How do I know if my mod is working? I checked some gondorians towns as the Kingdom of Gondor and I could build the Barracks to recruit professional troops and other buildings like ports and paved roads. But the roster of factions is still the same... I don't see any new factions and the campaign stills begins at 2980. Using the Third Age bat starts the mod but using the 3rd.Age.bat stars vanilla game.

EDIT: Fixed, but now faces the same problem of other people, crash in battles. It loads and all, but after a few seconds into it crashes.

Happy New Year! I just started playing this great mod again, and I notice food production boost stays at .5% no matter how many farm upgrades I build. Any advice on how to fix this?

[Toranks]

In custom battles, when I select the size of city/castle, the game crash. Does anyone know why and how to fix it?

Hello! I have played this mod for 277 turns as Men of the West, and I loved it!

My hope was to become The Reunited Kingdom, but as you already discussed, the script is not working. I defeated Isengard and was trying to reach Mordor, then I got a message saying that The One Ring was with The Dark Lord, without any previous message! And my diplomatic relations became very poor with many allied factions.

So, to not waste my progress, I tried to kill the Dark Lord and see what could happen. But my problem was the Nazgul. As Gondor have conquested the two gates, Mordor was bankrupt, so, they started to gather all the Nazgul into the same army. It's just impossible to defeat one single, how about almost 20? And they respawn... I did not read the books, but in the movies, they are not so numerous (in the game, each general have 5 or 6, I don't remember).

My questions are:
1) Is there any way to defeat them without auto solve battles? If not, How could I reduce their numbers? I don't know how to modding.

2) Have you already fixed the scripts about The One Ring? If yes, could you put here the new files?

Don't give up this mod, please! The best one I've ever played hahaha

Sorry for my English, I'm brazilian

for killing nazgul use catapults or any artillery they ignore the multiple hit points the nazgul have if using flaming shot

I will check out what was reported and post some answers later. Thanks for reporting it.

I recently deleted my files for a fresh install of the latest version and your question made me go digging in my old posts. It looks like the ring script hasn't been fixed in the released version yet, so I guess I should re-fix it in my local copy and start a fresh campaign so it takes effect.

You have to change a bunch of lines but it's pretty straightforward work. Here is an example of how to do it: You just have to do it for a bunch of places that are copy/pasted.

Back from several month hiatus after getting frustrated not being able to install the submod. I decided to try to install this again (I really want to beta test the PCP-First Age submod), and ran into the same problems. I have MTW for steam, which seems to be the main issue. I can get vanilla TATW to work just fine, either within steam or from a desktop icon. But every time I try to install PCP when I click the desk top ring icon I get just the startup screen briefly and then exit back to desktop. This happens when I click on the .bat files directly as well. I've read many things, tried many things - is there a comprehensive troubleshooter somewhere now, geared toward the common man? Vague acronyms or references to processes are not helpful. Just interested in checking this out, but frustrated again - I wonder if there are a significant number of others who would be trying this if there were better directions.

One problem I've found is that I can't delete the existing "data" file in vanilla TATW - I get message that I need administrator permission. I've tried all sorts off sites to resolve this and nothing is working - I am the fracking administrator! I'm thinking that in the past when I dragged and dropped the replacement data file from PCP installer it's not fully replacing the vanilla file because of this permission issue. So one more thing to work out.

What Windows do you have? And, why are you deleting the existing "data" folder in vanilla TATW? You should not do that, since you need it.

Again, this is part of my problem with the directions. It says to download the PCP installer to desktop and run it, which gives you a data file on your desktop. Then it says replace the data file in TATW. That to me sounds like change out the data file in the TATW vanilla that I am converting to PCP, and replace it with the PCP data file.

Anyhow, I was able to delete the existing data file by deleting files from the bottom up, which for some reason does not require administrator approval. Time consuming. Then put in the PCP data file. Game starts and gets to beginning screen where you choose faction, but once I choose a faction it exits.

Soooooo, it sounds like maybe I need to leave an existing TATW vanilla in the mods folder, and next to it have a copy that I modify into PCP? I don't recall needing two separate files with my last install.

[Connor437KTM]

Whenever I attempt to install PCP to my desktop on Windows 10 after disabling UAC it still prompt me to log on as an administrator. I am the only user on my PC so I'm not sure what the problem is. I really could use some help if anybody is out there

Well, data folder from the vanilla TATW needs to stay there, so when you copy+paste the PCP data folder (from your desktop) into that vanilla TATW folder, you do copy and replace the existing vanilla data folder, but, it still leaves the vanilla files which are not overwritten by the new files from PCP data folder. For example: vanilla faction intro movies, vanilla units models, textures, info and unit cards, vanilla sounds etc.

So, just install TATW 3.0 + 3.2, do not delete anything from it ( you can make a backup copy of your whole vanilla folder, in case you want to reinstall etc.), and, install PCP files (only thing which gets deleted is by PCP Cleaner, but that is another thing).

Piece of crap Windows 10 does not turn off UAC completely like it does on Win 7, and you will never get full control of your PC as in Win 7. Maybe this would help: https://www.addictivetips.com/window...-unknown-apps/

Finally! After all this it was the stupid auto time setting on my laptop that was messing things up. So many odd little things like that which can sabotage the whole program. All seems to be working, quite a bit has been improved in the Beleriand campaign since I last played!

Thanks for the encouragement and help Elvenkind, I was ready to give up again.

is there a new version of this mod now or is it still the same it was before winter

ElvenKind, I tried following the tutorial from the link you provided however my Control Panel lacks any of those options. Forgive me for being a noobie to this forum but I am not sure how to exactly share the screenshot I took

So I ran it as an administrator and was able to solve my previous problem. After moving the data folders from the main PCP data file and the Third Age Campaigns I am not sure what to do next. Can anybody help? Thanks

Well, if you have a working TATW 3.2 installed, in which you had installed PCP Cleaner file, and had run it to clean things which need to be cleaned, and now, had installed/moved PCP`s data folder + Third Age campaigns, then just run Third Age.bat (batch) file to start the mod.

If that doesn`t work, then: rename the folder (the one where PCP files are installed, presumably Third_Age_3) as PCP . Now, download Notepad++ (it is a free version text editor) and install it.

Next, go to your newly renamed PCP folder, locate TATW.cfg (configuration) file, right mouse click on it and press "Edit with Notepad++", and change this:

[features]
editor = true
mod = mods/Third_Age_PCP

to this:

[features]
editor = true
mod = mods/PCP

Save and Exit.

Next, go again to your newly renamed PCP folder, locate Third Age.bat (batch) file, right mouse click on it and press "Edit with Notepad++", and change this:

cd ..\..
start kingdoms.exe @mods\Third_Age_PCP\TATW.cfg

to this:

cd ..\..
start kingdoms.exe @mods\PCP\TATW.cfg

Save and Exit. Run Third_Age.bat (batch) file to start your mod.

Good luck!
