOTM thread, I made a map of Northwestern middle earth during the third age, and if you want you could use it. It was originally a PTW map, but somebody made it into a conquests map adding a few marshes and Mount Doom.

I hope that this is useful. I'm very glad to see that somebody is working on this.

i was w0ndering if anyone has tried this in conquest. When I do I can start a game, but as soon as i place my first city it gets destroyed and I get an conquest defeat sign. Any help would be appreciated.

 

[Angelscotboi]

So far this is only compatible with PTW - i dont think GIDustin has Conquests and I dont have it yet either.

We will probably convert it to Conquests eventually.

I would assume since PTW comes with Conquests that you could install the mod in the PTW scenarios folder...

 

[GIDustin]

I do have conquests, but just havent converted it yet. I am waiting to see what I am going to do. I just went to see LOTR: , um, <insert title of 3rd movie here>, so I am more learned in the ways of Middle Earth. I will look at that map and see what I can do with it.

We may make a new thread for the "new" version of the mod since, technically, the last 7-8 pages of this thread were considered "thread-jacking" And, if I feel "up" to it, I may make a website too. I noticed that the mod doesnt have custom techs, or wonders, or anything. Perhaps we can touch on that.

I will post more details later.

Ive already asked Naervod to write a far more comprehensive civilopedia for this mod.

Dont know about the tech tree i discussed that with a few ppl too...

I think a new thread is needed but where?

 

[Chimera]

While conquests comes with ptw it does not include a scenerio folder for it, the scenerios are placed under conquest/scenerio. I tried changing file types, but no luck, I get the same results.
And a new thread would be appreciated, it's hard to follow what is most up to date

 

[GIDustin]

For the conquests thing, you should still be able to put BIX files in the Conquests/scenarios folder.

And yes, a new thread is desired. First, who wants to lead the group to make the new mod? They should be the one to start a new thread.

- GIDustin

 

[Chimera]

I've tried leaving it as a .bix, but same result, I've also tried putting it in both the scenario and conquest folder, no luck either way.

 

[Angelscotboi]

I think probably you GIDustin...

 

[GIDustin]

Well, like i said before, I wouldnt mind helping with the mod, but I dont want to be the leader. I am already the leader of another mod and that has my attention over everything else right now.

Also, just wondering, but there is already a LOTR mod in the works. Why start another one?

- GIDustin

 

[Angelscotboi]

This isnt really starting - its finishing ;-)

 

[GIDustin]

Well, either way, I will help, but not lead

Hee hee This mod finally works for me. Does anyone actually read this far into the posts for stuff? If you read this, Eclipse, thanks a lot!

Sorry, false thread. How can I cancel this?

 

[lycanthrope]

So, has anyone gotten this mod to work with Conquests? If so, how?

 

[PeregrineFalcon]

Is there a way to get this mod to work with Civ3 Gold? I tried putting it in the PTW Scenarios folder and it loaded fine but the only new graphics were for the leaders(Elessar, Theoden, etc). And for that matter does anyone know if the Conquests expansion will work with the Gold version of Civ. I'm not sure why Firaxis felt the need to make the Gold version different rather than just making it a bundled Civ3/PTW with a little extra content. Thanks.

 

[Point13]

noob question, will uninstalling Civ3 make me able to play the orginal version? or would i have to delete the file?

 

[Point13]

also where should i extract all these files too?

 

[yaksack]

If I download this mod, does it give serveral scenarios or just one? The first mod I downloaded gave me one, unless I did something incorrectly, which is always an option. The other mod I downloaded was "Master of Myrror Fantasy Mod".


Thanks
