A. Either download a vanilla BFME2 ISO ・Link: http://www.mediafire.com/file/4heo0ipvahha...fMe_II.iso/file ・Pros: Comes with all the game features, including World-builder and supports all available languages for the game. ・Cons: Weights 4GB, it will ask you a original copy Key and there may be a crash when trying to launch it on windows 10 for first time. Although there's a solution for all that on this topic. ・Traditionally you would have needed to burn a .iso file on a DVD. Or emulae with a virtual disk through applications like WinCDEmu or DaemonTools. But, today, any compressor app like WinRAR or 7zip can extract it directly. Then you can simply run the "setup.exe" file and proceed with the installation.
B. Or download BFME2 Special Edition ・Link: http://forshire.blogspot.com/p/download-bfme-ii.html ・Pros: Easier to install, weights only 2GB, doesn't need mounting, does not need keygen, fixes the crash at startup and has new music from The Hobbit. ・Cons: Game is ripped which means certain game features & assets are deleted, such as non-english support files or World-builder. Another problem is that it comes with a old patch 1.07 version.
2. Installing with a keygen (This is not necessary if you downloaded BFME2's Special Edition)
Use a randomly generated keygen during the installation
If your game STILL crashes on loading screen do this:
1・Go to "C:\Users\YourUser\AppData\Roaming\My Battle for Middle-earth™ II Files" and ensure "options.ini" exists and is not empty.
2・If it doesn't exist, you can download this one and paste in the mentioned folder. If the folder doesn't even exist either, just create it.
3・You can either manually set your game resolution by opening options.ini with notepad, or just press 'Fix My Resolution' in the patch switcher. If you want to do it manually just go to this line and edit it to your preferred resolution. Then simply save it. You can change it in game but it only has a set amount of resolutions and doesn't support 1440p and 2160p, so if you are on high-res monitors this is the only way to do it.
5. Install a multiplayer platform
Install Gameranger, the most popular multiplayer platform

My internet connexion is very very bad, I'm in Togo for 3 months.. I'm trying to connect atm. I want to install the game in my friends computer to do some LAN
Hey Val, after 3mins or so I get a Auto Defeat when using the Keygen you supplied or any other key found online. I own a genuine copy and that works fine for one install. If we use that key on both PCs we get a Serial Key In Use message. I want to plan a LAN game with my son. Do you have any suggestions to overcome this, aside from buying another copy?
