The reason it takes so long cause the patch starts somewhere around 4.0.0 or so. It takes forever cause you need it patched up to 4.0.1 or 4.0.3. The same thing happend to me. My Download goes to 100% but then the update always stops at 79%. It took me 1 day and a half just to install it -_-

Mine doesnt get stuck at any percentage… it looks like its updating/downloading alright.. but then after it finishes, the client just closes and reopens, and BAM, have to update again… .

Guys after downloading the RoM installation .rar file, and after installing it the client upgrades the version ONE BY ONE. So you guys have to wait for it to upgrade to the latest version before you can run the game. The versions are:-

I downloaded the client in 7 _fucking_ days (4.2GB) and i installed it. Now i’m patching it, but it takes ages: the upside bar arrives to 100%, and then it restarts. The downside bar goes up to 75% and then restarts from 30%.

wow…this problems been the same since 2008?!

un-fucking-believable, if you’ll pardon me french! finished downloading an 8.31gig client installation file and now stuck at 10% on the update… it isn’t slow.. the download simply stops. it’s not my connection ‘cos i checked that…

worst thing though, i’ve been doing this a full day now, and it did it’s thingy one time around. and that itself took like 3 or 4 hours… but the game doesn’t start… i’m back at the updater and it’s stuck!

10%update – 100%hell!

I’m getting a problem here. First of all as you all know, the damn thing takes so long to download. About three hours for me, not much compared to other guys on here so I’m happy. But after I open it and it starts to upodate, the damn updater stops at 10% and an error message comes up. Anyone know what to do?
\Also, how do I change the client language?

so far i have got to the program and it was taking forever to install up date cuz the kb was at 31 per sec and droping at a steady rate so i closed it and oppened it sand it was at 100% and froze so i closed and now its running the 3.0.11.2393.en up date

100mb/s link here and been updating for 3 hours now.

Its the patcher itself that sucks, not your download speed. It wants to apply every single little update one by one which each have to go though a full install routine before it can download the next one.

What RoM needs is a “catch up” patch system that downloads all the little updates in large chunks. Would speed this horrible updater up considerebly.

There is one giant problem with this game if your from Europe.
Lag is your worst enemy followed by extreme choppiness caused solely by it.

Trying to change the dev.ini actually does not work, regardless what server and language you select, then making it read only.

Until these developers pull their thumbs and arms out of you know where, this is an epic fail from a European perspective, shame because it looks good, but then just plays crap.

I have a good solid 50mb line, I have a high quality gaming rig i7, so it has nothing to do with my isp, nor with the machine, it’s entirely a geograhical based issue..ie cant play on eu servers.

I have finally been able to download everything after three full days of my poor computer working hard. Now I’ve gotten the home screen up where I can get into the game, I picked the server and all that, but the two bars of “download” and “update” are in the race to finish. The update bar starts at 32% and download at 4%, but by the end update is 79 and download is 100. It will update or whatever in that new window that pops up saying
“Runes of Magic Update #”
“Game Path…C:\Program Files\Runes of Magic\”
“Copying…” yadayadayada
and then a new window pops up titled “Patching WDB” that will freeze my computer. The first window closes and the Runes of Magic restarts all over again just to get the same result. It bugs me and annoys me. I’m about to delete the game and give up.
