Lord Of The Rings Online installation

Great!
So it works but we don't know why...
Go figure... thats computers for ya
Enjoy!
Feel free to post any other games you are trying out in Linux
 
Think something goes wrong in the first installation.

Sorry but i'm not so skilled for a debugging of the game, looking over that but looks a bit complicate for my knowledge :confused:
 
I'm not all that great at debugging either.
I normally look through the log for keywords like:
  • d3dx
  • dotnet
  • gdi
  • wininet
Stuff like that. Also, if you see fixme: those aren't all that important. They are just something that needs to be fixed, but doesn't stop the game from running.
If you see err: those are the important ones. Normally err: is something missing or wrong that is breaking the game in Wine
Other times its just trial-n-error
Try this, try that, load this load that.
There are times when I stumbled on a fix just by trying different libraries or Display settings.
WineHQ's is a great place to research for games to see why it won't run.
 
Hi , im using ubuntu 64 bits lts 14.04 with wine 1.6 and play on linux . few days ago I got to run the game after two weeks trying. Thanks to play on linux and steam, but I have problems with the launcher. sometimes I have to wait many minutes to finish downoloading "in lotro splash screen" .. It may be that this misconfigured something in the proxy connection?
 
As far as I know, you don't need a proxy setup, but I'm sure Steam automatically uses a proxy to download games.
Before the "splash screen" are you able to select a server?

I've seen problems like this before with games like Neverwinter

Can you post a debug from PlayOnLinux?

antes del LOTRO ultima actualizacion 15.3,im wait several minutes the launcher ("DOWNLOADING EN LOTRO") and sometimes play the game . but since the last upgrade game i see all the time the same message in launcher .

el servidor de selección es entonces de Ingreso y el Ingreso viene luego of descargar splash screen
 
sorry, I don't know spanish so I can't read your last line...

When you launch Steam in PlayOnLinux, click Debug instead of Run
Then paste it here
 
Hi guys

I had the same issue sometimes did'nt know why and onestly did'nt try to fix it, normaly just closed the launcher and tryed again worked for me and today too.

P.S. Booman the server selection it's after download splash screen

before lotro upgrade 15.3,im wait several minutes the launcher ("DOWNLOADING EN LOTRO") and sometimes play the game . but since the last upgrade game i see all the time the same message in launcher .

the select server screen comes after the downloading splash screens
 
Hmm, I don't see any significant errors.
Have you searched online for this problem?

All I can suggest is try a newer version of WINE in PlayOnLinux:
  • 1.7.39
  • 1.7.39 staging
 
Im probe todo install gane in a directory c: wine default,without playonlinux and for the moment im wait 4 por five minutes. I think the game have problems with search downloable files splash screens In a playonlinux directory
 
Yes, it could be a PlayOnLinux problem, but I haven't tried LOTR online yet.
I'll have to give it a try, its on my To Do list.

There are some interesting guides online: LOTR in Linux

I found a "workaround" for your splash screen problem.
Apparently its a problem on Mac's as well.
For some reason the loader has to download splash screens over and over
So someone has figured out a way to stop them from downloading: Solution

Navigate to this directory in your PlayOnLinux wineprefix folder:
Code: 
/Applications/LotroLauncher.app/Contents/Resources/lotroclient.app/Contents/Resources/DownloadFilesList.xml
Note: This is a Mac directory, won't be the same in Linux

Probably:
Code: 
/home/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LOTR/drive_c/users/username/AppData/Local/Turbine/The Lord of the Rings Online/Launcher

Or
Code: 
/home/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LOTR/drive_c/Program Files/Steam/SteamApps/Common/LOTR/Launcher

If you can't find it, then do a search in your home directory

Copy:
DownloadFilesList.xml

Rename:
DownloadFilesList.xml-orig

Open:
DownloadFilesList.xml

Past this in place of the existing code:
Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<FileList>
<File>

</File>
</FileList>

Warning:
This could break new patches, so make sure to remove the new DownloadFilesList.xml and rename DownloadFilesList.xml-orig back to DownloadFilesList.xml

If this doesn't work, try "locking" the files with a "Read-Only" setting by changing permissions to it.
 
hi friend , im tried too with that solution for web lotro and dont work :(..

there are someone launcher logs :

That's very frustrating :mad::mad::mad:
 
Look like the launcher needs the XML file for launching...
I'm out of ideas without actually trying the game myself.
How big is the entire download?
Maybe I'll give it a try this weekend.
I have low expectations, but its worth a try.
My setup is Mint 17 64-bit with nothing special. I try to keep it as "vanilla" as possible.
 
Geesh, that will take about 12 hours on my connection.
Guess I'll have to download it over night.
 
Downloaded the entire Lord Of the Rings Online through Steam last night.
Launching this morning and its currently patching up.
wine 1.6.2 wouldn't work at first launch, so I'm trying Wine 1.7.40
So far its patching just fine.
 
Its ridiculous how much data this game downloads.
I've already downloaded 20 Gigabytes and now the launcher has to download more.
do you ever really get to play this game?
:p
 
For me , the solution is wait and wait or go to windows .. now in ubuntu , the launcher work but probing 2 or 3 times close and open , when the message "downloading screen splash "appear , I leave until the login window appears , normally it take 4 or 5 minutes ..
