Lots of bugs

Ok this is getting out of controll for me.

First I had a problem patching, it said after I patch that my game version doens't match the server's.

though I could play my toons if i ignored the error. but when I lunched my trooper it starts loading and got stuck at 90%.

After a lot of relunching, lots of times it decided to download same file again (English movie 1 and some others), and some repair luncher scans it somehow worked, I lunched the game without this error. but then when I lunch my trooper,( which I sent it a lot of my in game money to buy something from gtn, which is probably already taken now ><) it still gets stuck, and then I alt+F4 and lunch again. "unable to retvire patch data". closing and lunching again. donwloading english video 1.... 4+ GB... this isn't fun at all.

happens in 2 computers.

Edit: seems like it download english assest 1, not video. but I download it as well a couple of times now..

Edit v2: By the way, the download speed this time is super low (100-200kbps isntead of 1mbps+ last times) and my connection isn't bad at all, tested it. what is going on? I just want to play, and I still want this Item from CM...

    'Isn't it funny that today ended in a why is all that comes to mind'.

    Moving forward could I suggest that when it comes to days either side of a Patch that you pull up this link a few minutes before you decide to play... it will save you a lot of time and effort.

    *This way you would have been aware that there was  a whoops moment with last nights patch.. sadly not just once, but it's all fixed now... has been for the last 6 hours I think, and even then it only effected non streaming client users, which by the sounds of it you are.

    There are a few things folks can do to minimize the issues that they have surrounding patches and what not, the big one is to relax and breath, and to understand that not everything is a game companies fault.. in this case we blame Tait 🙂.

  • I knew about the problems, but i heard this is all fixed now, which it isnt for me...

  • I don't use SWTOR unleashed, and after I heard what deleting the folder do, I stoped the download and placed the folder back, If I remmeber correctly it downloaded something else for a couple of mins, the game worked, I tried logging my commando, stuck loading, quited, and now its downloading English Assest 1 again, I did NOT do anything, just logged the commando, quited, and logged in again.

    And this is occurring in 2 computers correct ?

    It maybe a case of a caching issue , if identical on 2 computers it makes it less likely to be local

    But just in case have you tried this repair utility ? just check the launcher.settings file doesn't change over to Bitraider after before launching

  • The luncher setting shows bitraider_disable: true which is good, but I don't know what about "bitraider_download_complete":
    { "swtor": true} 

    ^ what does it mean? and it created a bitraider folder now, which I think wasn;t there before.

    and yes, it happens on 2 computers.

    Ensure this line reads as , "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"SSN\" }"

    and you will definitely be on non streaming, if it is happening on 2 computers , there is likely 2 ways forward as likely not a local issue.

    one is to wait another 24 hours and see if it self resolves (may be best for now to give it the benefit of the doubt)

    two is to try a VPN and set it to say the US and see if it patches correctly , if it does patch ok and when you turn it off it goes back to painful , wait 24 hours

    A free VPN for example is www.hotspotshield.com , expect some advertising its why its free , if it doesn't help or finished with it simply uninstall it.

  • Ok now I'm frustrated, the downloading stopped while I wasn't home apperantly since an intenet crash in my home, (network connection please try again later).

    so I restarted the luncher, and now it's downloading english video 1... just tell me why.

    2 computers are downloading this thing over and over again...

  • Ok here is my thing, I completed the download and the messege of the 'version doesnt match' came again. I ignored it and played a bit, but now, after closing the game, When I relunch the game I get "unable to retview patch data. please check network connection (208) even tho my netwrok is just fine. I close the luncher, relunch and it starts to download things all over again.

    That's hell out of annoying, I need it fixed as soon as possible...
