Hi everyone,

I've downloaded the PBE client in the .zip, and extracted it. Ran it like it's supposed too, but it keeps running the original client. I don't think it's recognizing the RADS folder.

What's going on?
Thanks!

First, make sure your Adobe Air client is up to date.

Then try this solution:
- Go to this folder in your PBE directory: LOLPBE\RADS\projects\lol_air_client\releases\0.0.0 .142\
- Delete releasemanifest and S_OK
- Go into the deploy folder in that same directory
- In there, delete the lib, logs, META-INF, and mod folders
- Also delete LolClient.exe, LolClient.swf, and locale.properties
- Repatch

Your LOLPBE folder should look like the attachment below. Note that LOLPBE and the normal server are in different folders. Try right-clicking lol.launcher and running as admin

Thanks for the quick reply.

My Adobe Air client is up to date, yet it's still not working.
I've done what you said, but now it won't even load past the "League of Legends" title image. Yes, I've tried running it as administrator. What's up with it now? Also, instead of releases\0.0.0.142\, my version appears as \0.0.0.9\, though I just downloaded it right now.

Also some of the folders you mentioned to delete weren't there.

The only other thing I can think of right now is to run lol.launcher.admin; and the version number could be different for everyone. It was an old solution that I dug up and it still works for some people. If all else fails you can redownload here: http://l3cdn.riotgames.com/PBE/LOLPBE.zip
