New Launcher

Quote from Fifio

what i don't get that you are still "online" even after you closed game hours ago and yes in taskmanager is no rom running so only option is just to restart PC

so far has this new launcher experience has been pure pile of poo

I have been kicked out a dozen times or so since the new launcher launched. ONCE it never went back to Play, just stayed at In Game. I closed the launcher and restarted it, even then it came back up and said I was In Game. What fixed it (reboot WOULD have, I am sure) was opening Task Manager with the launcher open and using End Task on everything GF Launcher/RoM-ish. When I then restarted the GF Launcher it came up to Play. So, something was being left running even when Task Manager said there was not, but using Task Manager to End all RoM-ish tasks fixed it.

That is true, this issue not only GF launcher. After closing Steam, dont break the account.

And seems too much online times.

Who cares? ten years plus some content

seriously you want us to reinstal game again, it will take ages lol. now i tried to run game again and it says this app cant run on your PC. WTH, i was trying to get back to gaming and it seems i gonna have to quit game. this is ridiculous....

every time you guys '' try to fix something '' you mess up beyond repair

Any ideas what to do?

What OS you have far?

wth is this

i have the game installed....

well closing the launcher and reopen fixed it but lol everytime a maintenance new problems

Go game folder and change UpdateEU.inf to Update.inf and delete others.

Use Client.exe NoCheckVersion and play. Maybe you see TNTlogin, this is bait.

Use old account like me. If you add your account to GF-client will not work

Eye of Wisdom commmunity surprising us.

Evening all , I have been playing since the beta and after todays patch mess up I'm just done with this game. First the patch like others above would not patch at all so i simply removed the game to reinstall it ..... that was a bad idea since I was using the original client and since the new launcher controls the whole thing when I removed the game from the launcher it messed up the Internal link to windows and will not remove the game correctly.

So just another way use players are getting boned by terrible software engineers , do you use children to develop your game or monkeys ?

I digress , has anyone found a work around to the patch issue or any idea if we are able to remove the clients information from Windows Registry so we can start with a fresh install ?

if you just deleted the folder instead of uninstalling through the launcher, try to "verify" the install, it should notice a lot of stuff is missing and re-download accordingly.

So the fun continues , I was able to fix the windows registry and get the old client out . Then rom strikes again with this ....

As you can seen from my attachment , the gf client wont even install or do its updates even when its 100% clean install . way to go rom , you sure know how to loose players like a boss.

Btw if you need good programmers that know what the hell they are doing , send me a message

@SaitoHajime , like i mentioned above I removed the game via the game forge client and not via the windows apps menu just to make sure there was no issue ... and guess what , there was. I have been recording my progress as I go just to make sure

no idea how you eff'd that up but, some regkeys are at HKCU Software Gameforge4d

Try deleting all the remains that you can find, same for remains of files in the install folder of the launcher, see if you maybe find some lingering process of it remaining running, if so, kill it. Then try reinstalling. Otherwise, no idea, I'm glad we teamlers didnt code that thing

Well best of luck all , Runes of Magic just lost yet another player that has been around since beta and is a diamond buyer. Maybe one day they will actually do what they promise and I may return , but until that day best of luck

@SaitoHajime ,

first of all how I eff'd it up ? really is that how you speak to players ? secondly I have checked everything with the registered and all has been removed and is clean as I did a clean install of windows just to be 100% sure .. any smart remark for that one ??? waiting ...

So since I am running a clean install of windows , there should be no issue right ... wrong having the same issue . O before I get a comment, when I mean clean install of windows I mean I formatted my hard drive back to pure 0 with computer forensic software to make sure there is no issue and just to be safe , I removed my m.2 ssd and replaced it with my new one .

finally just to be 100% safe that I have checked everything that I could on my end , I checked my fiber optic connection OC12 redundant connections checked my wan aggregation system and finally ran routing software to make sure my network was actually able to communication with your servers. Guess what .... my end is perfect ...

Even called my commercial fiber optics provider " Bell Canada " and had them run all the same test , im solid on my end

Well it doesnt break itself from not touching it, so something had changed on the system, whether you wanted it to or not.

Except, there is really not much to do.

Sometimes its even as stupid simple as Windows Defender or other snakeoil interfering just because it feels like it.

An entirely fresh Windows should be easily able to install the launcher either - the error message you posted is not from an entirely empty Windows either as far I can see.

Assuming the error message is actually happening while attempting to download/update the installer file while running ( its not entirely clear from your screen ) ... here is the downloader attached:

GameforgeInstaller.exe.txt

(rename from .txt)

Installed just fine on my crapped-to-hell Win10 (OS installed almost 2 years ago) just now 5mins ago ( I actually re-installed it just to test it. )

And for good measure, a zip of an already installed client directory. Starts fine even without regkeys, at least here.

Let's see if that works.

@SaitoHajime ,

the original post with my error was me downloading the new client after clearing it out and getting everything cleaned up . secondly even with a clean install I am still getting the same issue as I will show another image of it. Also just to be safe I always have my anti virus off just to be safe and still getting the same issue.

As you are able to see from the image below , I just took the picture as I was writing this message and also as you can see im not using windows defender . As stated in previous message I am a software engineer and im sure I know a thing or two about installing software.

As for your txt file that you attached ya that didnt work at all ... nice try tho . The zip file that was loaded upto mega actually sucked also . attached picture for your review.

Well , I think that is the end of line for me all . been a dedicated player since beta and this is the last draw for me . Between the client issues , support issues , lack of management in the organization and the extremely over priced item shop that is making players like myself sick , I think its time for me to move on to a more organized game that works

O did I mention the fail rate on the plussing jewels omg that could spark a whole thread just with that lol .

best of luck community , you will need it

"Hide extensions for known file types" is still enabled, of course you can't rename an file.exe.txt to file.exe that way - as the tooltip shows, the type of the file is still "Text Document" - means the file is still actually called GameforgeInstaller.exe.txt not GameforgeInstaller.exe

Yup , was just showing the image to show that I received the file correctly . anyways I just ran an md5 check on the gf installer and the installer is intact and complete with no errors but still having issues connecting to gf services . So i'll move on and save my money

Plus I don't need a gm telling my i effed up lol or is that normal for you to speak like that ? jw
