Once I got the zip file I extracted it all to another folder, ran the setup, got an error about DirectX (and so had to get a microsoft patch for that). Ran the setup again and got Warhammer Beta shortcut on the desktop, which just featured a simplistic login menu that would always fail to authenticate. Last night the simplified login menu was changed to a more elaborate one (but still authentication would fail). Within the past hour login would work, but the Patch Set error would pop up. Does this experience jive with anyone else? Did you get this client when OB keys went out , or was it a few days before? Check if it's a different file you're Dl'ing now.

Originally posted by grunty For me the zip file was 9.33 GB (10,029,322,375 bytes) in size. I don't have a Warhammer Online Beta_FP directory (did you name that yourself or was that somehow automatic for you?), but the folder after extracting and installing is 25.1 GB (26,964,374,698 bytes). |

1) I downloaded the preload beta file on the 5th - it was 9.34GB 2) After the download completed, the the download manager decrypted the file. The end result was a folder called "WarhammerOnline_Beta_encr". This folder contained 3 primary subfolders and a number of files. 3) I re-named the folder "WAR" and moved it to the directory of my choice (D:\Games, for example). 4) I ran setup.exe, which "installed" WAR on my PC (it mostly just creates the registry keys , since the entire game was "pre-loaded", unlike other games where you download a setup.exe that creates the directory structure and unpacks the files). 5) Started patching this morning - up to 20% right now. ~Ripper

curious how many of you are not from NA but downloaded the game from a NA site? If thats the case, then thats your problem. The patcher is set up differently on NA and EU. GOA handles the EU beta, not Mythic. To fix this, you'll need someone with a working version of the EU version to post their patch.cfg and change a few lines. This is a sample of the NA patch.cfg. I'll bold the lines that I know will not work with an EU version. There may be more, im just showing you where the issue may lie. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- <PatchConfig> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you ARE from NA and downloaded the file from a NA mythic partner, try deleting "world.mvp" and "art.mvp" and repatching. |
