    Try these settings for the options.ini in the roaming file for rise of the witchking

    AllHealthBars = yes

    AmbientVolume = 50.000000

    AudioLOD = High

    Brightness = 50

    FlashTutorial = 0

    GameSpyIPAddress = 192.168.2.101

    HasSeenLogoMovies = yes

    IdealStaticGameLOD = VeryLow

    MovieVolume = 70.000000

    MusicVolume = 70.000000

    Resolution = 800 600

    SFXVolume = 70.000000

    ScrollFactor = 50

    SendDelay = no

    StaticGameLOD = UltraHigh

    SuppressCahPromo = true

    TimesInGame = 54

    UseEAX3 = no

    VoiceVolume = 70.000000

    These are settings from my old laptop that had no problem running BFME2ROTWK

    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
