Sometimes things don't work quite as intended. A game crashes, or lags, or just behaves in a way that makes no sense. While a quick restart can resolve a lot of these problems, some cases require a more in-depth look.
That's where logs come in.
When to Pull Logs
You should only be pulling and attaching logs to your ticket if directed to do so by player support! We know it's a bit of a process, so we won't ask for logs until more traditional avenues have been exhausted. Thank you!
Where are the logs?
Game logs are stored in different locations depending on the game. Check the chart below to find out where the logs for your particular title live and which ones we need to help you.
Game | Location | Log |
---|---|---|
Teamfight Tactics Mobile |
Android/data/com/riotgames.tftmobile |
R3Dlog.txt (the most recent, or the one associated with the problem) If requested by the gameteam, pull League_PerfDump.rpd as well |
Legends of Runeterra | Storage/Android/data/ com.riotgames.legendsofruneterra/files | All recent logs associated with the problem |
League of Legends: Wild Rift | Android/data/com.riotgames.league.wildrift | Pull the Files folder if possible. Otherwise, get the Logs folder inside of it. |
Note: If the game you're having issues with is not listed, then we are not currently pulling logs for that title.
How do I get to the logs?
