I probably wasn't clear. I didn't mean that I could play right away after restoring the client to previous version. I let the old client patch up the game (The reference to low speed was actually to the old patcher download speed). After it patched the game, I could finally play.
As a side note, the download speed was fluctuating from ridiculous 40kb/s to 13mb/s on a 100 line. Oh and I didn't see Bitraider in Processes. Might have something to do with a fact that I have the game since launch and successive patches might have messed something out.
At first I though swtor unleashed messed things up, then I though maybe files are read only, I made sure that both directories, all three exe files and processes are in exception in (Windows) firewall and in antivirus (MS Security Essentials). Gave up and was about to made a clean reinstall (6 x 8gigs for nothing)...
I hope I'll be able to run the game tomorrow. :/
I keep sticking at 85% install on the main assets 214 installation. I've been working on it all day and still can't get it to work. I've tried everything I could think of, I've rebooted my computer at least 50 times today, tried safe mode, tried running launcher as administrator, tried re-downloading the patch and trying again. Nothing I have tried works, it still keeps sticking at 85%. Been playing this game since launch and this is the first time I have ever had this much trouble with an update. It's ridiculous.
Well it appears I have all the PC's in the house updated...
Mine corrected the endless patching by simply doing what I recommended this morning..
Revalidate my firewall exclusions, and let the mess repair itself... (using the repair tools/guides)
Took some time granted because on 'this' machine I do not have bitraider or streaming enabled... but it got there in the end using the simple formula...
