After browsing through the forum I couldn't find a definite guide to the installation.
Run the "Install Disk" set to install LOTRO
Game installs and finishes by asking if you want to run now, reply no.
Copy the 7Zip files across into your install folder
Select "unzip here" and keep the settings to "overwrite" if the files exist.
Click on the LOTRO shortcut to start the program.
The load screen starts and the update box appears.
First, your "Programs" get checked then you are prompted to update.
This update phase uses under 100mb
You are then prompted to restart the application and the process starts again.
The "Programs" is updated one more time but only updates under 1mb.
The "Game Data" is then updated
The first update phase used 140mb (240mb total)
Second update phase used about 100mb (340mb total)
I progress to a screen where I can enter my login details...
Then a message pops up to say the program has to be restarted after last update...
One more update phase started, the manual looks like the biggest file downloaded
Just before you think you're at a point to start, another update starts, and the file count is over 4800 files to be updated.
Finished the update, it turned out to be the last. 600mb (950mb total)
Now to create a character. What do you guys need?
