Dungeons & Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited

[ajackson]

Unless I have missed something you are just being modest. The way I see it is that nobody could get this game to work if it wasn't for your pylotro loader. So I think you deserve all the credit you can get! (maybe you should have a god char ingame or something )

Getting LotRO working was a group effort of several people, SNy then produced a working command line launcher and I produced a GUI version, I tend to get all the praise when in truth without the initial grind working out how the login process worked and getting help from an unknown Turbine dev who opened up the patch function for us none of this would be possible. So I don't ming getting praise as long as the others who played a large part don't get ignored or forgotten.

And if you dont mind clerifying this for me: Is it possible to update the program (DDO) from the pylotro loader?

It should be, you might need to drop the patchclient.dll from LotRO in (but don't rename it), the patchclient.dll that DDO then provides does have the patching process exposed but it seems some people have been having problems since the Wine 1.2 rc releases, so that might be what is causing problems due to some odd regression. I advocate for Crossover Games so use that for LotRO, that is built on top of Wine 1.1.43 so if you can get a copy of Wine 1.1.43 you might have more joy and it would help confirm the issue is with the changes that have happened since that release.

I guess i didn't look into this good enough. I was under the (wrong) impression that this was a one man job. Offcourse the rest of the crew deserves credit too. I will see if i can find them when i have time. (Maybe you could pass on some of the praising in the meantime... Or if any of the develepors read this you should know that your work is greatly appreciated!)

Ok. thx for clarifying that. I will look into getting it all to work under ubuntu 10.04.

@upitnik
so i cant help you that much right now but if you can update the game from windows (maybe you could install it in vmplayer) I think you can play it. But as stated i will look into it.

Your welcome. Hope you enjoy Ubuntu.

Could you play the game in high res on the same computer with windows?

I cant play the game on high res either and i think i should be able to.

What Should I do? Thanks for the help.

Reading the sticky at the top helps.

Wine version, graphics card/driver, etc.

Looking at the error suggests Wine is trying to use more graphics memory than you have, did you manually set how much memory you have? If so did you enter the right amount, if not try setting how much you have as it could misreporting how much is available.
