Good day Modders!

 

Today I present a useful tool for those writing code for BFME 2 / ROTWK.

I have created a wiki which contains all kinds of information on the different modules for use in the Object class in BFME. This should help people out with figuring out if what they want to do is even possible in the SAGE engine.

Read more about it in this topic:

https://forums.revor...code-reference/

 

The plan is to expand the wiki to contain information on more subjects than the object modules, but this all depends on what areas people would like to get more information on.

I hope this code reference will be of use to many coders!

2017/04/23 - T3A:Online supports RotWK

The Rise of the Witch-king is now officially supported and can be played on our server. With the new T3A:Online launcher all three games can be launched from the same interface!

• You need the new launcher to play RotWK online
• The launcher now introduces a feature called hooking
• Hooking allows you to start the game with its normal shortcut
• RotWK has its own online status information on T3AOnline.net

For instructions, please refer to our Setup instructions. If you need support, please post in our Support forum.

 

We also have a new T3A:Online Discord server for all games: https://discord.gg/y2aWKvG

 

Thanks and have fun,

 

The T3A:Online Team

 

Seasons Greetings, fellow BFME players!

 

We are happy to announce our Christmas Special update for BFME1. For the first time in BFME1's history, Middle-earth will be completely covered in white. Our Christmas present to you!

 

This update is intercompatible, which means that it can be played perfectly against players who are not using this update. It is compatible only with the T3A:Online server. This mini mod does not modify the game balance at all.

 

After downloading, simply run the installer and start playing.

 

This update includes:

• Snowy textures for all faction-specific structures and neutral creeps
• Snowy versions of: Andrast, Carnen, Carrock, Fords of Isen, Anorien, Druadan Forest, Harlond, Wold, Lebennin, Rhun
• Christmas music instead of many original EA/LotR soundtracks

• More hidden christmas surprises

Good evening BFME1 players,

 

We are happy to announce and immediately release a fix for BFME1's stretched UI, which occurs for players using a Widescreen resolution.

The fix was developed by long-time The3rdAge modding veteran and staff member Kwen. Thanks Kwen!

 

This fix is intercompatible, meaning that installing it doesn't prevent you from playing with people that don't have it installed!

Together with our Patch 1.06 Widescreen Map height fix, you can now play BFME1 in proper Widescreen.

 

DOWNLOAD NOW

 

How does it work?

1. Unpack the _aptpatch.rar file using WinRAR.
2. Place the _aptpatch.BIG file in your BFME1 installation folder (for example: C:\Program Files (x86)\EA GAMES\The Battle for Middle-earth ™)
3. Play the game without the stretched Palantir and Spellbook!

How to use a Widescreen resolution?

1. Visit your My Battle for Middle-earth Files folder, easily accessible by typing %appdata% in the Windows Search bar.
2. Open Options.ini and add the following line: Resolution = 1920 1080 (if you have a different widescreen resolution, type that instead)
3. Play the game in full Widescreen!

Welcome back, friends of the Shire. We are pleased to unveil some new features and facilities on T3A:Online!

 

A brief tour

• You can join T3A:Online and set up your account from the new T3A:Online web site.
• You can manage your account, change your password and settings, create new profiles (nick names) and add buddies directly from the new site.
• You can disable and enable profiles so that you can have more than the current maximum number of profiles.
• You can create hidden profiles to keep yourself anonymous.

Get started with T3A:Online

If you're new to T3A:Online, you can make your Revora account and set up your new server login directly from the new T3A:Online site. Hit "Register" at the top of the front page to get started.


Setting up your Revora account

 

Please note that you can have only one account at Revora, so if you already have an account, you must not create another one and should ignore these steps. If you cannot access your existing account, please make a topic in the T3A:Online Support Forum on Revora.

Fill in the form to create your new Revora account. Your user name is the name you'll use to log into the Revora forums and theT3A:Online site and not the name you'll use to log into your game, so you don't have to worry about it being too long for your game. You'll create a separate password to log into your game too (see the next section).

You will need to verify the email address you provide, so make sure it's valid. Once you have verified your account, you can move on to the next step.


Setting up your server account

 

Your Server Login Name is the name you provide as your EA Account Name when logging into the game.

Your Server Password is the password you provide when logging into your game. That password can be completely different to the password you use to log into the forums or T3A:Online site. Please note that this password is stored as plain text, so you should make sure that it's not the same password you use to protect your important data.

Both your Server Login Name and your password can be up to 16 characters long (although they should not be less than 4 characters long) but can contain only letters and numbers (no special characters). You can easily change those details and your email address later on, if you need to.

Get online!
You can find all about getting online in each game in the setup guide on t3aonline.net.

In summary, to get online, you will need to install the latest patches and the T3A:Online launcher, which you'll find on the download page.
