2017-05-19T04:02:46+00:00 I have also tried the compatibility options... none of them are working correctly. I don't know why? Hope it will for windows 10.
Like your, Here in my PC The game was not allowed to create an options. ini in the C:\Users[your login name]\AppData\Roaming\My Battle for Middle-earth(tm) Files folder.

2017-03-12T21:05:36+00:00 I also have tried the compatibility options... none of them work. I'm going to try this reply I found below out and see if it does the trick. The instructions below I know work for Vista, Windows 7, 8, and 8.1. Hopefully it will for windows 10.
The game was not allowed to create an options.ini in the C:\Users[your login name]\AppData\Roaming\My Battle for Middle-earth!\[\](http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png)(tm) Files folder. So if you don't see an options.ini you'll have to create one yourself... it should contain the following lines:
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 = 1680 1050
SFXVolume = 70
ScrollFactor = 50
StaticGameLOD = UltraHigh
TimesInGame = 54
UnitDecals = yes
UseEAX3 = no
VoiceVolume = 70
you will have to adjust the resolution to that of your own screen!
Thanks! It worked :)
I'm using the patched version (1.02) on Windows 10.

2017-01-07T19:17:05+00:00 DO you thing that the makers of Lord of The Rings games will possibly remake them so they are more updated and compatible? I think all die hard fans are waiting for a game that is similar to the one we all love but is updated with more options, and sticks to books and movies themes like the originals did so well.
