Okay so Rise of the Witch King is completely updated, new game dat, 2.02, and completely functional on it's own.
But when I try to run the T3A launcher and start up ROTWK up through T3A I keep getting the error: " ***FATAL*** string manager failed to initialize properly"
I have run as administrator multiple times, I have looked everywhere, and I have found no solutions to this problem.
I would love to start playing online with ROTWK

Run the unofficial patch launcher [to be found in the game directory] and try again. Make sure you run as admin and bfme2 is on 1.06.
"To know what question we may reasonably propose is in itself a strong evidence of sagacity or intelligence. For if a question be in itself incongruous and begs for uncalled-for answers, it holds, sometimes, besides embarrassing the proposer, the disadvantage to seduce the unguarded listener into giving absurd answers, and we are presented with the ridiculous spectacle of one [as the ancients said] milking the he-goat, and the other holding a sieve beneath."
I have a new PC with Vista loaded and every time I tried to start RA2 it would say ***FATAL*** String manager failed to initialized properly. All you have to do, is access the application in it's directory folder and right click the application file. The click the command, "Run as administrator." You shouldn't have that error pop up anymore afterwards.

re: ***FATAL*** String manager failed to initialized properly
Well, this worked, searched hard and long. The dumb person should have explained this too me after buying this game. I only bought it for red alert 2. Thanks for your advice.

re: ***FATAL*** String manager failed to initialized properly
Hi, sorry, but after I fixed the "***FATAL***" message, a new one popped up saying "Please insert correct the DVD-ROM, select OK and restart application" Unless the manufactuer placed an incorrect label or if I have a terrible case of Dislexia, then I'm about 99% sure that I DO have the correct DVD inserted. Please help.

re: ***FATAL*** String manager failed to initialized properly
Try right clicking Ra2.exe and clicking 'run as administrator', fixed that string error for me.

re: ***FATAL*** String manager failed to initialized properly
I have the same error. The game tells me to insert the disk even though its in there. It doesnt make sense. RA2 works for me though. I used to have the String manager failure problem, but not anymore.

re: ***FATAL*** String manager failed to initialized properly
I had this problem for a long time with people saying "use admin" or "use compatability mode"
This is NOT the issue Windows 7 has different access rights for users than previous OS's and the permissions for a few of the Dll files are semi restricted causing the ***Fatal*** String Manager fail to initialise message as it can't get to them
To solve this I followed the following steps
Go to "Control Panel" set your view to small icons if you cant find the next part easy Got to "User Accounts" then find near the bottom of the list on the User accounts page "change User account settings" You'll then find a vertical slider probably 1 step from the bottom. this is basicly a slider for how idiot proof you want your Windows to be, to make RA2: YR play you need to set it to the lowest then restart.
however this will disable the warnings you get when you're online and something trys running on your computer so it means that you will need to be far more careful of .exe files and the like when you're online
I've been trying since i got 1st decade to use it and just today found the answer and trying to spread the word. Good luck guys and girls and be sure to welcome your new Psionic Overlord =D
