is there a way to move the mini map in the top left ? or unlock it to move it I should say ??

[StrolltoMordor]

@Zeeebreee Yes. If you press "Ctrl + \" you will be able to move most of the UI elements around.

Ah, I got it. For some reason I have 2 Lotro folders: C: Doc's and Setts/ My Doc's/Lotro and C:Doc's and Setts/My Doc's/*my name*/Lotro.

I found the UI folder in the *my name*/Lotro.

I just copied the skins folder over into the other ui folder and logged back into the game and it works, but still thank you for posting this vid or i'll never even know you cound change the skins. I went with the Eorlings as my toon is from Rohan :)

kks I did what you said step by step - made a ui folder in the Lotro folder, made a skins folder in the ui folder. Saved and unziped the Eorlings Revisited and Gandalf - Navy (SoM) to the skins folder (so they have there folders) but when I go in to the game and click Current User Skin theres None. Thats all it says - None.

I'm on a F2p with just the basic game atm. Only been playing a few weeks.
