launcher keeps downloading patch even though I already have it.

@TundordSW

I do not know what to say to help at present

208 is normally a net issue and hence why you found a proxy helped.

If it persists in the game folders is a log folder with launcher logs , attaching the latest log for review would be handy.

See if it comes good otherwise will need to consider closely what is occurring

here are the logs

@TundordSW

The bitraider log was switching to audit for some reason, SSN is not showing corruption but it is having issues getting the manifest.

Ensure your not using a proxy of any kind at present

those 208 , 211 errors may be a net issue but they may also be Antivurs/Firewall caused

Remove and re-add the exception for launcher.exe to the exception lists

Ensure the game shortcut is running as administrator

ESET - disable protocol filtering

Kaperskey - disable scan secure connections

Nortons (Firewall) set exceptions to "Allow" instead of "Auto"

See if this helps at all at present

I think this log is more complete.

now my proxy is off and I didn't get an network error (and I already ensured its not caused by firewall/antivirus + running launcher as admin)

right now (and sense I posted here for the first time) I'm still patching. will update when its done. 

and again, after watching the launcher downloading about 20GB past 5 hours I got to log in to see "shadow of revan" loading screen. wasn't able to log on the server as I have the "wrong" version. restarted launcher, got my favorite 208 error (sure I have a network problem, its not like I just downloaded 20GB) 

this time I restarted my modem, got a one time security code, now downloading another 11GB. dont see how I will be able to play in this "Early access" or at any point tbh.
