Re: How can i fix my missing textures??

@eclipsdragon

Just do a repair - you likely have streaming launcher

Non-Streaming launcher - Log into the launcher but don't click Play. Check for small letters "ST" in the bottom left corner.
If this is NOT present, With the new launcher after login , select the username pulldown on the top right and select settings, then press repair.
 
Streaming launcher - If the letters "ST" is present, close the launcher, right mouse click on the game shortcut,
select open file location and delete the BitRaider folder. Then start the launcher

    thanks for the advise but it's not working...

    I've followed your steps on if the S.T is there and the S.T is there but as far as I can see there is no folder saying BitRaider and once I closed and opened my game the ship to the 3rd planet still wasn't there.

    I don't know if it helps but my version is 5.0.1 but nothing as far as I know has changed

    ☹️

    P.S it wont let me click repair on the game I can see the button but it can't detect any problems

    When using streaming the repair on the launcher doesnt work which is why there is 2 methods to repair

    Which OS and how was this installed ? 

    the bitraider folder by default should be located at the following locations 

    • For 32bit operating systems - C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic\BitRaider
    • For 64bit operating systems - C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic\BitRaider

    I installed  STOR  by going on the home page and clicking download. this is the link I used...

    http://www.swtor.com/

    after I clicked download this is the thing that popped up when downloading (it doesn't have downloading on because it is taken after my download)

    after it downloaded I started playing

    P.S I'm not sure what OS I used  I just click download and it started downloading

    can you provide a screen capture of that location ?

    You should in theory see the bitraider folder that is to be deleted , I have highlighted it below

    Do you have a game shortcut on the desktop ?

    The screenshot is just showing the setup in the download folder 

    Given that you can play the game it must be installed somewhere , you need to find that location and should be in your C drive

    I have to get going myself as its 2:15am here , I can check tommorow how you went

    Looking at the screenshot of windows explorer that should show the hard drives like C etc , they are not appearing

    Are you logged into an administrator account or a parental/guest account on windows ? is there any one else that logs into this system ?, it is likely their account may have the correct permissions to view the file locations.

    your right about having a parental account that one of my parents own but I still couldn't find the folder . all I found was the text witch is the message above this one.

    P.S I tried re-downloading the game to get the folder but the same thing happened again, there was no folder just a star wars setup

    PP.S could you send  me the link you used to download SWTOR it may be useful

    😃

    That text shows the game installing into the default location

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars - The Old Republic\

    That is where the bitraider folder will be to be deleted

    That location will be available on the administrator account that your parents have access too
