A quick question...

Is there any specific reason why everything on the LotRO radar that came with the service displays as an unknown entity? Sure, the names pop up about half the time, but they're all showing as unknown according to the dot color. :p
Just thought I'd ask.

It was a quick port from Vanguard to LOTRO, so there will be a few problems with it, if you like you can fix them and send the new fixed version to WyvernX.

Grab 0.91 and it helps alot with the name caching. I had forgot to update the name cache on targeting. Ie if you get a unknown, targeting it should resolve the name and load a fresh copy into memory. It may still need tweaking.
You may have to delete LOTROExtreme.exe and run the Update.exe progarm to get the patch.

Let me restate this in another way.
Lotro loads in names, draws them to a bitmap, and shows that bitmap on the game screen. Then it unloads the name from memory. I have a caching routine that tries to catch all names that it loads in to use. 0.90 had a bug with the routine. 0.91 should be much better and far less unknown. If you get a unknown, you should be able to target it, and it should resolve.
