=== Unspecified patch error ===
 
As of the Siege of Mirkwood release, the LOTRO patcher no longer functions correctly if the game is running. If you get "Unspecified patch error" when the launcher is at "Examine Game Data", you will need to use multiple game folders. See [http://isboxer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=160#p160 this post on the ISBoxer.com forums] for details if you are not sure how to do this.
 
 
 
=== Can't bind local socket ===
 
# Open your UserPreferences.ini file, found in your Documents\The Lord Of The Rings Online folder
 
# Look for a line that says [Net] near the bottom
 
# A couple lines below [Net] is a line that says
 
ComputeUniquePort=True
 
Change it to:
 
ComputeUniquePort=False
 
 
 
=== Something about R6034 and the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library ===
 
This has something to do with other software installed on your PC not playing nicely. A small minority of people get this issue. We are working on a permanent solution for this problem.
 
 
 
If you cannot wait, here are some suggestions:
 
# Reinstalling Windows and not installing any other software will definitely solve the problem, but may be tough to swallow
 
# Try shutting down other running programs
 
# Try uninstalling programs

Helpful snippets from ISBoxer Chat

Creating a follow button in game

  • May 12 13:58:23 <Kyth> I have a question about setting things up for Lotro. Every time i set my character to follow my main. That works fine. But when i go to attack, the follower loses follow. Is there a way to attack and reinstate follow without having to switch screens after every kill?
  • May 12 13:59:14 <nathanastack> In-game do you have Skill target forwarding on?
  • May 12 13:59:16 <Lax> You should never have to switch screens in order to perform an action on the other window. you can make a Mapped Key to press a button in your other window to make your other character follow
  • May 12 14:00:18 <Kyth> Do you need it on for both characters? i have it on for the follower
  • May 12 14:01:39 <Kyth> And about the mapped keys, in lotro its always been ./follow i have never seen a key binding for this
  • May 12 14:02:35 <nathanastack> You can set /follow somewhere on your quickslot bars, for instance at the end of the bottom one, which corresponds to "=" and make a key map in lotro to send = to your slave lotro
  • May 12 14:03:12 <nathanastack> or change the quickslots bindings to anything u want
  • May 12 14:03:29 <Kyth> How do you set /follow to a key binding as you describe?
  • May 12 14:07:09 <nathanastack> in-game type /quickslot 12 /follow
  • May 12 14:07:09 <nathanastack> that will set /follow command to slot 12
  • May 12 14:07:18 <nathanastack> then in-game, go to keybindings
  • May 12 14:07:51 <nathanastack> esc > Options > Keymapping. Then click on quickslot 12
  • May 12 14:07:56 <nathanastack> and press the key u want it set to
  • May 12 14:08:19 <Kyth> perfect. Thanks nathan.
