Update 11, the new Launcher and ISBoxer

[Kaische]

The LOTRO Launcher no longer requires .net 1.1. You will notice several changes, especially during patching/updating. The new launcher also respects your default browser setting. It will no longer default to IE when opening links.

Because the new launcher doesn't use the file LauncherUserSettings.xml we have to do all steps again and i show you 2 ways to do so:

Run your character set, let the first launcher patch the game to Update 11 and after that click on the little arrow in the right corner of the launcher and in the General Tab uncheck "Retrieve updates automatically".
Now close launcher and edit the file "C:\Users\<username>\My Documents\UserPreferences.ini".
Change the line

Code:

allowmultipleinstances=false

to

Code:

allowmultipleinstances=true

save and restart your character set in ISBoxer or InnerSpace.

Repeat until fully logged in.


OR:

Create each file that ISBoxer uses as a virtual file for each of your characters manually in the directory C:\Users\<username>\My Documents\ with the content in the snipped below or use the attached file.
After that start your character set and let the launcher patch the missing parts.

As an example: i have a character named "Bimidi" and he uses the virtual file UserPreferences-Bimidi.ini.
So i copy the attachment to C:\Users\<username>\My Documents\ and rename this file to UserPreferences-Bimidi.ini.

Do this for each of your characters in your character set and then ... play.

I hope this little tutorial isn't that hard to understand, Turbine messed things really up this time

Thanks for the details, I'll get this built into ISBoxer ASAP

Oh, thanks... also the virtual file LauncherUserSettings.xml in ISBoxer is now redundant, the new launcher doesn't touch it

Now close launcher and edit the file "C:\Users\<username>\My Documents\UserPreferences.ini".

omfg, now why are they littering the My Documents folder instead of their folder under My Documents?! I have a feeling that's going to get patched ASAP...

I think this will be a bug.
TurbineInvoker.exe will also not work either with IS. You have to point to TurbineLauncher.exe

ISBoxer 41.1.513.2 should automatically handle the new UserPreferences.ini and correct the settings. The optional account name field for each Character will now also function for LOTRO, it will automatically fill in or correct the name in your saved launcher preferences file.

To update just go under ISBoxer's Help menu and select About ISBoxer. Then when it gives an Update link, click it

Inner Space development build 5835 includes additional LOTRO fixes including routing TurbineInvoker.exe to TurbineLauncher.exe, and Direct3D 11 fixes including a mouse broadcasting fix. If anyone would like to try this build, right click IS and select Patcher, check "Download development (test) patches" then close and restart Inner Space.

I expect to be pushing this build live within 24 hours, as these fixes are also packaged with other compatibility and stability fixes

This worked like a charm! Thanks guys
BTW I am back and ready to roll the multibox again...
Bringing some friends with me... now, where was that invite friends thing...?
