I am trying to download the last patch for SK ( which include the new danger mission )
When I started downloading the patch it reached 90 % , but now the time left is going up and down like 89:37 remaining then suddenly jumps to 104:12 then goes down again to 81:25.....
All patches before I downloaded them fast but now it seems it will take ages..
I tried restarting steam nothing happened tried to stop downloading , nothing happened .
I hope they fix this as fast as possible
Same for me, just as always, every time there is update it happens.
And while we are having troubles with some just pathetic update other players are already in game. If we wont get in in time, we will have to wait 60 hours to play new mission.
So you dont suggest anything Asukalan ?
And we are going to wait 60 hours if they dont fix it O_O ?
I am using an elevator pass ! That means I will lose 2 days of it :(
Guess what Dragneel, same for me! This always happens ='( (always gets stuck at 81%) Guess I'll go do some chores or something and check if it is done later =/
I spare my mist to 100... to play the new mission. But now i'm sitting infront of this "Loading ..." -Screen.
Just pissed.
... and yeah, same like last update!
Next time pls notice us that it is possible that we have to wait 60 hours to play again!! ...
What a joke...
There isn't any way to fix that? Using proxy or whatever...
This isn't something the staff should ignore or take it easy like that...
Some spend real money into the game... We don't pay to see it not working...
The most thing I am worried about is my elevator pass as I said before !!
Why does OOO dont check their updates and patches before they apply it for players >:/
And please if someone of you solved this problem please post it here so we can do like you :)
Seems, same problem already was : http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/53305
I deleted ALL intro-bundle.* files at *:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Spiral Knights\rsrc\ and now waiting for end of re-downloading.
Who have time and fast connection speed - can simply do complete reinstallation.
My friends, who has same problem, said : complete reinstallation helps.
SFME
Grn-Star do you mean the 2 files in the bottom : intro-bundle and intro-bundle.jar.old
or all files in the rsrc file ?
How cruel! came back to check the progress, it jumped forward to 97% and 1:25, now it's climbing again ='(
Xxdragneel, i deleted
intro-bundle.jar.old
intro-bundle.jar
intro-bundle.jarv
Now i'm looking at "Downloading data ... 90% complete 4:08 remaining".
intro-bundle.jar size is 37MB and increased too slow.
(Old intro-bundle.jar was 50 543 239 bytes)
As i can see, file downloading by ~10 kb parts with intervals 1-5 seconds.
Wow. Time decreased ! 2:00 remaining, Current file size 44 Mb.
I deleted those 3 and uninstalled SK from steam and I am dowloading it again is that right ?
And how much time it will take ?
Fast reply please :)
Seriously, taking almost an hour for a download!??! And it still hasn't finished yet! Considering how often this happens, all that time lost on my elevator pass is really upsetting T_T
Finally, the download has finished, and I've been outbid on all my items!!!!
Downloading complete, new intro-bundle.jar size 50 480 103 bytes.
But ... game re-starting again and again :(
Well, I waited, and waited........
I refreshed the download a couple times, and then left to clean the kitchen, it took an hour, but finally it decided to finish the download and launch! Hope your download problem gets fixed soon Dragneel =/
Guess what now Alfred , I checked the files of the game and I only find one file of those three intro-bundle files
Before I had intro-bundle.jar
intro-bundle.jar.old
intro-bundle.jarv
Now I only have on file named intro-bundle.jar
Dont know where the other 2 files gone :(
And I am currently downloading the patch again its at 38 % now hope it works :(
Edit 1 : The time remaining sign disappeared and it says patching ~~cheers !!
Xxdragneel (or anyone else), tell me, please, what size have your files :
full-music-bundle.jar - ... downloading. 130 955 058 in launcher.log
intro-bundle.jar - 50 480 103 bytes
full-rest-bundle.jar - 101 633 309 bytes
Why didn't the game work for you yet ? I have just did what you said , deleted all 3 files above and re-downloaded the game and it worked
But anyway those are the sizes of each file you want :
full-rest-bundle.jar : 101,633,309 bytes
intro-bundle.jar : 50,543,283 bytes
full-music-bundle.jar : 130,956,666 bytes
Hope I helped ^_^
TY, Xxdragneel.
With new full-music-bundle.jar game kept constant restart
But ...
I registered at forum during downloading full-music-bundle.jar (i using STEAM logon to write here).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
And new game downloaded (BTW, fast !) to
C:\Documents and Settings\"user name"\Application Data\spiral\
I've copied from there all files to
*:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\common\Spiral Knights\rsrc\
and game started !
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(And i have othe sizes of files : full-rest-bundle.jar - 101 519 587, intro-bundle.jar - 50 480 103, full-music-bundle.jar - 130 955 058)
When I replaced only this 3 files - did not help. Only a full copying with the replacement.
Alot of times when, especially when downloading patches, your antivirus software can get in the way. It likes to scan files to make sure there are no viruses. Yes this is a good thing, however when downloading new game files and patches it may take awhile to complete if not at all. So, firstly, I would disable any on access scanners ( you can always re enable them when the patch is complete). If that doesnt work then check your firewall settings, or disable if necessary.
Hokus pokus,
Really, all that silly excuses are pathetic. Disable firewall? Disable antivirus? Install linux/steam/dont install steam/ do a barrel roll to make it faste...
SK IS NOT ONLY THING THAT EVER UPDATES
Im sure that people who are having problems with updating SK are using several other applications that are updating from time to time and WOW They dont have problems with those, no slow updates, no broken connections, everything goes fine.
ITS SK which is broken. Only game that have problems with updates, only game that can lag on hi end computers, make them crash while other games, way more demanding than SK run flawlessy.
Less popular games tend to have issues such as these. Being that their not in your antivirus or firewalls database as trusted applications. Heck, certain programs upon installation recommend you disable antivirus software. So it is indeed not unheard of. Yes SK has its bugs, but then again it does use JAVA.
Same for me... :(
