Title: Lord of the Rings- FOTR Demo
Post by: barnsalot on March 12, 2005, 01:55:32 PM
This is what a fan game should be like. It's made with RM2K and you can play through the entire trilogy of LOTR from what I can see. After having played through the intro to the game I was impressed and felt perhaps my friends at Charas would enjoy it as well.

Download can be found here:

On a side note, this is only a demo and may have plenty of bugs.

"MISSING FILES"

1.dungeon2.

2. Treebeard's Face?

3. Earendil's character and face seems missing.

4. Some missing files on MAP003. some Orc numbers 20, 19, 21, 18. 18! Gold Lotto! omg. kidding. sigh.

5. On MAP0078 All Chars are missing.

6. seems on the map, there is missing files, but the event
is still there, i think thier buildings.

Okay, i let you work it out, So i reckon this will be a awesome LOTR based rm2k game.

 :) Also, pretty sure i have downloaded both LOTR files. so thats my feedback.

Oh, also i forgot, "Vehicle" files. Not sure if you mean the rtp vechs. It does this before the title screen. if it means the rtp file, then thats the problem.

I put that vech file in, worked. But still fixing the other things, would be great.

And i get the "dungeon2" file missing message. Could you either post here or i'll wait for a fixed version?, thx.

if "dungeon2" is really missing that's a big problem, it's a very commonly used chipset.  I just downloaded the zip file to check, and it was in there in the single file without the RPG_RT.exe, but I haven't checked the split files.

Here it is if you're missing it.

If that doesn't save right for you here it is zipped as well:

Treebeard isn't in the game yet (it's only FOTR), but you can rest assured that I will get around to making him a face when I do TTT/ROTK.

Earendil is just that light Galadriel gives Frodo, so it doesn't have a face, or character graphic.

The missing graphics in Map03 are RTP monsters, but that map isn't even accessible in the game at all.

Map 78 is a character select menu using pictures, so it's meant to be all black like that.  Was problem #6 just about this map?

The vehicles is also RTP, though it isn't actually used in the game, just in the system.  You do get a horse and a boat though.

The RTP is required for this game BTW, there are a lot more parts that shouldn't work without it.  Hell the very first map uses one of the panoramas IIRC.

Okay. i found i needed to put a couple of rtp files, so its all good now, well until i find some more missing files.

edit: i guess you can call it a bug. Gollum repeatily says "my perious" for a while. Well not a long time. Maybe about Bilbo gets the ring, and wants like heck.

hehe, this game is preatty funny. The battle animations crack me up! They're so cheesey that they're funny. Haven't really played much of the game, but the animations are laugh out loud funny! :D

 I found 3 bugs until now:

 1 - If you just keep pushing the action button (Z) all the time in the opening, Frodo will walk slower for a while.
 2 - After the big party at the beggining, while you play as Gandalf, if you try to go to Bri he say he cant go there right now, but we cant go back, he is stuck in the village where he can't go!
 3 - If you 'do' the bug 2, then you can go down to the antoher hobbit village, talk to the old hobbit, and go to the forest (note: the faceset when Gandalf talk will now be Frodo's), if you choose go to the forest, you can play the entire game as Gandalf, until it needed to change characters.

 But the game is really, really good, it even have gollun's voice!
 And the battle animations are good too.

Damn that's a pretty big bug.
You weren't supposed to be able to get to bree at all, but I guess I neglected to cut off the route east of the Barrow Downs, right?
I'll have to fix that tomorrow.
I wish I would have playtested this thing properly, it's already been downloaded hundreds of times...crap.
If you haven't got it yet I'd wait a couple days, or make sure you avoid Bree with Gandalf at least.
I'll fix the Frodo speed too.
Does it start right from under the tree?

BTW Gollum's repetition was intentional.
