2016-07-02T18:07:56+00:00 Hi All,
I have found a solution for windows 10! So the options.ini file creation does work. You just need to make sure you actually put an .ini (configuration) file into it and not create a text file. You cannot just create a text file and rename it options.ini!
Here's what I did:
- Search in your C: drive for ".ini"
- Copy any .ini file into the game folder located at (C:)>Users>your username>appdata>roaming>game folder
- Rename the file to "options", open in it notepad or notepad++ and replace existing text with what is below this. Hope this works for you!
AllHealthBars = yes
AlternateMouseSetup = no
AmbientVolume = 50
AudioLOD = High
Brightness = 50
FixedStaticGameLOD = UltraHigh
FlashTutorial = 0
HasSeenLogoMovies = yes
HeatEffects = yes
IdealStaticGameLOD = Low
IsThreadedLoad = yes
MovieVolume = 70
MusicVolume = 70
Resolution = 1920 1080
SFXVolume = 70
ScrollFactor = 50
StaticGameLOD = UltraHigh
TimesInGame = 54
UnitDecals = yes
UseEAX3 = no
VoiceVolume = 70
[info] = Lotr.csf
*Note: You may have to change the resolution
