This is also happening to two friends of mine and is happening on both my computers. A month or two ago I managed to talk my phone company out of a $700 bill because I left the client on to download a 300mb file when I went to bed. This is the second time this has happened to me.

I've deleted all the files and started again countless times.Īnd to top it all off, half the time the client installer gets stuck in a downloading loop and chews up all my data. I've downloaded the client through both steam and the LOTRO website. dat file the log file says is the problem. I've been constantly getting the patchdll message. I've been trying for days now to install LOTRO after not playing for a year or two. These errors aren't happening straight away, and while other people reinstalling fixed their issues, it didn't fix mine.I don't really know if I'm looking for a solution here (although one that works would be welcome) or just a rant.

I've looked online but I can't find anything that fits the problem I'm experiencing. I've played so many MMORPGs in my life and honest to god none of them have been this difficult to install. I've spend so much time trying to download and install this game that at this point, I don't know if it's really worth the effort. It eventually auto retries and now I'm back to the same 404 error as before. I couldn't see any working advice besides reinstall or try it again with my anti-virus and firewall turned off so I redownloaded (via steam) the game again to get an E_FAIL error around the same time as the last HTTP 404 error (77% - 88% patched.

Not the case now - I've been wanting to play this with my boyfriend but we've both come across multiple different errors when installing/patching the game.įirst it was the high res issues, then I get this HTTP 404 error after downloading and patching a bunch of files. Something that kind of sucks is that I played this game years ago for a few hours and I didn't have any issues.
