    • Patiga 4 days, 10 hours ago 

      Can anyone confirm this working?
Tried it out (changing to virtual desktop is surprisingly messy).
Got the launcher working without any problems and the first ~2 times starting an actual game worked with the standard 800*600 setting. However, I've never managed to get  tried it out itpast the loading screen after those first attempts.
Any help is appreciated :)

  • tim4ik 1 month, 3 weeks ago 

    Hello! When I click on PLAY, the game error occurs. The window freezes, and I can not click on anything. Ubuntu 18.04., use NVidia driver. Can u help me? My email timi4693@gmail.com

  • blargathon 1 month, 3 weeks ago 

    The launcher is super buggy on Ubuntun 18.04.  It is regularly crashing, has layout problems, and generally misbehaves.  In particular, it tends to crash when matches are either found or during champion selection.  As you can imagine, this is a very bad time for that.  Not sure what is to be done, but there it is.

  • hotlunch363 1 month, 1 week ago 

    After league auto-updates itself, nothing shows and the game quits by itself before doing anything.

  • mmogsp 1 month, 1 week ago 

    authentication server error

  • SunQuiver 4 months ago 

    Every time I get invited to a group and accept my client crashes, reloads and comes back but it takes a long time to come back approx 35 seconds same happens when I load into a match and have to call my character it crashes and reloads again and I miss the banning of a character which leads to me being forced to dodge I've tried multiple times and tried to repair the client and reinstall it nothing is working to solve the problem I'm using Solus Budgie latest version

  • SoaringWings52 1 month, 4 weeks ago 

    I get stuck on the screen that says "Running League of Legends Installer. Please do not run the game until this script finishes installing." with a gray rectangle under it

  • sunny0 3 weeks, 4 days ago 

    Installed the game a few days ago from the Lutris site and it worked fine, but today not even the launcher will load with the same configuration. The only thing that changed recently was an update to Lutris this morning. I'm running opensuse tumbleweed.

    • bootlegiv 2 weeks ago 

      This still loops, corrupted files.
Doesn't work at all, while it works perfect for me on POL.

    • donissam 2 weeks, 1 day ago 

      ty so much @zemeus u save my day

    • drunkcat159 1 week, 5 days ago 

      Installer not working: https://ibb.co/iiytKz

  • Parzyal 2 weeks, 1 day ago 

    I already edited it so that it isn't stuck in the repair loop but now it just doesn't open, it closes automatically

  • homersimpsons 2 weeks, 1 day ago 

    I can't install the game (Game folder is empty after installation).
Distribution: Ubuntu 18.04
uname -r:  4.15.0-34-generic
architecture: amd64

Yesterday I had the infinite loop on "repair" so I removed the game, I also removed my old installation (done following https://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflinux/comments/5ukgur/a_revised_guide_for_installing_league_of_legends/) and removed winehq-staging and i386 architecture.

Now when I install the game it run the full process, but ~/Games/league-of-legends remais "empty": there are all the windows file but nothing related to "League Of Legends" folders. So launching the game gives me a "file not found"

If you need any details just ask me :) Thank you for this amazing work !

      *** TO FIX REPAIR LOOP WITH NEW UPDATE ***

Riot versions usually used hotfix##, new update uses hotfix-##.


To fix use a text editor to change "1.4.5-hotfix-01" to "1.4.5-hotfix01" in these files:

LOL/RADS/projects/league_client/managedfiles/0.0.0.163/Plugins/rcp-be-lol-inventory/description.json 
LOL/RADS/projects/league_client/managedfiles/0.0.0.163/Plugins/plugin-manifest.json 

When you start the league client, it will attempt to repair and overwrite the changes.
To stop this from happening open a terminal and use this command:

sudo chattr +i <filename>

This will need to be done with each file listed above, and will make them read only (so the league client can't undo our change).

    • zeusgrs 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      Many thanks, that fix my problem you are perfect !!!!

    • Faifate 5 days, 14 hours ago 

      la solución propuesta por zemeus me soluciono el problema, pero ahora ya regreso el bucle infinito del error y no se que hacer, por favor resuelvan el bug :(

  • zeusgrs 2 weeks, 3 days ago 

    After last update for 1 day lol work normaly, but today is not possible to run show a msg about corrupt files and start the repairing all the time, any hep about that?

    • 3xie 2 weeks, 3 days ago 

      same here. I haven't been able to enter the game, even after reinstalling, for 5 hours now. It's stuck at a repair loop.

    • Mondeaux 2 weeks, 3 days ago 

      The repair loop seems to be permanent.. reinstalling the game and updating Wine won't help either
They should not punish honest players with these "anti-cheat" measures... 
When will they notice that Lutris is harmless?

    • burnsdm 2 weeks, 3 days ago 

      repair loop here confirmed as well on linux mint 18.2

      this works thank you zemeus

    • EndCore 2 weeks, 3 days ago 

      Not working for me. Always shows a bash syntax error.

    • zemeus 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      What error do you get and when are you getting it?

    • Archivaldoexe 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      SORRY ZEMUS BUT WHICH filename?

    • jazzyspazglobal 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      That the fix didnt work for me. The launcher now starts, doesn't show anything and then closes. It does the same thing regardless of how I launch it (Desktop icon, Lutris, etc). Anything I could've missed?

    • ElvenWolf 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      @Archivaldoexe Your terminal needs to to be in the directory of the file .(LOLFolder/RADS/projects/league_client/managedfiles/0.0.0.163/Plugins)
sudo chattr +i plugin-manifest.json 
and
(LOLFolder/RADS/projects/league_client/managedfiles/0.0.0.163/Plugins/rcp-be-lol-inventory)
sudo chattr +i description.json

    • jazzyspazglobal 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      Yeah, I definitely changed it correctly. Before I made the changes to the files I was stuck in the loop. I'm pretty sure I correctly followed the instructions. But now it won't even give me the loop.

    • jazzyspazglobal 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      I launched lutris via command-line and I get an error:

/home/christophergambrell/Games/league-of-legends is not owned by you

Not sure what to do :/

    • jazzyspazglobal 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      Okay, sorry for all of the messages. I accidentally ran it with sudo, which is why that previous error occurred. Here is another error message when ran from command-line (no sudo) and running LoL. 

user.reg:850: Malformed value '"HDA ATI HDMI HDMI/DP,pc"=3 (js)"="disabled"'

    • kuanchi 2 weeks, 2 days ago 

      thanks zemeus this bug fixed
now i cannot reconnect to the game , when i trying i get  "System Error"
A critical error hac occurred and the process must be be terminated.
Would you like to create a crash dump to aid the develpopers in troubleshooting this issue? This may take up to 5 minutes.
NOTE: this process may appear unresponsive during this time

SOMEONE CAN HELP PLEASE :(

  • foxpulu 2 weeks, 2 days ago

      I can not access the directory I get the following

"chattr: The file or directory does not exist while trying to see the status of the file i
chattr: The file or directory does not exist while trying to see the status of the plugin-manifest.json file "

  • devilbeny 2 weeks, 1 day ago 

    the new patch need vcrun2017 added into the scripts

    • sneakeyboard 2 weeks ago 

      Game is working as of Sep 16, 2018.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you check the install script, the vcrun 2017 is listed as a dependency. Client and game runs as it did before the update.

I advise those with messy workarounds to consider deleting all files and reinstalling to avoid any issues. Sounds tedious but everything's fixed; know that the game restores your account settings so you don't have to setup anything anymore (i.e. sound, keybinds, etc. Like a cloud save file but for these settings.)

    • Mrtr 2 weeks ago 

      ı can't install the game.
when ı trying to install the game,getting error "Unknow color name SystemHiglights".
How can ı fix it?

    • bootlegiv 2 weeks ago 

      This still loops, corrupted files.
Doesn't work at all, while it works perfect for me on POL.

Everything was deleted as suggested and let the script do it's magic, but it didn't work at all.

    • NuGaGiChimSoRiRulNaeEotNunGa 1 week, 6 days ago 

      I installed vcrun2017 and changed the wine version to Windows 7. And I updated the game.
After updating the game, I changed the wine version to XP... then infinite loop was fixed.

  • TalivanD 2 weeks ago 

    broken link

  • selby 1 week, 5 days ago 

    Fresh install, initial patching fails: https://i.imgur.com/PGA2w1h.png . No relevant errors in Lutris log (tho it looks like Lutris just may have not captured them tbh): https://gist.github.com/selbyk/777c6143379186f78cd9319568596095#file-first_run-log

Subsequent runs tries to repair, but it fails as well: https://i.imgur.com/qcPYRoV.png

Looks like files may be failing to DL or decompress? https://gist.github.com/selbyk/777c6143379186f78cd9319568596095#file-subsequent_runs-log

Running Arch Linux.  Any ideas to try would be appreciated.

    • bootlegiv 1 week, 5 days ago 

      Fresh install, no looping error. Error occur when loading the game, prompts a critical error window and just closes the game without loading the game.

    • selby 1 week, 3 days ago 

      Updating to the latest kernel solved the issue for me

  • tsukamoto 1 week, 4 days ago

  • Zaroth 1 day, 12 hours ago 

    After finishing any game, the client stays frozen and crashes.

  • pawodpzz 1 day, 8 hours ago 

    I couldn't even install the game, but installing system-wide lib32-libldap and lib32-openal helped. Now launcher gets stuck at displaying LoL logo.
