Serious problem with the AH in Book 12

Dear players,

after today's patch the search auction house search is back up. Unfortunately it will only work for auctions created after the patch, so some auctions still will not show up until saturday morning, when the last auctions from this morning will run out. We are sorry for the inconvenience and wish you all the best of luck.

Regards,

Your Game Masters

Auction House

  • Rejoice! We returned auction string searching functionality.

March 13th, Book 12 Patch 1 Notes!

---------------------------------------------------------------
As some of us have noticed there is a search problem in Auction House. Items posted before the patch are still listed when a specific search is made, but items posted post-patch will no longer show up on any specific searches! Look like its a bug on EU servers, it doesn't appear on US servers.

We're aware of the issues with the Auction House. It seems you are still able to find items but not through the search function. For now, to find an item you will have to use the navigation (a pain I know!) Roll on old fashioned trading!

Will the Auction Hall search problem be fixed any time soon?
<[CM]Liquilla> We're currently looking to put a fix to the auction house in place between the first or second week of March. We understand the severity and the issues its causing for players.

This has to be one of the funniest bugs I've ever seen! And I really like it. Besides great screenshots this bug got some awesome comments:

Stilgaard - "What are YOU lookin at!?!?"
Nymphonic- You have GOT to be a guardian, getting hit in the head too many times!!!!

We would like to thank SiSL and alvinwongbk for these great screenshots!

Enjoy!

How to turn on the lights in lotro house?

Candles, torches, fireplaces and other housing light sources will only be capable of toggling effects on and off, not the actual light.
If you want to turn on the lights you can't be in decoration mode. Be close to the candles or whatever you want to light and hover you mouse cursor over it. You should get the circle with the hand in it cursor then just right click.

"We tend to avoid giving players control over light influences. Specifically, to avoid performance issues associated with lighting and also to avoid causing the light budgets for the spaces to blow out (which makes the space look worse, with light sources randomly turning on and off among other visual artifacts). Player-controlled light sources can also be a source of grief-play for the same above reasons".

Scenario

Outfits Taking Up Inventory Space?

NO! Equipping an item to an Outfit slot will still leave the item in your inventory, but you can save it at your house vault and log in all your alts and wear the outfits, you don't have to buy outfits for all your alts!!!. This will allow you to trade those items to other players, store them in your bank, etc., although items that bind will need to be bound to you before you can equip them into Outfit slots. You only need the items in your inventory at the time you equip them.

Lotro downloadable patch for Book 12

The downloadable patch for Book 12 is now available! This patch will update clients from Book 11 to Book 12. New players will still need to go through the normal patching process - this patch will only work for those whose clients are current as of today (February 11). It will not work for Roheryn.

The downloadable patch means you can download it and patch your client before the update goes live on the servers, saving you time when they come back up. It also means you can download the patch on a computer that you don't have LOTRO installed on (i.e. your work computer), transfer the patch to a disk or device, and then run it on the computer with a LOTRO client to update it. After you've updated your client, when the servers go live with Book 12 your client will apply the patch and update itself.

IMPORTANT NOTE: You should only use this downloadable patch if your LOTRO client is already patched up to BOOK 11!
This file will ONLY patch the North America/AU/NZ version of the LOTRO client. If you try to apply it to the EU version, you'll get an error message.
