- The Lord of the Rings: the Battle for Middle-Earth by EA Pacific - Swedish
retail v1.02 patch
Version 1.02 - April, 2005
IMPORTANT NOTE:
- The NVIDIA ForceWare 71.84 and 71.89 drivers are known to cause BfME to
occasionally crash with a 'DX8 Error' message for certain users. We're working
closely with the NVIDIA team to solve these issues. If and only if you
experience a greater frequency of crashes under the 71.84 or 71.89 drivers, we
recommend you try using the 66.93 drivers until a better solution becomes
available. This issue affects all existing versions of BfME, patched or
unpatched.
Issues addressed:
1. DISCONNECT CODE & NETWORK CHANGES
- Players who disconnect in the 1v1 ladder now get a disconnect and a loss
stat. The remaining opponent in that match gets a win. The 1v1 ladder is
updated accordingly.
o The new disconnect code does not apply yet for the 2v2 ladder. We are
working with Gamespy to implement the new disconnect code on the 2v2 ladder as
quickly as possible. We will update you as soon as it has been implemented. We
will still enforce our current Disconnect Policy as a second measure to ensure
fair play.
- Added an early detection feature that will kick players who disconnect and
reconnect their network cable after a certain number of attempts.
- Fixed a bug that gave everyone in a 2v2 Quickmatch a "victorious" message if
two players on the same team disconnected.
- Fixed a bug that caused some high-ranking players to Quickmatch against
first-time users.
- 2v2 Quickmatch stats are updated a little quicker on the Ladder site and
Profile menu.
- Nurn (3v3 map) has been removed from the 2v2 Quickmatch map queue.
- Cair Andros and Eaves of Fangorn (3-player maps) have been removed from the
1v1 Quickmatch map queue.
- Fixed a desync caused by upgrading numerous Trebuchets that are bombarding an
area with Fire Stones.
2. GARRISON FEATURE
- Ruined Towers can now be garrisoned and transformed into a defensive
structure by nearly every infantry unit.
- Garissoned units can be removed from Ruined Towers at any time.
3. BALANCE CHANGES
- Gandalf's Istari Light, as either Gandalf the Grey or Gandalf the White, no
longer kills the Mordor Witchking with one attack.
- Pikemen Heavy Armor upgrade gives less protection against attacks by
soldier-class units. This should make infantry units a viable counter to them.
- Nazgul are slightly more resistant to archers and fire.
- Saruman's Fireball does more damage to hero units.
- Saruman now gains Leadership as a default ability.
- Nazgul normal speed increased slightly.
- Nazgul swoop speed increased significantly.

Orc Laborer, etc) anywhere on the map by "pushing" them with another friendly
unit.

rocks at once.
- Mumakils now properly damage castle walls and Ent Moots.

Domination on them after their banner carrier had died.

horde that's using the Bloodthirsty ability.

- Warg Heavy Armor is now less resistant to normal damage and flame damage, but
is more resistant to damage from heroes.

been increased significantly.

- Freezing Rain reset timer increased from 3 minutes to 4 minutes.
- Darkness reset timer reduced from 10 minutes to 4 minutes.
- Cloud Break reset timer reduced from 6 minutes to 5 minutes.
- The Gondor Ranger's had a bug that caused their arrows to get weaker when
when upgraded with fire arrows. This has been fixed.
- Theoden's mounted speed increased to match that of the Rohirrim.
- Gondor's summoned Rohirrim now come already upgraded with Shields and Heavy
Armor.
- Boromir and Faramir have slightly more hitpoints.
- Faramir's armor is now stronger.
- Faramir now receives the proper armor type when mounted.

fully upgraded. They are now tougher when fully upgraded.

against cavalry.

cease being built.
