Battle for middle earth 2 and windows 10 can work?

[JKara3]

I have windows 10 and battle for middle earth 2 crashes when it wants to execute. Should I downgrade the driver? If so, how do I do it?

Hello, jk8200:

This is to give you with an update for the issue.

We have found some troubles while getting the game on a digital platform, for that reason, we are required to get a physical copy of the game, this will take a little longer to be achieved.

The recommendations so far are, use the drivers that were working fine while we handle this situation, also, you could try to launch the game in compatibility mode with Windows 8*

Recommendations found here:http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10/windows-10-with-lord-of-the-rings-battle-for/760d961e-3b5c-470d-a070-aa3d39a2fc2e%3Fauth%3D1 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10/windows-10-with-lord-of-the-rings-battle-for/760d961e-3b5c-470d-a070-aa3d39a2fc2e?auth=1

Esteban, I did try this with this config and a different one. This is required to work with every graphic driver!

Nevertheless thank you!!

Esteban,

The version Im using is 1.01. Probably the crack version is only for this one given that when I updated it, it failed to work.

And the options.ini Im using is the following.

AllHealthBars = yes

AlternateMouseSetup = no

AmbientVolume = 50

AudioLOD = High

Brightness = 50

FixedStaticGameLOD = UltraHigh

FlashTutorial = 0

HasSeenLogoMovies = yes

HeatEffects = yes

IdealStaticGameLOD = Low

IsThreadedLoad = yes

MovieVolume = 70

MusicVolume = 70

Resolution = 1366 768

SFXVolume = 70

ScrollFactor = 50

StaticGameLOD = UltraHigh

TimesInGame = 84

UnitDecals = yes

UseEAX3 = no

VoiceVolume = 70

I can share with you the cd image of the game so you install it.

Let me know!

Hello jk8200,

Would you please install the latest patch for this game and test it out?

It is required to have both the game and system updated to have the best configuration available as of now.

For some reason, I did download the patch and eventually a crack to run with no dvd the version 1.06. It did work using the former version of the drive (as it also worked with the 1.01). But when I updated the graphics driver to 20.19.15.4483, it crashed.

Any suggestions? Perhaps in any dll?

Thanks for the answer, jk8200

I just want to confirm, have you tested the behavior of the latest drivers while using the latest patch?

I look forward to your reply.

Hello Fairy ,

Do you have the latest patch installed for this game?

Here you can find and download the patch: http://www.middleearthcenter.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=412 http://www.middleearthcenter.com/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=412

Additionally, do you have the Intel HD Graphics on your device updated?

Here the beta driver 4539: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26347/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=88345 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/26347/Intel-Beta-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-10-and-Windows-7-8-1-15-40-?product=88345

Please note older Intel HD Graphics may not work with this driver, supported adapters (Intel HD Graphics) can be found in the "Release notes (pdf)" link in the download page.

Let me know how it goes

Regards,Esteban C

Hi,

I believe I have the same problem as jk8200 due to the HD Graphics

However, he says he can get the game to work with the 15.36.3.64.3907 driver. For some reason I can't install it (when I try to do so, I'm told that I already have the best version installed) and I'm not sure how to force the installation.

Thank you for your help.

I have been trying to get bfme2 and rotwk working for ages and cannot get it working. I have a intel core i5 6200u 2.30ghz, intel hd graphics 520

I have the options ini file, all update patches etc from downloads. Is it more likely its my graphics card? or do i need to install a specific driver?

what a nightmare it is to play an old game.

Thanks for any help.
