Lotropolis guys (here: http://www.lotropolis.com/index.php?topic=546.0) are sharing with us With the new release of Shores of Evendim there is a lot of new stuff with the music system. Here is the basic steps to use the new music system and play prewritten songs.here is the basic steps to use the new music system and play prewritten songs.Step 1: First go to ...My DocumentsThe Lord of the Rings OnlineMusic and make sure that the Music folder exists. If the music folder is not there, don't panic. Just create a new folder and name it Music. This will be the folder that you put all the prewritten music.Step 2: All the files that are readable by lotro are written in ABC format. If you don't know what that is, google it or check out the official ABC website here: http://www.walshaw.plus.com/abc/. To create a ABC file either open up a text document or download a ABC editing program such as Mid2Abc at http://claremusic.tripod.com/music.htm.Step 3: Either write the ABC language or just paste in the musical piece you collected into the text file (or whatever you are using). Then save it as songname.abc (or whatever you want to name your song, just keep it short as you will have to write this out every time you want to play the song and make sure you save it as .abc) in the ...My DocumentsThe Lord of the Rings OnlineMusic.Step 4: Finally, when you are in game, start playing music just like you would any other time with the /music. Then just type /play songname.abc (or whatever you named your song). Then your character will began playing the tune you prepared in advance.A good resource to check out is the official lotro forum http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?t=40311 where they have started a nice collection of ABC format tunes.If you have anymore questions or tips don't hesitate to post...(You can also convert midi song files to abc, but its a little more complicated...I will try to post something on that sometime in the future or someone else can try to tackle that monster)

Turbine is going to introduce next big LotRO update



Turbine has offered first details on the next big content update for Lord of the Rings Online, including the news that a new gameplay type is to be introduced in Book 10. Exec producer tells CVG about Book 10 and reveals a new gameplay element to be introduced.Prising details from the mouth of executive producer Jeffrey Steefel recently in an interview, we (ComputerandVideoGames.com) were told, "...Amarthiel, who is this new character that we've introduced who is in search of a powerful ring - that's a big part of Book 10. There's not going to be a new region in Book 10 but the whole city of Annъminas will be opened up, and a lot more things will be happening there."And then there's some new type of gameplay that players haven't been able to do yet that they'll be able to do in Book 10."Advertisement:Sadly, Steefel wouldn't elaborate further, leaving us scratching heads and wondering what the new type of gameplay could be. Nor would he commit to a release date for Book 10 - "I don't want to get too specific because whatever date I pick someone will hold me to it for the rest of my life."However, he did promise that LotRO players "should expect to see multiple updates in a year, separate from expansion packs - just more content for their subscription."More: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=166611
