Go to the directory that you installed LoL in. Go to RiotGames -> RADS -> solutions -> lol_game_client_sln -> releases -> 0.0.0.60 (or whatever the most recent one is) -> deploy -> DATA -> CFG and open the file game in Notepad. Under "Windowed=1" (or "Windowed=0" if you don't have League of Legends currently set to windowed mode) make a new line and put "BorderlessWindow=1". I tried this and got an issue where I couldn't make windows appear on top of LoL. It Alt-Tabbed really smoothly but the client would always be on top for some reason. Has this happened to anyone else?
I can't seem to reproduce this although I have a few ideas. Do you mind going to the file game.ini and copy-paste the contents of it into a spoiler tag?

Amazing moonbear, #1 dude
question is there anyway to play on my phone running android?
Theoretically, it would be. But you'd have to modify the client and figure out how to play without a mouse haha.
One a related note, there is an andrioid application that I have learnt about. I don't have an Andriod phone so haven't tested it. But it seems useful. This application will allow you to see the lateset LoL News Feed, Champion Rotation, Tribunal and more. The Official Thread is found here. If anyone tries this, please tell me about what it's like.

I just realized: everytime Ryze uses his Q my game freezes, shuts itself down a couple of seconds later and makes me rage times infinity. I have a 13'' MacBook Pro early 2011 and have never experienced similar issues. And it seriously only happens whenever Ryze Qs. Kinda dumb. Anyone knows how to solve that little issue?

I'm afraid this is something I can't help you with. You will have to submit a support ticket to Riot and include your game logs with it.

MORE UPDATES!
MoonBear is now a Wrenchperson so feel free to message me in LiquidParty if I'm online.
Also, good news for Linux users! There is a way to get LoL running on your machine.

Update: There is a method to access LoL chat from outside the client (say, from an iPhone) but I can not vouch that this is a stable (or even allowed) method right now. More news at 6 (not literally).

I have a problem with LoL that is rendering me unable to play.
During the game I get temporary freezes that can last between 1-10 seconds, most commonly in the 1-2 second range.
My FPS is stable as is my latency; I can see everything going on around me, I just can't control my character in any way shape or form.
I posted on the LoL forums, they said that they're aware of the issue (apparently it's common for canada/alaska) and that the only thing they've had moderate success with with is switching to a public dns server.
I've done that and although it cuts down on the amount of freezes it still sucks to stop mid fight and only be able to watch other people kill me.
If anyone has had a similar experience or any ideas as to what's going on i'd love some help. Getting my ass kicked on nightmare in D2 is fun and super nostalgic but i'd really like to play some LoL.
Edit: This only happens for LoL

Because of the fact the servers always have to tell you what is going on, I'm tempted to say that maybe it's just Canadian internet that peters out when there's a massive amount of packets from the server that arrive during a teamfight. But that feels like a cop-out.
Have a read of this article and see if any of the information there is relevant. If not, tell me and I'll have a think over this.

I've gone through most of the common ones on that page like restarting router/modem, disabling firewalls etc
I won't be using a wired connection anytime soon but I don't think that's the issue, when i checked for packet loss with google i had 186/187 packets sent and received, so less than 1% loss.
![[image loading]](http://www.speedtest.net/result/1421684583.png)
I'm pretty sure my internet speed isn't the problem since i've heard of people running LoL fine with slower speeds.
And i've already used the berkeley network analyzer and posted in the LoL Help and Support forums. The only thing I remember that was bad on that test was packet loss, and I think that's just because berkeley is so far away. When I ran the test multiple times the packet loss would fluctuate between 0-7%.
This started happening after my ISP replaced my router and modem (they were very old) with a 2 in 1 router/modem combo. My internet connection would drop randomly for 5-10 minutes a couple times a day (TV would be toast along with it, on the old rotuer/modem) and that doesn't happen anymore. I'll edit this post after I finish my breakfast with the router brand/model.
Actiontec V1000H
I think this is made specifically for telus because the firmware is insanely restrictive.

Hm. Your internet seems fine. But since you mention it only started happening after you for the new modem+router I can't discount that possibility. Maybe it's the firmware that's playing up with the LoL Client?
I think your best bet is just sending in a Support Ticket to Riot with the stuff you told me and see what they say. There have been issues with Canadians having difficulty with LoL before so they might know what's up. Could be a Telus specific thing. You can tell them that your friendly Wrenchy is also kinda not sure what to do and you tried the regular stuff (like powercycling your router). Sorry I couldn't help you. >.<
Btw, you might want to erase the Netlog stuff. I could probably track down where you live with that IP info. ^^;

Customer Support Tickers should be responded to within 2-3 days now. It's a lot better than before.
No problem. Just Wrenching along here.

UPDATE: How to play on NA/EU if you are from SEA and the Launcher will not let you. Many thanks to nyxnyxnyx.

I get the black terrain bug fairly often.
+ Show Spoiler +
I'm able to fix it by restarting my computer, which is annoying to do when I am in the middle of a game. Any suggestions?
|
Straight outta Johto18973 Posts
Hm. Several suggestions here.
- Firstly, check your Video Card Drivers are up to date.
- Secondly, maybe turn down some of the graphic settings in LoL. Sometimes if you do 'Fast Terrain' it can mess up the graphics.
- If that doesn't work, try repairing your files. You can do this by going to the PvP Client Launcher (the one with the big PLAY button), clicking on the gear icon in the top right, and choosing repair.
- And if all of that still doesn't help, come back and tell me. Maybe add some details about your game settings and stuff and I'll see what I can do.

Yes. You will need an account for each server you play on. Currently there is no way to transfer accounts between servers.
there is now though. you can switch for the first time from EU to Nordic East for example. the other times it will cost Riot Points

I get a five second lag every five minutes or so, most of the time it doesn't matter but it happens enough that it usually matters every match. Is it because my computer or internet? It's very different from lag I've had in other games because it happens on a regular basis and the rest of the match the game runs smoothly.

Since I don't know what your internet or machine is like, I can't comment on what it could be. It might be your internet unable to handle a sudden surge in data packets from the server, or it could be your computer not being able to cope with it.
What settings do you play on, your machine specs, and can you do a speedtest and check what kind of interet you have?

Well not sure what info is needed but
Online speed check

Hm. They seem fine. Are you playing LoL on max settings? That might cause problems. Also, what programs are normally running in the background when you play LoL? If you're downloading stuff it might cause problems if the client suddenly needs to request a lot of packets from the servers.
