Honestly, I've had exactly *zero* luck getting LotR mobs to spawn in the Overworld using JAS, so if that's your primary reason for using it, I'd look somewhere else. Plus, there are a bunch of gameplay changes that you may or may not want depending on what other mods are in your pack, especially the enchanting system. Then there's the fact that LotR is practically a mod pack in an of itself. There's new stones, ores, trees with custom wood, crops, quests, an entire biome system separate from vanilla, NPC factions... Good grief, it's almost a separate game.
Not that you can't have other mods in addition to LotR. I've got almost 50 running.
Isn't that only in the special dimension though? I haven't seen anything in the overworld yet myself. I didn't try spawning anything in either, but I guess I should try that and make sure it works before I get public opinion on whether it's worth it or not. I did see that it adds a whole ton of new things and like you said, it's like a modpack in itself, but I don't plan to use the dimension. Not sure if I can make that work or if it's worth the time and effort.
EDIT:
I was able to get Trolls to spawn in the Overworld, though I did notice at first they were spawning and instantly despawning for some reason, but then that stopped on it's own, which is strange. All I did was change their type to MONSTER in the entityhandlers and change their weights and such in the SpawnListEntries.

That's kind of the problem. I've tried getting LotR mobs to spawn in the normal Overworld with absolutely no success. Less than no success, in fact, considering how often the game refused to load with my various config edits.
Somewhat related, but tangentially, I noticed on the wiki that fruit is harvested by breaking the leaves. Do the leaves grow back at some point or does harvesting simply result in a bare trunk? If the latter, I have to question the efficacy of this system.

I got them to spawn, it just took a minute for them to show up.
Does anyone know of a mod which mass replaces blocks? I'm trying to rebuild my spawned Easterling fortress with high-elven blocks, but its rather cumbersome to do by hand.

I have a question for you guys regarding mod compatibility with Tinkers Construct. While the game loads correctly with both mods installed, the bows added by Tinkers Construct don't render in 3rd person properly. Instead of showing the aiming animation, they glitch into your arm. This only happens when this mod is added, so I was wondering if anyone else had experienced this.
I have no idea which mod is to blame for this bug/glitch though but I'm hoping if it's caused by this mod, that there might be a fix for it? If this is a known bug that I'm not aware of, please tell me, I haven't found any info on it anywhere.
I haven't been following this mod as closely as I used to. Has the creator quit the project, or has it just been put on hold?

Now look, buddy. I'm an Engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like 'what is beauty', because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. Like, how am I going to stop some big, mean mother-hubbard from tearing me a structurally superfluous new behind? The answer: Use a gun. And if that don't work: Use more gun. Like this heavy-caliber, tripod-mounted little ol' number designed by me. Built by me. And you'd best hope, not pointed at you.
Well that's a relief. This is probably one of the largest high-quality mods out there.

Really? Can you share your config files?

Sorry for the late reply. I deleted this mod almost as fast as I added it. Wasn't worth the headache to strip it down for just a couple creatures.
I have a problem setting my minecraft forge server with this mod I tried other mods and it worked but LOTR mod isn't working for some reason.
The single player is working great only the server is the problem it says "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space..." and shuts down.
Thanks in advanced
Is this mod open source

I think devs are still working on this mod, but doing it more slowly due to whatever is happening in their life/lives. regardless it's a nice mod.
