Quote:If you have the hash prob, and have the EU-Beta client, you can copy the file "all.js" in
LOTRO\browser\greprefs\ to the respective path of the client you are trying to patch. That will fix it.

Patching up took about 10 mins from there.

Servers are still down though, no need for hurry. Good thing, the forums are slow but loading again.

Good luck!

(Sorry Kai... didn't come across it any sooner)

Edit: For those that don't have the beta: I attached the file from my patched install.

That seems to have done the trick, thanks. +1 rep.

The anti lotro players will be in their element atm. Has anyone actually got in game and playing?

You need to restart computer after installing DirectX to get it affect x) ...newest version of DirectX 9.0c is (Jun 10) btw.

About the hash problem, i confirmed earlier that this works
