Patcher 33% -patch notes- help please

BananaJamma··1 votes·749 views

i have listed the files i have found with the patcher that list the word "wrong", i have been playing this game for 4 months off of a cellphones internet tether because i live in the woods and its the most convenient method for myself. anyway, i can play this game with 60-80ms, as of 3 or so patches ago the game has stopped updating at 33%. the only way ive found to fix this is to re-install the game completely, but this is becoming too pricey for me and my dataplan. im wondering if there's a way i can manually install the patch instead of the Patcher, that way i dont need to use so much data.

  1. go to the riot games file
  2. open the folder marked league of legends
  3. open the folder marked RADS
  4. open the folder marked Projects
  5. open the folder marked lol_launcher
  6. open the folder marked releases
  7. open the folder of the most recent patch (IE 0.0.0.234) and copy the S_OK file
  8. go back to where u found the folder marked lol_launcher, then open every other folder in that same menu (lol_air_client, all the way down to lol_patcher)
  9. open the folder marked releases
  10. open the folder of all patches on there.
  11. PASTE the S_OK file into each one of these as it was in the patch folder for lol_launcher.

once you complete that (one will likely be missing the S_OK file and if not, it should still work) u should be able to launch league! let me know if this works because its worked for me on several different occasions. If this works for you please paste it in other posts relating to this issue.

This worked perfectly for me

This method worked for me. Thank you. Perhaps league should post these instructions for others who have this issue

pass it forward! If you see sum1 else with this issue quote that for them.

GRANDMASTA is who I quoted don't forget. As far as I know he deserves the credit. I found these instructions first thing in the morning and that made it so this issue wasted no more than 5 mins of my life

Well, I've had the same problem, and I followed the instructions, my problem though seems to be that as soon as I open the launcher, I get an error message and the S_OK file deletes itself from the releases folder in the lol_game_client folder, specifically 0.0.1.17. Also, while it is attempting to update, it will get to about 16 files scanned, and I can briefly see the S_OK file pop in an out very fast. Any help?

yikes I havent heard that one. Once I used the fix, my launcher acted as though I had already finished the update and I was able to play. The very next time I closed and relaunched LoL I got a msg that something had been corrupted and was being fixed. Since that the game has worked perfectly for me. One thing I left out of the fix that I did was to replace the file where it already exists with the one I copied from the recent patch. So I not only added that file where it was missing(in the places stated) but I also replaced the existing file if there was one to be found, instead of just adding a second version.

My guess, from the idiot that is me, is that the fix is imperfect and that for whatever reason my game was able to correct its mistakes while yours is not. I can only give you advice of what I would do in your shoes.

I would uninstall/reinstall 1st. Riot may have put out a fix already and it will all go smoothly. If you run into the same problem again I suggest you let the installer sit at 33% for a solid 15 mins before you close and retry the fix. When you retry the fix make sure and go to every location in the instructions and not only add the file where it is missing but also replace the existing one where it exists.

My guess(being forced to make one) is that maybe the way you carried out the fix was the problem. The way I did it may have been just enough better that while it was still imperfect the game was able to figure out how to correct my mistakes while yours is not.

Wish I was more tech savvy and good luck!
