Title: Re-installation Question
Post by: Kurtt on May 08, 2008, 09:44:48 AM

Right, I've finally found my game DVD (at my bro's), and am re-installing.

Any of you guys know whether I can copy over my old game directory into my new one to benfit from all the updates?

it actually keeps a copy of the most recent patch in a patches folder in the directory so unless you removed it it should still hold the last patch you downloaded

or just download the most recent standalone from fileplanet etc

If you need a log in for Fp to get their download manager and take advantage of subsriber speeds then give me a shout :D

Well, I'm buggered if I can get Lotro to work on Vista.

I'm now getting the dreaded Error [201] message. As far as I can see, my permissions are set ok. Could be that I have UAC turned off.

Other than that, looks like a re-install is on the cards...

I had this.

Theres a thread on the EU board documenting how to sort it.

Keep UAC off, more hassle with it on.

Saying this, while I created a user account on my currently scramed machine to play lotro, of late - ie this week - I had been able to play it from the original account I setup on Vista.

does it need .net, the game for me does a hard reset without it, for winxp .net is an optional install, dont know about vista thou.
