so my question is
is it possible to change that high cpu intensive stuff on the map /champ and change it to like just a black image?(in my opinion simple black > 2 milion colors on the map) its like switch from verry low setings to even lower

is it possible? just like we did to the start image(that cpu intensive when you login or from the main page on league of legends client the one with the start boton(after you loged in)

thanks and sorry for bad english,

How about the colorblind mode? Have you tried that?

i'm not talking about that man
just want to know if it is possible to remove some things from the LOL client so it makes less cpu intensive so you can open more vmware machines

something on the line that you can only see your champ and the rest black
that will make your vmware lol client less lag and is it possible to remove some detailes of the map/champ?

Yes that certainly is possible.

Step 1:
Go here

Code:

C:\<map>\<map>\League of Legends\rads\projects\lol_game_client\filearchives

Step 2: Browse in the version - and find the "Map" folders. Focus on

Code:

 
0.0.0.43; 0.0.0.25; 0.0.0.40; 0.0.0.36 and 0.0.0.37

in that order (they are sorted from biggest to smallest map),

Step 3:
Mess around! Try to replace the files with an empty file - so if you have AwesomeLolGraphics.xyz rename that to AwesomeLolGraphics.xyz.bak (backup) and create an empty file named AwesomeLolGraphics.xyz (the same as the original).

Step 4: Now log in, and check out the effect.

Optional, tho highly recommended:
Step5: Post your results in a topic over here on Epvp, and share what you've found!

Edit:

Code:

 C:\<map>\<map>\League of Legends\rads\projects\lol_game_client\filearchives\0.0.0.43\Archive_14198048.raf.dat

I've replaced this file with a dummy - and that crashes LoL. That means, you need some sort of access to the file, to see what is necessary to run a game and what is fancy-textures (to take out the latter). There are some tools to view unknown archive's but that is Reverse-engineering stuff, you'd have to dig in by yourself.
