Update won't install (patch error)


Kuzco

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to update my game and when promoted in the launcher, I select download. Once it finishes downloading, I click the 'close' button when promoted and it then closes the launcher and comes up with an error:

 

Patch failed

Failed to update the launcher (code 2)

Please close any applications related to Renegade-X and try again.

I don't have anything open so not sure what this means. I'm trying to play online but when I select a server it starts downloading heaps of random files. I've waited for over half an hour while it downloads random files such as VH_maps etc but it seems to be never ending. I'm assuming this is related to the outdated version.

Thanks

Haven't updated in ages (as I haven't been playing). Would say over a year ago.

I would recommend completely deleting your Renegade X directory (as well as deleting from the apps/programs control panel) and doing a clean install.

Uninstalled and then tried re-installing twice, both times I got the following error (right at the end after installing everything):

Error: Unable to start Renegade-X launcher: Another instance is already running!

Thanks for your help thus far :)

open your taskmanager and look for a "Renegade X Launcher" task running in the background. kill the process, start the launcher again -> install the game.

I'm a bit surprised to hear from that bug again :/ thought they fixed it with the latest launcher version. and you're using the official launcher v0.8x?

If that does not work out as my colleague previously described and you already have the current version 0.82.
Can I tell you 2 alternative possibilities that are not official. You could try this alternative.

1 opportunity to use the Community Manager. ->

 

-> Start Community manager. Login Guest -> Downloader tab -> update (Check with server)  -> wait -> start downloading -> play and hafe fun :D

 

2nd possibility to download a full build. ->
