Patch 5.24 Never loads me into game. Mac El Capitan 10.11.2 Black Screen

Kàelâthòs··3 votes·4,648 views

Hey guys, I'm having a problem with my client loading me into game. Right before patch 5.24 came out, I closed the client while loading into a custom game to help speed things up with starting a new custom game for my friends. After that, it would never let me load into the game itself. Logging on speeds were fast as always, could move around the client fine, had no problems till after champ select when the gong sounds and the loading screen WOULD appear. Instead of the loading screen, I get a completely black screen that never loads in. I can see and move my courser, and I can minimize the black screen, and click on the League of Legends button (the one for currently running program) and open up the black screen again, but it won't load me into the game. Then patch 5.24 came out, and my loading times with logging into chat and all that vary from normal speed to drastically slow. Also, every now and then, it won't load me into the store and sometimes when I click any button it'll freeze and say collecting data from server. After a few moments it'll fix itself, but everything moves really slow. Not all the time, just occasionally. BUT the loading me into a game problem with the black screen still persists. Any idea as to whats going on? Am I the only one having this problem? Is it just with mac clients or is there something going on? I would really like some feedback and your thoughts guys!! Really wanna get back to playing and hope this problem will resolve somehow! I've linked the video of me showing/explaining my problem. Plz help!! P.S. I've reinstalled the game 3 times, used the fix button through the client, tried peer to peer, and nothing is helping. This problem has me scratching my head haha

I fixed the problem by hitting the return/enter key many times when you get to the black screen.

annnnnd nvm lol even though pressing enter will get me into the game and title work fine, i'm now lucky to even log in :( half the time it'll sit there saying "logging in, please wait" and nothing will ever happen. When I do manage to log in, half the time it never connect me to chat services. And if I'm just lucky enough to get into chat services, the "Unknown specified error has accused" window appears like 10 times over itself each time I try to click a button :( have already reinstalled the game 3 times, not exactly feeling like I wanna do it again haha RIOT, PLZ HELP

Hey GrandMasterJace,

i tried your DNS Settings, and it WORKS for ME !!!!! - The Loading Screen appears, and i can play

  • Thank you very much.

But i'am confused, why i have to Configure DNS Servers !!. Why is this necessary? If every Game get an Update and we have to Configure our Network Settings thats not within the meaning of the user. And we dont get any help from Riot, the Forum have a lot of threads about this BUG, but no help from RIOT.

P.S i Play on the EUW Server (forget to say in my last Post)

Kind regards

Mike

Ah the DNS thingy just makes it less laggy for me and I got the DNS instruction from RIOT a long time ago. I don't know if the DNS thingy works for EUW servers. But thanks, no problem!
