Volyova, the same advice applies. You shouldn't be having that problem if you have no other mods installed. Are you still having the problem?

Wrench, it sounds like you may have additional mods installed. I cannot help without more detail.

Hi Philosaraptor and DeadZombie55555. Can you guys list all mods you are using? This kind of thing can happen if there are more than two uniques defined for a civ (it breaks the selection scrolling). That should NOT be the case if you just have the recommended mods, let alone the bare minimum (this mod + Yenyang's Soundtrack). But even if you do get that glitch, you should still be able to set up a game using the advanced setup UI.

I'm having the same problem as Deadzombie

When I go to select a Civilisation It won't let me scroll through them, So I checked if it was just this mod by removing it and trying, it worked, put the mod back on and I couldn't scroll, do you know why this is happening?

no matter what i do nothing from these mods show up in game. i cannot find the maps or anything.

OK, I did find the ability to auto Faith-purchase a Tomb (Tier 1) but nothing else. There was no control over the recipient city. Did not even go to a city that has my religion. Is this as intended? Thank you

I know you use faith to buy religious buildings but the do not appear in the buy queue. Is there a technology or other gate for them?

Hi jeancoste04, the advice from the previous comment applies. If you make sure you are only subscribed to Middle Earth Soundtrack, Middle Earth Only, Middle Earth City States, and LOTRC itself, it should work. If you want YenYang's Middle Earth True Start Location map, then subscribe to that mod as well and enable it along with the other mods in game. It's unclear from your comment what your issue is exactly.

please, i don't understand how to make it work. I've got the files but no map. where are they ?

That's right, those are the only mods I use. Thank you for helping me with this.

It's been a long time since I played, but you load the mods first before trying to load the save right?

The mod list should be exactly as follows: Middle Earth Soundtrack, Middle Earth Only, Middle Earth City States, and LOTRC itself. It generally also works with many other mods but unintended mod pairings can cause problems so limit it to just the above.

If those things can't be the explanation, try just unsubscribing from and uninstalling all the mods (including deleting them from your civ5 MODS folder) and then resubscribing and redownloading them all.

When I play the lord of the rings game with the mods you and yenyang made it works but civ shuts off if I load that game later

Can you be more specific?

My game has this problem where it can't be loaded does anyone know why?

@Paracetamol Cunny

That would be because it isn't installed properly - make sure you only have the mods recommended in the description enabled.

Any idea why the tech tree and white council is vanilla?

"The old graphical bug from the original MEC mod, in which some cities on the map will sometimes disappear, and occasionally reappear, remains. It has no impact on actual gameplay and the city is still there and clickable, the building models are just invisible."

Let me know if it is not this and/or a bigger issue.

See post 16 here https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/2155408716/2568690592373653253/

Your capital city just turns into a road? You mean the graphical object disappears? You are still able to click on the city's UI and interact with it as normal correct? If yes to all the above, that is a known glitch that occurs occasionally (although usually not that early on) and is not related to multiplayer. It was also present in the original MEC mod that this mod is based on (if I remember correctly) and we couldn't figure out the cause. There is nothing I can suggest to help but it should not actually interfere with the gameplay. Sorry about that.

Hey, new player here. Im just wondering. Im trying to play this mod with my friend. Whenever we load into the modded game, on turn two, whoever is not the host is turned into a road. Please help.

not sure what it was, but i unsubbed and resubbed and then deleted mod cache and that fixed the issue

Im using only those mods, I'll do some more testing today though

Can you guys list the mods you are using? It should be Middle Earth Soundtrack, LOTRC5, Middle Earth Only, and Middle Earth City States.

Tech tree is not working for me either.

The tech tree is not stunted and changed for me. I tried playing this with all of yenyangs appropriate mods and removed all other mods which could impact the tech tree but still the tech tree is just as normal with no changes. How do i fix this?

I have the Error that always get kicked out by round 65 any help maybe ?

I sent an email to the address from your google drive. Thank you.

irnf88143nfu9rq3, I have a question for you. Would you be willing to contact me privately? It's concerning Modding. Cheers - John

Thanks for the feedback! Yes of course, I was just fitting existing Civ 5 mechanics into a Middle-Earth setting - you'll notice that likewise, there are no church buildings as I replaced the religious buildings with Middle-Earth themed ones.

And I had thought the same thing about Aragorn. But I took the civs from an existing mod as described in the documentation (Yenyang's Middle Earth Civilizations) and I never replaced him.

Interesting, though I would note that Middle-Earth is pre-religious. Other than evil cults dedicated to Morgoth, there is literally no organized worship at all. Faith as is understood doesn't exist. Reverence does, but not Faith. There are no fanes, churches, temples or the like. Plus, Aragorn was High King of the Reunited Kingdoms of Arnor & Gondor, not simply King of Gondor.

Very nice,I had Middle Earth feel during the game,thank you

Wish the game had some more units for each faction, would be cool to see the ai teching up and unlocking things lune isengard mines/isengard balistas, ents etc.

Thank you!

Great mod thanks

By artwork for the units do you mean the game portraits, or the civilopedia portraits, or the 3D unit models? But to answer your question, no, I'm no longer working on this.

Is this mod still being worked on? So far it has been a very pleasent experience, thank you! I think some artwork for the unit themself would be great. What about using Battle of Middleearths: Rise of Witch King unit icons?

I'm not sure what you mean - you can hear the music playing from the mod selection menu? You shouldn't be able to.

Anyway, my only recommendation is to go into your MODS folder and delete everything, redownload the mod and put it back in the folder, then relaunch the game and go back to the mod selection menu and wait for them to download again. Someone else just confirmed they got things to work using the downloaded mod so it should be functional.

Hi, I recently downloaded the mod on a mac but it says I do not have the required dependencies. This is weird as I have both the Brave New World expansion pack and Gods and Kings expansion pack, and I can hear the LOTR soundtrack playing so I definitely have that as well... Any ideas how to fix this issue?

Yeah that seemed to work, loaded through perfectly. it is a great mod thanks!

Wow that worked? That great, I hope you enjoy it.

That worked perfectly, thanks for your help! Greatly appreciated!

As you can see I put a new google drive link in the other thread. Again, I would try replacing the "xml" folder in your local copy of the mod with the "xml" folder from google drive. If that doesn't work, try just replacing the whole mod.

Ok so it sounds like that one file is not loading. Try this: Go into the MODS folder --> Lord of the Rings Civ5 (v 3). There is a subfolder called "xml". Delete that. Then download the mod from my upload to the filehosting website (under the "direct link for mac user" thread). Extract it and copy the "xml" folder from that one, and paste it back into the original "Lord of the Rings civ 5 (v 3)" folder.

For me, the only thing that is changed is that it is LOTR characters, other then that the buildings, tech, religions and wonders are all normal/basic civ

Does it have the renamed buildings, religions, wonders etc? My mod encodes all of that in a single file along with the techs so it could be that specific file that is not loading properly.

Hi,

So I am able to download the mod via steam on the app. But when I run the mod, it loads through correctly with the LOTR civ's etc. But doesn't have the Third Age Era selection / tech tree.

Instead it is just he classic setup and tech tree.

Of course I have no reason to believe this will magically fix your problem, it probably won't, since apparently you had already gotten the mod anyway.

I just uploaded it again, you should be able to extract this and put the folder in your game's mods folder. https://www.filehosting.org/file/details/19815718/Lord%20of%20the%20Rings%20Civ5%20(v%203).zip

So just to be clear Lej21 and Noah, how did you get the mod if you can't get it through steam? I uploaded it to this filehosting website a while ago but I just checked and it looks like the link expired.
