People ask "What was PC gaming like in the 90s and early 2000s." THIS THIS RIGHT HERE IS WHAT PC GAMING WAS LIKE! STRUGGLING FOR 4 DAYS TO GET A 10 MB PATCH!!!!!!!!!! Thank you for this patch Ok, so, how do I install these files manually?
Ok so I clearly did something wrong or a file is somehow corrupted. The launcher STILL wants to try to install the files to update it. It's stuck on 8.355m Is there like an installation script I should delete first?
ok clearly there are some temporary internet files I need to delete that are not being purged from the system. Where does the launcher store temporary download files? Something has become corrupted.
I downloaded the full files and am currently in game. Thank you, Oath, for singlehandedly doing what DBG and its CDN apparently could not.
Ok so here's my problem. I finally got the launcher to work, it downloaded 8.355M of the patch file. Then it broke. I tried to finish patching it by downloading the files and manually installing them myself. BUT it keeps saying I am at 8.355M and it won't launch. Tried installing and uninstalling, tried deleting all the temporary data I could find... somehow there are artifacts on my system and something is corrupted. How do I fix this to manually patch the game and or finish normally patching the game so I can play?
Very sorry for this followup post. I just realized this messageboard does NOT allow me to delete my own posts. Ignore my post above the game FINALLY downloaded - at the same rate as my old 2400 baud modem. I won't lie, it feels like I'm downloading and installing everquest for the first time - just like back in 1999. Also - anyone here wanna chill with me on stream some time? I have no idea how to get back into the game, all the menus have changed since 2004. LOL twitch.tv/ninjanezumi I will likely try to stream sometime tomorrow and tomorrow night.
