LotR: Battle for Middle-Earth [ENGLISH] No-CD/Fixed Image

[LinsoN]

THE EXPLOSION IS CAUSED by simply Copying every file from pc to another pc...

the protection <LOTRBFMe.dat> is checked by the main exe and compare with the machine ID. if not the same.. BOOM!

you actually need to run the setup file from the original ea installation...

if you want a simple fix.. you need to make a setup (installation) for your self...a tiny one if you want A CD Version....

People tend to copy paste file from pc to another pc... LOTRBFME doesnt allow it...

you need the installation file...

If you want a mini-setup ..

create one..

edit commonfile and remove everything from compressed.zip ...

I successfully created a DVD to CD convert using ea's SETUP.. just trick the installer...

example: edit common_filelist.txt
decompress all files from compressed.zip
and zip them again in 650 mb seperate all files
add everything per cd...

too hard to explain

you just need to make sure you end up at disc 1 during the final installation to gain the .dat

be creative in making the compressed.zip

never forget, you need all the files from the original dvd... you should not miss one... you can add though... If you want to add the no/cd fixed... you can add a line...

maybe someone here can elaborate this.. I can't explain it well.. though I created a successful dvd to cd.... with working no cd... + protection id... I am not good at explaining in text
