Download the zoom out file "Maps.big" from here andĦ. If you want such a feature (highly recommended) for the game version 2.01 then:ĥ. Now place the supplied "ini.big" into that folder (overwrite if asked).įor new desktop resolutions you might want to get a file that enables better zoom out of the map. Go into the main game folder ("~\Electronic Arts\The Battle for Middle-earth (tm) II, The Rise of the Witch-King") and make a backup of the "ini.big" file. Extract the "ini.big" file from the downloadable archive file (you can use 7zip to do that),ģ.

With almost 20 times as much health and 4 times the armor they make the defender a formidable opponent.ġ.

Numerous gameplay changes have been implemented to all factions with balance and lore realism in mind. Using this simple tool and learning on my own to navigate around game code from so young was most likely the reason I became a programmer. I used FinalBig editor, from the then FilePlanet modding community (which is now almost extinct, probably migrated on this site, or on Moddb, or dispersed elsewhere).
I wanted to create a more realistic battle system where a couple of units don't destroy a building in 5 seconds, where Monsters and tougher creatures as well as heroes had more health & armor appropriately and where the Command Point (CP) system was more balanced (significant decrease). I made this back in 2005-2006 when I was messing around with the game files. This is the 1st game mod that I upload on the internet ever and the 1st mod I ever made.
