Title: OH HI THAR. HALP?
Post by: holyflyingcarsbatman on April 02, 2011, 01:34:59 am

So I've downloaded the full set-up installer. I used to play this server when it was Anima and again when it was Anthem. So I've been around the block a time or two with this server. Basically, I was just wondering what might cause this problem and if there might be a way to fix it:

Every time I run the downloaded installer, NOTHING will pop up. I have given it time to pop up and start running after I prompted it to do so. I have shut down my computer and tried to run the installer again. Nothing is really working. So a little bit of insight would be greatly appreciated.

Redownload? Possibly corrupted installer.

My Ragnarok_RE is blank/won't patch!
1. If you get a blank patcher, download http://providence.project-dissonance.com/tools/patcher/PatchClient.zip.
2. If you're unable to patch, download http://providence.project-dissonance.com/tools/patcher/Ragnarok_RE.exe.

I have redownloaded twice. There is nothing wrong with the patcher. I can't get to the INSTALLER.

My installer took a good chunk of time opening, there was once a time I clicked on it and AFK'd for a while (like some minutes).
When I come back it was ready to go. Probably you should do that?

Okay, by some way of some magical being, it decided to work this time. Thank you all for your feedback.

Mmm, now that you mention it I remember mine doing the same thing. I just gave up and started doing something else and eventually it popped up. I figured it was my anti-virus software scanning it before it ran itself.

The client is extremely compressed, so decompressing can take a while, especially on weaker systems. It can take anywhere between 1 to 45 minutes, depending on the CPU power and Memory of the machine. I will try to reduce the compression in future installer builds to make the extraction process faster. I apologize for the trouble you had with installing our server and I will try to illustrate this fact more clearly on the downloads page of the website.

I'm glad you got it to work and I welcome you back to my server. =)
