My downloading prob in FULL detail, please please help!
« on: December 02, 2007, 01:00:57 am »
Dear GMs/players who may be able to help,

*I have an 'RO downloading problem', so I am asking please that kind GMs/players - if they can - help me refix this situation that I'm in and finally be on my way to actually playing AnthemRO once again. Thank you.*

My story:
     My in-game character's name is "G. Holy Kaiser" the high priest, and I played with this char with many help from friends and guild (not guilds). So, one day I suddenly realised that I had so many "junk icons" in my RO folder that wanted to delete them - so, I did go and delete, but I only deleted one icon. And then this message appears saying that do I want to delete everything in relevance to this item that I am about to delete and if I do want to delete it then it will be deleted and not go into the "Recycle Bin" or something along those lines. I went to click "No" but my laser-mouse (not ball-mouse) moved to the "Yes" button and then I clicked it .... it was an accident!.

     And now, I have ABSOLUTELY NO FILE or data in relevance to AnthemRO ..... which basically mean that my computer does not know anything about "AnthemRO", "Sakray" .... nothing!

What I have done in attempt to fix this problem:
     I went to this forum and searched ALL topics that contained the word "problem" because so then I would know what people had what problem and what they'd do to fix their problem(s). Simple ..... but it wasn't simple as well. I tried to find peolpe with problems similar to mine and did what they had done as they had so posted in their topic. "Download this", "Go here", "Don't click start" ..... honestly, I have tried at least 4 different theories of what 'veteran members' had told them to do. And in that conclusion it didn't work for me. I am really upset - that their theories didn't work for me - but not enough to go and about and go sleep it off .....

     *I realise that I may be stressing myself about trying to give as much information on my downloading problem, but I also realise that if people know what exactly I did, then maybe kind GMs/players may be able to help fix my problem ....*

Also:
     In my search for people who had the same problem as I, I came across one little problem with peoples' posts ... though I'm not saying that my opnion is meant to insult or tell them to change their way of posting but rather that I thought - if they wanted to - they could make their responses more specific in terms of directions. For instance, one person who took his/her time to help another person (like me), and upon helping s/he said "Go to this link and download" and that was all s/he posted

 http://ratemyserver.net/index.php?page=download_kROLinks

 .... Though I thought that that tip was useful, it did not really helped much because s/he said "and download" .... download what ? That web s/he had posted had a list of sources that enables users to download sakrays/ragnarok ... and in that, it would be more helpful that s/he had said which 1 of those links SPECIFICALLY should the distressed download because then we'd need not have to know that some of them are bogus and some of them don't work. But, ultimately, this is my opinion and is meant to be read as a sign of my thoughts on things and not meant to insult.

     So, I am asking kind players of this forum, if anyone can please directly step-by-step teach me what and how to download IN ORDER to actually play AnthemRO and talk with my great guild/friends .... I am grateful. I am 17, but I talk like I'm not, and I may get lost in instructions easily BUT if you can help me with my situation then I have nothing to offer but my undying gratitude and appreciation for your help. My lesson learned is to never mess with files when it includes something about 'deleting'.

     P.S. Thanks for reading and I extend my thanks for those who post to help me.

Have you taken the time out to take a look at this post?

http://www.anthemro.com/forums/index.php/topic,81.0.html

This guide has been extremely helpful to a lot of people. The only thing is, upon finishing his instructions and using his installer, you will need to download and install our updated mini installer to your RO folder ( c:\program files\gravity\RO\:

ftp://client:download@72.55.174.209/

Should you still need extra help, I'm here and willing to lend you a hand and walk you through it step by step! ^^
No longer high GMing. Please do not message me about your recovery. Don't give away the keys to your car and you won't have it stolen and have to go to the police to try and get it back.

Thank you GM Denia, truly Acejay's guide works wonders for many people ..... and hopefully it shall work for me as well. I don't wish to dwell any longer in my path of cluelessness; thus, I have checked,rechecked, and triple-checked all and any files that is relevant to AnthemRO, and it appears there isn't. Which ultimately and basically mean that I will have to start fresh. I have no problem with that.

     Upon starting fresh, I think I will follow Acejay's guide as you've recommended me to do, and in that I think I want to make posts of my progress concerning my exact steps of what I have done in hopes of getting AnthemRO to work again.

My attempt in first step to download:

*Upon downloading, I shall follow Acejay's guide ONLY.*

I have: - clicked the first link leading to "files.filefront.com" the web
             http://files.filefront.com/SAK+SETUP1017/;8839922;/fileinfo.html

           - clicked "Download Now" which instantly opens up this file
             http://38.118.213.187/9rr2n9wqlh+/personal/m/martinth/kro-martint-net-SAK_SETUP7.exe/X6

           - clicked "Ok" on the file

           - And eventually the download takes in the form of "Free Download Manager" ... I know that Acejay has said not to use Download Manager; but, I have used Download Manager (and I got to play AnthemRO) BEFORE .... "before" as in I have used Download manager before I deleted everything about RO by forcibly accident

           - Now, I need to wait until the download gets up to 100%. I shall make more posts on my progress so that people may know what were the exact steps I did and in that kind GMs/players can tell me am I doing exactly the right thing.

goldmind: I'm not sure if the Download Manager will work with Sak, I know I've tried it, but because of the /X6 at the end of the URL, it prevents you from being able to use a download manager with it. Let us know if it works though!

I'm just wondering... Have you tried going to your recycle bin and restoring the files in there?

You didn't post whether you did that or not (or I might have missed it)... If you did... then continue what you're doing now. You can try restoring the files from your recycle bin in the following way

There should be an icon "Recycle bin" on your desktop
 
 -select all anthemRO files you deleted
 -right click one of them and click on restor files
 -it will ask a confirmation for this
 -confirm you want to restore them
 -try opening it again?

Thank you GM Denia and undutch for replying: I think you might be right GM, I tried it once (using another person's methods of downloading) and it took me about 5 or 7 minutes for the actual connection to send through ... which meant that the Download Manager works with Sakray (or from what it appears at that moment). And as soon as I got all the way up to 100% ... well, I don't remember what happens, I forget things sometimes when I'm moping about not being able to play for whole 2 weeks. But it appears to me that the download was successful for JUST that one time.

     and for undutch: well, right after I pressed delete to delete one of the "useless" icons from my RO files, a message appeared saying that the Recycling Bin cannot hold such a large file and that I can have the option of deleting the files relating to the icon I am about to delete without moving it to the Recycling Bin. And so, I moved to click "No" (don't delete anything) but then my "laser-mouse" moved to the "Yes" button (probably because my mousepad was uneven at that moment), and I clicked "Yes" by accident.

     So, to answer your question: no, I could not restore my files of anything relating to RO because the Recycling Bin could not hold such a large file .... I'm so upset.

Also, currently, my download is at 58% and I am downloading it through Acejay's guide. I shall make more posts on my progress so that people may know what were the exact steps I did and in that kind GMs/players can tell me am I doing exactly the right thing.

Ah ok... Well, it was worth a shot. ^^
Good luck downloading the clients though.
