Ok, so I downloaded the game from https://www.lotro-europe.com and
started the installation with CrossTie.
Everything worked fine until the "Instaling Lord of the rings
online" part.
The downloader opens but just says "instaling pando media booster"
and nothing happens and now it has been going for hours!
What is worng, any ideas? (I have a Mac os x)
For Europe, you cannot use the PBM installer. It is "set" to use the NA servers.
When the CrossTie installer loads, on the second line "Will download the installer from..." click on the "right pointy."
(or click edit.)
This will expose a list of things it finds on your desktop that might be LOTRO installers,
a "Choose Installer File" and a "Choose Installer Folder entries.
If the Europe download file is on your desktop, it should show up as something like "lotrostandard.exe"
(which is the NA lo-rez installer). Click on that if it is the correct file you previously downloaded.
If that file is not visible, click "Choose Installer File" and select where ever your download is located.
The CrossTie installer will change to read something like "Will install from <user> > Desktop > <filename>
Then click "done" on the right side of that line.
Then click "install" at the bottom of the CrossTie Installer Window and you should be good to go.
