OK, if you have got here, that means that you are installing Elves Mod V5 by nickthemenace (me!). The final bit is just making a shortcut to lotrbfme.exe, and adding the mod parameter to it, but i just couldnt work out how to do it with the installer creater i used. This is for the people that dont understand how to make a shortcut with the mod parameter. (even if you think you can do it, i suggest you follow these instructions anyway.

Step one: Locate lotrbfme.exe. This is usually in C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battle For Middle Earth.

Step two: right click on lotrbfme.exe and select 'Create Shortcut'

Step three: in this same folder, you should find a file called 'Shortcut to lotrbfme.exe'. Right Click and select 'Properties'

Step four: there should be a box labelled "Target" and in it should be something like: "C:\Games\BFME\lotrbfme.exe" or "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battle For Middle Earth\lotrbfme.exe". At the end of it put:

-mod nickselvesmodv5.big

and that it. You may want to rename the shortcut to something like NicksElvesMod, but its up to you. Just run the shortcut to play the mod, and the original game (what you would normally run) to play normally. For those of you who still may not understand the target box should look like this:

C:\Games\BFME\lotrbfme.exe -mod nickselvesmodv5.big

or

"C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battle For Middle Earth\lotrbfme.exe" -mod nickselvesmodv5.big

 

Have Fun!!
