Husband installed ethernet cable on laptop. I uninstalled then reinstalled stwor. I launch and see this screencap. Apparently I have MORE to download but where, how and why? What is going on here? Why can't I play my sith Setira?
Check this link for the streaming launcher , it will downlaod to a minimum point to allow play on the starter planets whilst the rest of the game downloads.
If the download doesnt correct with the link for at 0% above then maybe best to switch to non streaming as per this link this is a new game download however the entire game needs to be downloaded before able to play.
ugh.. one step forward and two back.. The game is fully downloaded now BUT I still can't create a level one old republic character. It forces me into the level 65 eternal throne character creation screen and I can't find any way to change it to the original character creation with a level one. I need to find out how to just select the old republic level one creation option. Help!
I honestly would recommend changing to the non-streaming launcher. It has less issues then the default streaming launcher. The main difference is that Play button is grayed out until the patch is fully complete.
To change to it follow the below steps, but as I said you would honestly have less issues in general. I use this version and don't have any issues with character creation:
NOTE this is almost complete download of the game again
right mouse click on game shortcut and select open file location
open the launcher.settings file in notepad and locate the below line and edit to the below
, "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"SSN\" }"
, "bitraider_disable": true
SAVE the changes.
Delete the BitRaider, Movie and Asset folders then start the launcher.
What is your swtor username
@EA_David can this be investigated given the unusual situation ?
i would recommend to write an ingame ticket so the support can take a look at this as well, or call in if you are unable to write a ticket
