I hope that we can give the playtesters a beta before friday next week. After more than a year of working on this we're getting pretty close to a final version :grin:

Crap, I need to install MTW again.
Is this for VI? Or just MTW?
VI has some extra features that gives us a better engine to recreate Middle-Earth. It allows us to have for example more unique unitgraphics and raiding Orcs.
So ME:TW requires VI.
Wahooo, yes, finally you guys decided to upgrade! :iloveyou:
DJ.
The original gondor rohan and isengard units of the beta version will be in next version, or have you made new unitgraphics?
~:wave:
it's a very good decision to upgrade the mod to VI ...
~:cheers:
SERIOUSLY?!! SWEET!!! Can't wait for your excellent piece of work :thumbsup:Quote:

Whens it coming out?
Hello, I asked when its coming out ( alittle impatient)
Yeah i know i can't wait, if it comes out too late it will be eclipsed by rome.
Hello almost three weeks!!!
Were is the mod?
Don't worry. nearly there now. We had a bit of trouble with our techtree but DJs sorted it.
We have 2 seperate castle lines, one for good factions and one for evil factions. We thought this could be easily modded, but that wasn't the case. It took me quite a few days of debugging and some tricks to make it work. Now I'm finishing up, but guess what, M:TW refuses to start :wall:
I'm modding Hoggy's unitgraphics into the game, and it's looking beautifull, so I just had to post some screenshots:

Jesus wept, when is this beauty able for beta testing DJ?
beautiful unit graphics, are they a lot more detailed than the standard M:TW units?
BKB
I don't know when we can beta test and I don't want to estimate anymore. Over the last few weeks I had so many setbacks moddingwise, and real life interfered also alot. Although I've tackled most of the problems there still are some things that need to be done before a beta.
Peregrine
The resolution is the same, or sometimes even less because we need to put alot of animations in the BIF. But the 3D models made by Hoggy that were used to render the graphics were more detailed, so it does appear as if the resolution/detail is better. Still the same amount of pixels.
your models look 10x better. :)
MY GOD IN HEAVEN!! ~:eek:
Great looking screenshots.
So what are the problems your having, maybe we can help!?
this mod looks beautiful
keep us updated please
yeah, keep working on the mod! I love tolkien and I am going to love this mod.

Is there anyone with knowledge with modding txt files in mtw to help us for finishing the mod (custom battle mod) ?
A lot of work is already done but the mod has stalled, thus, do not hesitate 1 second if you have the knowledge..., it could be never released...
I have some experience in MTW modding, now i have just release my Fall of Rome 3.0 mod and i've a few time before i'll start working on Fall of Rome 3.1 addon.
Only one question, what exactly you need?
Max
A working interface for unit selection without bugs is the most important for a custom battle mod, i will pm you a link of the current version of metw ,so you can have a look.
Thx.
Cheers ~:cheers:

MAN!!! THIS MOD IS OFF THE MUTHAFUNKING HOOK!!!
i just downloaded the beta version, OH..MY..GOD!! This mod is soo good it should be sold as an expansion pack (i'm serious)
CONGRATS!!
Just by way of encouragement - this mod looks great, and you must be nearly there with it - just one last push and you'll have a great game that you can be really proud of, and i'm sure will get played a lot (i for one am not going down the battle for middle earth route).
Span.
^^agreed^^
This is excellent. I will be looking forward to playing this gem.
I love the Lord of the Rings.
BTW, the extended version of The Return of the King will be available on Dec 14, 2004. It will have an additional 50 minutes of film added to the original theatrical release.
I have the extended versions of the first two films and they are worth it.
Will this version have a campaign mode?
Keep up the great work, fellas.
MTW has a bright future. . . :charge:
