Hi!
I don't know if I'm posting this in the correct sub forum so please move it if it's in the wrong place.

I recently installed League of Legends successfully on PlayOnMac.
Since I don't know how to write a script, I thought I would share what I did to make it work.

First of all I downloaded the Wine version 1.3.17-LeagueOfLegends by clicking Tools > Manage Wine versions.
Then I went into the manual installation by clicking "Install a non-listed program" on the Install window.
I selected all 3 checkboxes; "Use another version of wine", "Configure wine", "Install some libraries".
When I had to select which Wine version to use, I selected 1.3.17-LeagueOfLegends.
When I had to configure Wine, I changed the operating system to Windows 7.
When I had to install some libraries, I installed:
POL_Install_vcrun2005
POL_Install_ie6
POL_Install_d3dx9
POL_Install_AdobeAir
POL_Install_wininet
POL_Install_wintrust

POL_Install_directx9 (But I don't think this is required)

Then I downloaded the appropriate file;
North America:
http://l3cdn.riotgames.com/Installer/SingleFileInstall/LeagueOfLegendsBaseNA.exe
Europe West:
http://l3cdn.riotgames.com/Installer/SingleFileInstall/LeagueOfLegendsBaseEUW.exe
Europe Nordic and East:
http://l3cdn.riotgames.com/Installer/SingleFileInstall/LeagueOfLegendsBaseEUNE.exe

And I used that file as the installer for League of Legends.
So far, my game is applying patches so I haven't been able to test how/if it works, but it should work unless there's something wrong with AdobeAir (since the game uses Air to create the game windows).

I hope this can help someone!

Testing in PlayOnLinux...

Confirmed that the steps for installation work in PlayOnLinux on Linux Mint 12, using latest PlayOnLinux.

Still awaiting patching to test ingame.

I don't know anything about POL scripts yet, but I feel the one here could be adapted to work: http://www.playonlinux.com/repository/?script=781

A final POL script should definitely include server selection.

So far, can install and patch, but can't login. This was with 1.3.26-LeagueOfLegends.

EDIT: Seems to be stuck on "Retrieving data from server"

May be this issue, investigating.

Here is initial code for a custom script, which covers everything above.

So far, I can patch and get to login screen, still working out how to log in and play a game. Could use some guidance, since I am very new to PoL. Would be very interested in becoming a tester to get LoL to supported status.

Trying to get this running using a PoL shortcut, since this seems to resolve the issue I'm noticing with login on Linux. Could use some help, as I am only a beginner.

#!/bin/sh
export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine-lol"
cd "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/rads/system"
wine "rads_user_kernel.exe" run lol_launcher $(ls ../projects/lol_launcher/releases/) LoLLauncher.exe

Run the game in borderless mode instead of full screen. Worked for me.

Why not use existing script?
Install PlayOnLinux 4.1.x, then
Install button > Check "In testing" checkbox > Games > League of Legends

Using the given script install correctly the game, but an unsuspected issue have appeared, I can't select Brazil server since it's not shown in the region selection.

I tried to modify locale.conf, launcher and system.cfg to show the option but still that seems not to be effective.

any possible help ?

Same problem, but I still can't login here. The script above but some names/paths must have changed, instead I used the following to run it:

#!/bin/sh
export WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/LeagueOfLegends"
export WINE="$HOME/.PlayOnLinux/wine/linux-x86/1.5.18-LeagueOfLegends"
cd "$WINEPREFIX/drive_c/Riot Games/League of Legends/RADS/system"
${WINE}/bin/wine "rads_user_kernel.exe" run lol_launcher $(ls ../projects/lol_launcher/releases/ | tail -n 1) LoLLauncher.exe

But again, the login problem is not fixed by it ...

did anyone find a solution for the Brazil server issue?
petch Monday 3 June 2013 at 23:28

You can try this script that uses the official downloader:
https://raw.github.com/petchema/playonlinux/master/League%20Of%20Legends-pmb

It has its own share of issues, but it should allow you to select the brazilian server.

im sorry... could you show me how to add a script?...
petch Tuesday 4 June 2013 at 0:04

Save it in your computer, then, in PlayOnLinux menus,

    Tools > Run a local script

You'll get a warning that it's not signed, this is to be expected since it doesn't come from the official repository.
