Alternately, instead of using the (bugged) Daemon Tools, you can use Alcohol 52% or 120%, which I'd strongly recommend.

And so why do you lot not tell people to employ the Origin version of RotWK?

It's free if you have a valid key and it works without a disc (or image) and also without the Origin Client running. All yous need is to download through Origin and then authenticate at first start with your Origin business relationship details.

I don't think it's upward in that location anymore, unless you were a previous consumer?

Sources conflict on whether you still get information technology.

All that'southward left are the EA Shop/Origin-specific patches for RotWK and this abomination of a page that replaced all references to anything BFME on EA.com. http://www.ea.com/lo...-middle-earth-2

I wonder how they pulled RotWK off on EA Store when vanilla BFME2 wasn't in that location :whatoa:

I was honestly unaware of this beingness a thing!

We'll expect into this, thanks for notifying us.

EDIT: I can't detect it on Origin. Help?

Y'all take to contact Origin support and give them your CD-Key. They will then add it to your library. The problem is you withal demand to install BFME2 from disc.

I've been asking them well-nigh the basegame as well but it seems there never was an Origin version of that. However, if more people would ask almost information technology mayhap they'd consider making ane. I've already told them that people would be interested, maybe even for a pocket-sized price.

I think the reason for not showing it on Origin anymore is that, as far as I know, EA doesn't take the LotR rights anymore. Yet they still seem to be immune to distribute RotWK (or else you couldn't take information technology in your library) in a digital format. And since WB plain has no plans for selling BFME maybe EA tin rework the series for Origin. For my part, I'd beloved to be able to install and play without disc or images.

I have RotWK on Origin. I never install information technology at that place because it is pointless when y'all can just go it from here, no?

Well, you don't have to do the hassle of downloading a DVD image and mounting it every time you play. Too (although I'm no stickler for that) it's legal, whereas the other options are non.

I remember the reason for not showing it on Origin anymore is that, every bit far as I know, EA doesn't have the LotR rights anymore. All the same they still seem to exist allowed to distribute RotWK (or else you couldn't have it in your library) in a digital format.

They aren't immune to distribute it. This is only residuum.

And since WB plainly has no plans for selling BFME peradventure EA tin rework the series for Origin.

That's not how licensing works.

They aren't allowed to distribute it. This is just residual.

That'southward not how licensing works.

You recollect EA had another licencse for publishing/distributing RotWK on Origin? I don't recollect so. It certainly applied to all the games, in every grade (disc-based and digital). The problem is, while EA might be allowed to upload BFME2 to Origin, they wouldn't exist allowed to charge for it without hit a deal with WB.

For us players that's a real shame because the simply game needing a disc/image now is BFME2.

No no, I'1000 pretty sure this form of distribution breaks the licensing contract also. It'south convenient for those who have the key, but I'm pretty sure they're not supposed to exercise that. Activision refused all forms of sending replacement discs for their Star Trek games by 2008, and they were the ones who made the best apply of the license betwixt 2000 and 2003. You lot can't get whatever of them outside eBay/Amazon/torrents.

Well, you don't take to do the hassle of downloading a DVD image and mounting it every fourth dimension you play. Also (although I'm no stickler for that) it'due south legal, whereas the other options are not.

I understand this, just the goal in what nosotros are doing is to let users to not demand the CDs anyways, as we take washed for BFME1. And as far as legality goes, I guarantee you that nobody cares about someone "illegally" acquiring a BFME game as they are so old now that they're considered abandonware.
