Stuck on loading screen
I am reporting the same issue as others players have (2 for on here). SWTOR is installed on steam. Laucnher starts fine and I'm able to log in. When the game opens I'm stuck on the loading screen indefinitely.
Here are the things I have tried: Checking firewall / Updating graphics / Alt + Enter / Windows + R key to acess local data settings and then changing the ''client_settings.ini'' file data or deleting it / Installing or Reinstalling DirectX / Restarting computer / Reinstalling the game / Checking game files through steam / Deleting files to force a file correction on steam / Running in administrator / Verifying Compatibility settings in task manager / Tested connection with wifi-hotspot from my phone assuming my new wifi could be the issue.
Nothing has worked.
I tried installing the launcher from the SWTOR website directly, but when I do an error prompt appears stating ''Download failed to contact the alias service. Timeout on I/O".
In accordance with proxos666 advice in another thread, I have oppened a command prompt and proceeded with a systems file check. Some corrupted files were fixed. I than ran a clean boot. The same issue persist.
The last time I was able to log in that I am certain of was on January 5th at 00h22 AM as per my most recent screenrecording of the game. To my best recollection I have not tried to log in until then.
The only thing that has caught my eye is that when the launcher is ready to start, next to the play button the patch notes are "Patch notes: Game update 7.7c". I can see that game update 7.7d was released on the 17th. The game is uptodate on steam and no updates are available.
I'm at a loss of what to do. I will add my DxDiag below if it helps. I really wish for this to be fixed.
Thanks to all who try to help!
Update! Me and my friend tried using a VPN... and it worked! So it seems to be the wifi / ISP that's causing a blocage somewhere.
