Turbine LOTRO Dat File Defragmentation Tool

Thanks to a couple team members, we're making a public a command line tool to be able to address the internal dat file fragmentation (vs. external fragmentation which regular disk defragmenters address).

What this will do for you?

- Speed up game loads
- Speed up teleports
- Reduce hitching (not all hitching.... just load related hitches)

Granted if you were on an SSD or flash drive, the improvement will not be nearly as big as compared to the majority of folk still on mechanical disks.

A couple things to re-iterate from the KB:

(.NET Framework 2.0 required)

1. It's for LOTRO only. Please don't use it on DDO or AC.
2. It's brute force. Make sure to have enough disk space (have the equivalent to the largest dat file free on the disk )
3. We've done a bit of testing to release it to you all, but it is basically a programmer tool.
4. It's not a fast tool, it's effectively doing a massive file copy if it determines it needs to defragment a file.

I'd call out the specific devs for the kudos, but they don't have forum handles for me to single out. Thank the Game Platform team at Turbine. (Though for those that played in some of the beta points, +Akash is largely to thank).

evo ga tu je link

Zgodno, s obzirom koliko mi se loading time usporio u zadnje vrijeme... ali kada pokrenem defrag, nakon sto odradi 3-4 fajla baci mi gresku Runtime error... ....to terminate it in an unusual way...

ja sam ga isprobao prije tjedan dana otprilike, i mogu reći da sam zadovoljan, puno brže učitava igru kod prvog loada, i dosta je smanjio teleport iz regije u regiju i ulaženje izlaženje...

@durmitor
jesi probao pokrenuti preko command promta ?
Ja sam ga pokrenuo bez problema na win 7, danas ide test na thermitov komp win xp

probah obje varijante. i ja sam na xp, ajd mi javi kako ti je proslo tamo.

Meni sinoć uopće nije htio u igru, pa sam pokrenuo ovo, i igra je proradila . dakle meni ok

ja sma pokusao jucer pokrenit, krenulo je i samo stoji na kraju sam odustao budem pokusao ponovo
