How to change the main menu

[jjmyosin]

If you're like me and you don't watch the games, youtube or patch release info and etc, then I will show you how to change it to something that you prefer
For those of you who don't know what I'm talking about, this is the main menu:


Now to change it you go to your install path, default is C:/Riot Games. You want to get to:
(X: /Riot Games/League of Legends/RADS/projects/ lol_air_client_config_na/releases/0.0.0.45/deploy/ lol.properties
Now open up lol.properties with notepad and you should see something like this:


Next, you want to change the link beside "LobbyLandingURL=" to the website of your choice. I personally chose LoL Esports | Season 3 because it matches well with the client, and I like to stay updated about things like the World Championships.
Once you change it the properties file should look like this:


Then save it, and restart your client.
Your new main menu should look better and include stuff that you're actually interested in .



Enjoy and remember to give a thanks if this helped you
Cheers!

Do we have to change back the URL if they update the game?

I don't believe so. It may be possible though depending on how big of an update it is.

Nah, It just depends on if they updated anything in that file or not.

Yeah you can use facebook. Just change the section I showed above to www.facebook.com or whatever you'd like and it'll show up as soon as you log in

Strange... if I change the link to YouTube I can watch videos just fine on the client. Did you change or click something else?

Strange... I have no why idea why it's causing problems for you. I'll take a look at it this weekend and let you know if I find a solution.
