The files are fine and were tested on our test servers. It's deploying them to the Live server that seems to have hit a snag--ie, they don't seem to have arrived where they were supposed to go. And yes, it is very lame.

 

Ah, so the files are there, just miss-placed? So someone has to manually go into the folders I guess and locate the files and place them in the correct spots? No wonder its taking awhile.

There are some luggable Snowmen around which dispense snowballs. They flag you for pvp, I believe, when you pick them up, so unless you want suprise love taps from people your best bet is to find the static snowmen, there is a thread with their locations floating around somewhere.

So no you don't need the ability.

Still not working.

This is the sort of thing I'd loose my job over, backup before running updates and TEST THE INSTALL BEFORE RELEASE.

I understand the testing was done... but deployment needs to be tested too.

 

C'mon guys... srsly!

I've never ever worked for a company that didn't boff something up now and again.  These sort of things happen, and it's usually because something that's always worked fine just plain didn't work this time.  Usually it's something that people suspect could never ever fail, and it gets overlooked.

I'm not saying it's right, and I agree that it sucks, but these things do happen.

Thank you Vinia!

 

Another question:

 

I dowloaded and installed the Beta launcher. Once this issue is fixed can I just uninstall the beta launcher and go back to my original launcher? I play this and EQII but do not like the beta launcher. I noticed I had to close the thing on my toolbar or it runs while playing the game?

When they sort out the missing/corrupt files, you should be able to use your normal launchers again.

Maybe it's just me but... I got already  the station launcher on  my pc, but i use it only   for chat outside the game. Today after being aware of the issue with the launcher i run the SL, then i get the upgraded version and now my SL is updating from an hour to a 6%  dowload bar.... where is my fault? bad internet connection? Wrong country?....

 

I know there still time to play the new content, but i'm very glad if someone can help me...
