Am I sure about what? The population numbers? As sure as I can be on my server because I'm looking at the ingame socials on a daily basis. The numbers are back to pre-gundabad levels. I didn't...
You may be experiencing the following:
- Getting disconnected from world chat, possibly followed by connection re-established.
- Lost game progress. You'll be playing the game and suddenly get...
You don't need a game account to fake your playtime on Steam. You don't even need to sign-in. You just need to open the launcher.
Your playtime increases just leaving that launcher open. If you...
Don't let them get to you Loriandra. It's funny how some players here can espouse LOTRO community. Yet they can't just answer the simple request with a simple response.
If it were me, and I bet a...
Turns out every LOTRO install is unique. I compared hashes across Windows 10 Pro, Windows 11 Pro, and Steam. These are all installs where the patching worked perfect. Each install has unique dat...
Well it turns out SSG patches their steam and windows installs differently. I tried to speed up the repair by using steam dat/datx files that have already been patched to 33.2.1. These steam dat/datx...
Excellent, so content creation has perks. Thanks for clearing that up maartena. :cool:
No worries. I have too much free time right now. :o
When I tested this problem I used a VPN IP that was already on several anti-spam/abuse blocklists. That may be the difference. SSG may also...
The dat, and datx files are memory-mapped when the game client loads. If any of these files are the wrong version (due to patch failure like I experienced), or perhaps damaged (due to storage...
I would also like to ask about the codes. They sound like something you would enter into in-game LOTRO store. If that's the case, how does one obtain these giveaway codes? I'm only asking because...
Bad news for anyone experiencing this type of crash/lockout issue. tl;dr you should just run the repair.
OK so if this is the result of a patching failure like I experienced above read on. You...
I think I may have a clue why the problem is happening. After the last patch (33.2.1) I went around and updated all my LOTRO boxes. I encountered a strange bug on my Windows 11-N install.
The...
I got mine from a fishing supplier.

No idea why Hobby Masters wouldn't carry them. I think I asked myself the same question....
Even more reason to fix UI scaling.
You're talking about bigint implementations. Well I guess so, sure. If SSG were using bigint, in any way, that would certainly impact performance. I specifically meant a pure 32bit server with only...
Maybe for mechanical HDD. It actually depends on storage performance and hashing algorithm. The speed of the hashing algorithm will be vastly faster than storage. Assuming a throughput of 100MB/s...
I don't think so.
SSG will probably use integer instead of float purely because of the performance advantage of integer operations. The servers are apparently 32-bit so they can only technically...

Safari Mobile
No worries. Thanks to your comment I realized I should update my other thread with a bunch of different browser results.
I can confirm the blank page you see on Safari Mobile is not related to a...
What interesting about this solution is that the launcher is supposed to check requirements. Apparently the "check" only confirms a file exists.
SSG, you need to check the hash of each file. Don't...
Probably not. The issue I'm discussing in the OP has to do with an old TLS configuration. It will typically manifest itself as a weak cipher selection made in spite of more secure alternatives.
I...
At the time when the internet migrated to TLS 1.3 it was noted: TLS 1.2 is a mess, and people still using TLS 1.2 would likely do it wrong. There's so many ways to do HTTPS wrong with TLS 1.2. I just...
There are many connection errors that can occur accessing the forums. This type of error has some causes local to your computer, and one major SSG cause. In general this message means the HTTPS...
I heard the new bridles scale pretty good. I have an alt at lv130 with an old medium bridle having 22.3K morale. I have a lv135 with the new medium having 34.8K morale. Also a lv125 with the new...
