Bug report
I got some feedback from the Spanish community... They've experienced a strange bug - the blank objects (namely the Necropolis tower and gate) do not appear (or rather, they are in game but transparent or invisible, although impassable). Any ideas...?
This was supposed to be Isengard, but Orthanc is missing (a black tower in the middle of the town):
This was supposed to be the Black Gate, but only the garrison is visible:

The central tower is missing, that's why it looks strange. All the Orcish towns on the map should look unique, with different blank objects (for example, Sauron's Barad-dur should look like the demolish Inferno town). However, some players say those objects are missing.
The question is why.

No, see the second screen - there should be a black gate around the garrison (actually, it IS there - see the movement path! - but it is invisible for some reason). Perhaps those blank objects should not overlap with others...? But that makes no sense.
Finally, it all worked fine when I tested the map.
Elvin...?

I guess so, but what does it matter...? You can put a mountain over a town and it works fine.
If you've experienced a similar bug, are you using any other mods such as LotA?

OK, but do you remember black towers in the middle of Orcish towns (Isengard and Minas Morgul)? What about Barad-dur (farthest east) - was it Inferno or not?

Ah yes, there was one black tower that was a town(I was confused where I was attacked from ) and Sauron's castle was a stronghold town with the broken inferno tower on top. I cannot remember about the black gate though.
I just remembered that while I had your map in the folder my necros from other scenarios had bloodrage racial and thus could not use spells even when they had dark magic. Sorry, forgot that in the meantime.

It means the problem is not the map... it's either conflicting with other maps/mods, or there are different versions of the game.
What about eyecandies? Elvin, you had them ON, right? Quote:

Yeah, the map messes up the data files (I created the unique features using the "shared" instead of "new" function  ). People should simply delete or remove the map from the Maps folder when they want to play other scenarios.

This is what Isengard, the town in the first screen above, should look like:

Tell you what Vlaad, this map changes so much in the base game that it's impossible to play properly - so why not make a special installation pack ala the Dark Messiah map? This way you could run the LotR map seperately, with all its features, and also play the base game without any changes.

Thanks 
Is it a mod indeed or a map only?

I have no idea how to do that. In addition, it would make more sense with a proper mod based on Middle-earth...
