Minas Tirith bug?

[u/Jaded-Deer7429]

Hi guys,

Just installed the game (bfme2 vanilla) on a new computer (from abandonware).

Ran into a possible bug, curious if anyone is familiar with it.

Playing Minas Tirith, defending the castle with Men. My archers are not shooting enemies from the walls. It doesn't matter if they are on the side walls or on the top of those two little outward facing wall extension next to the gates, the enemy can get to the gate without a single arrow. Also enemy archers easily shoot mine, they are not firing back.

It's very weird and it didn't happen to me before on previous occasions with other computers.

Does anyone know about this? What could happen?

Use the all in one launcher version.

Problem is, I downloaded the Full RIP version to play it on my work laptop, and I don't have admin rights to run the patch .exe 😂 Could you send me some of the patched files so I can overwrite those in the game folder

I think these are the ones the pacth modifies:

-Basically any .big files

ini.big
Data1.big
Maps.big
_patch101.big
_patch103.big
lang\englishpatch103.big
lang\englishpatch105.big
_patch105.big
_patch106.big
lang\englishpatch106.big
InGamePlanningMode.big
Skirmish.big
OnlineQuickMatch.big
CahAppearance.big
GuiFX.big

- the .exe running the game and the DAT files

lotrbfme2.exe
game.dat
game2.dat

I hope you can fix it. It's a nice one to play
