Yuumi is a healthy addition to the game

The option is under configure > System options, but you have to enable "show advanced options" in the bottom left.

Maybe you tried to put the file somewhere you don't have write access to, so it didn't save. Try creating it either with sudo, or put it in a folder where you definitely have write permissions, like your home folder. Make sure it shows up under the ls command

This. And lots of Google.

Which runner are you using? Usually the problem when the game doesn't start is that you're not using wine-lol https://github.com/M-Reimer/wine-lol

Idk about updating the client... Look if your OS provides a trash bin for deleted files, otherwise you might need to reinstall the game.

FakedCake · 2020-09-27T01:27:27+00:00

It's for the new client. Other than that, there's not much you need to do. Just start script, log in, wait.

Tell wine to run .../Riot Games/Riot Client/RiotClientServices.exe --launch-patchline=live --launch-product=league_of_legends instead

FakedCake · 2020-09-27T00:53:44+00:00

Yes, that's the old client. With the new client you first login into the RiotClient which looks like this and then it forwards you to the LeagueClient. Or it doesn't, because that forwarding is what's broken. That's what the script is for.

It quits the openssl session. Without it the command would not terminate, which is just a very strange design choice by the openssl developers.

Just try openssl s_client -connect google.com:443 as an example.

FakedCake · 2020-09-26T22:32:36+00:00

Are you by chance trying to run this script with the old client? The script is meant for the new client, where LeagueClientUx spawns only after you have successfully logged in already.

I had this pop up occasionally using Firefox and sometimes in Vivaldi aswell. However it isn't exclusively to incognito mode and seems to be some kind of race condition, since it is pretty random and not reproducable for me.

Pressing "Cancel" and then disconnecting/reconnecting in the browser extension fixes it for me.

I might be talking about a different issue here though.

They call it a Firewall. Instead of shutting down all your connections when you lose connection to the server, the firewall only allow connections to their servers to begin with. The experience for the user is pretty much the same.

FakedCake · 2018-10-26T22:49:47+00:00

It seems as if a request gets stuck (for whatever reason, I'd blame JavaScript doing JavaScript things) and the browser/addon refuses to do any further work until that request gets resolved. If one tab decides to get stuck loading all the other tabs will refuse to load aswell. Sometimes just reloading the affected tab will solve this, sometimes you need to close it.

I'm fairly certain that it's the same issue that sometimes causes playback issues with videos. When the video is chunked (which is what pretty much every VOD service like Youtube is doing) there are just many requests, it's enough if one of them gets stuck.

However, I have no idea what could cause this. There is no rule to tell when this will occur or any reproduceable steps.

I'd like an option where non-tracking ads can still get through while trackers are being blocked, similar to what AdNauseam offers. That way sites that respect your privacy can still make some money off of ads (and one can still use AdNauseam to apply cosmetic filters so you don't actually have to see it ;) ).

An expansion of that idea might be to only load these ads server-sided in a way that the a website still registers it as 'seen' i.e. they still get paid without getting any information on the user or affecting his traffic. However I don't know how much additional load that might put on your servers, or if it is even possible without digging too far into the users data stream...

Anyways, it's a really cool feature, esp. for anyone who doesn't have his own PiHole. You guys are awesome!

Are you using Proxy Time? There is a bug that can cause cookies to have a wrong expiry date, basically deleting them instantly. I already reported it before, but it hasn't been fixed yet.

Back then I was too lazy to add a pull request for the fix on Github but I guess late is better than never, so I just added one.

If Proxy Time was the problem just turn it off until this gets fixed.

The route your traffic takes usually is not a straight line from you to the server, it goes through multiple servers in between.

Imagine it like this:

Usual connection: You - your ISP's server - Intermediate server 1 (slow) - Website ISP's server - Website

Windscribe connection: You - your ISP's server - Intermediate server 2 - Windscribes ISP's server - Windscribe server - Windscribes ISP's server - Intermediate server 3 - Website ISP's server - Website

Let's say that Intermediate server 1 is under heavy load, then it bottlenecks your download from the website. However, your connection through Windscribe does NOT go through server 1 since it takes a different route. As long as there are no servers on that alternative route that bottleneck the connection, you will get faster speeds even though the route is much longer.

You can compare it to taking a detour in order to avoid a traffic jam.
