Are you using win 7 or xp in your wine? Pretty sure that's the problem

Sorry, not trying to spam, I am new here and I don't really know how to edit my posts. I ran a couple of tests with wininet and compatibility. So with the XP verison you do have to have wininet (builtin), else the game wouldn't launch. I also tested this with win 7 and 8 and got the same results..weird.

So LoL isn't running at all with our without wininet?
Don't worry about spam, I will approve your posts.... they go to a moderation queue first, then I approve them. Also, you can't edit your own posts until you have enough posts... maybe 15 or so?

Valdiz777 · Jul 21, 2014

@omraf, don't worry, keep using xp.
@booman, thanks! and yeah mine doesn't work without wininet...weird right?

Been listening in, I had my out of game store working on Friday, I have tinkered without finding a fix. Do we have any clue why the store broke yet? The WineHq guys seem to think the best solution is to simply ignore certain types of textures and objects all together when they patch wine... I think. Thoughts?

They also apparently know about the Windows7 no longer working but XP does, my guess is that this is related. (Shop worked with windows 7 but not with xp compatability, now that the launcher fails without xp, we don't have the store again.)

Valdiz777 · Jul 22, 2014

Yeah I have no idea what next to do abt the shop

Still black screen?
The only thing I can think of is starting over one more time.
It LoL still stops at a black screen then I am at a loss.
How long did you wait at the black screen?
I remember loading a game could take a while, but can you even get to the hero select screen?

yes black screen again on Suse 13.1 64bit

Did you guys try the TuxLoL patching?
I found that it fixes the store beautifully, but if League of Legends gets an update, you have to apply the TuxLoL patch again.

Post you debug output in our PlayOnLinux forum please.
I'll take a look and see if there is anything significant in it. Make sure to paste the entire debug from when you launched the client/game

KamradKomoroski · Jul 25, 2014

The in game shop is fine, the out of game store has problems. I have tried appling tuxlol a few times, it think there is something they've done with the store recently. The most recent version of wine apparently has improved cookie and crypto support, would it be worth it to investigate running on the more recent dev version of wine?

booman · Jul 26, 2014

Strange, I didn't even know there was a difference. I always get a crash from either shop, but the LoLtux fixed it for me. So, not sure at this point. Keep checking in at the PlayOnLinux website and WineHQ's
Thats where I find the most solutions to games

Hey i was wondering about the Wine version 1.7.18-CS-0.8-f1cf438
i tried that version, just start up league and get into a custom game, i was on constant 90 FPS, and it did not decrease no matter what i did, however when i tried opening up the league shop it crashed.

i was wondering if you knew any way to fix that ? because that wine version seems to increase the performance by a lot.
Cheers

booman · Jul 28, 2014

I'm not familiar with that version of Wine. Sounds like it might be a good choice for performance. Just make sure to add the Tuxlol patch to fix the store.
It has been reported that Tuxlol doesn't fix the in-game and out-game stores

SimpleSign · Aug 2, 2014

TuxLol did fix the ingame shop, thanks
and the FPS is amazing, the lowest i have seen is 50-60 otherwise its around 80-100 at all times.

booman · Aug 3, 2014

Awesome! Thanks for posting that it works now

Valdiz777 · Aug 9, 2014

OK so I went ham again and decided to destory everything and start from scratch in an attempt to fix the out of game store bug with a patch a made...sadly I failed in that aspect but I learned a lot about the current system and can now contribute something to this post that will be not only valuable but easier than my original post.

wine:1.7.18-CS-0.8-f1cf438

-League of legends-
Patch: 4.13
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1st modification to the booman post: Wine version
Pro: league of legends performance is incredible, it fixes the in-game store problem, fps issues, alt-tabbing issues
Con: out of game (Skin store etc) is still broken--I am still working on fixing this I promise :/
2nd modification: Windows version
Windows XP
3rd modification: Libraries

Adobe Air
ATI_BLACK-SCREEN_FIX
corefonts
d3dx10
POL_install_d3dx11
POL_install_d3dx9
POL_install_directx9
POL_install_gecko
POL_install_internet-explorer-8
POL_install_tahoma
POL_install_vcrun2005
POL_install_vcrun2008
POL_install_winhttp
POL_install_wininet
POL_install_wintrust

Possible bug: directx9 and sometimes ie8 will not completely install. So after you install league and before you run the client:
a. You will have to go back and use terminal to run: winetricks --force directx9 then winetricks --force ie8
b. Go back to wine configuration and change your 1. wininet to builtin, native 2. dnsapi to builtin, native

4th modification: while on league, select borderless instead of fullscreen, this will allow you to alt-tab as freely as possible without bugging you out in game

If you do this, with the current patch and with this wine version you wont need to bypass with dbghelp, tuxlol patch or any of my video card witchcrafting

Currently, my fps is in the +60 range ^_^ and I experience no lags... much better than when I had my windows

Whence again I hope this helps anyone,
Cheers

PS. I feel very confident in helping other people encountering run-time errors with other wine versions, I have fought them all successfully this weekend so fire away with your questions--make sure oyu have your debug logs xD

Valdiz777 · Aug 9, 2014

still need to use tuxlol to patch...my bad! (forgot to test in aram)

booman · Aug 9, 2014

Thanks for all the details in your reports Valdiz777!
Yeah, the TuxLoL patch fixes the in-game store, but apparently not the out-of-game store.
League of Legends always has some kind of problem with Wine, specially when they patch the game.
This is one game that would make the Linux community very happy if there was a Linux client.

Valdiz777 · Aug 9, 2014

I completely agree. They gave mac user a client we need one too :/
