xVinylScratchx Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Well since, as usual, i seem to have some crazy issue that no one else has lets get to. Its been a while since I've played due too performance on old computer issues so i came back to try again but it needs an update since its out of date and no servers appear, Here's the issue: Launcher runs and prompts to update "Launcher update Available! Installed Version: 0.54 (yes old i know) Latest Version: 0.74" This is fine, i click Download and it downloads. Once it hits 100% another prompt appears saying: "Updating Ready to Install. Press close to install and restart." Problem is it just closes the launcher and re-opens it saying the same thing as above that there is a "Launcher update Available!". its just a endless cycle of this and i don't know why. i don't have that great of net in the first place and really don't want to re-download the whole thing if i don't have to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted February 25, 2017 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted February 25, 2017 Check the folder permissions on the Renegade X folder so that EVERYONE (no that's literally the group name) has full permissions to the folder. If it's doing an endless cycle then it's probably just not actually able to swap out files. Also make sure you apply that to all sub folders when you do that, otherwise you'll have more weird problems with updates. Was resolved in a more recent release, but the old releases didn't set permissions on the folder during install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totem Arts Staff yosh56 Posted February 25, 2017 Totem Arts Staff Share Posted February 25, 2017 Sucks. You might be able to save yourself like 4GB of install if you just download the new launcher on the main page, then overwrite your launcher folder with it.

Agent Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Honestly a fresh install is going to be way easier than debugging the issue. Plus most of the files in your game client probably have to be fully redownloaded by now anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of... except a lot of the environment/vehicle/character packages haven't been touched since like beta 2-3... Would probably save a lot of download time, but a fresh install would probably also guarentee you don't have more issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
