Stuck on Patch?

[Stok3d]

See if this helps:

If you are on Windows 7 and experience any of the following issues:

1. You are stuck downloading the same files over and over
2. You are stuck downloading a specific file, but it never downloads.
3. You are stuck accepting ToS over and over.

You will need to set your User Account Control (UAC) settings to: Default - Notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer. You will then need to restart your computer and run hexpatch.exe again.

We believe that the "Never Notify me" setting is causing Windows 7 to protect your files in some other way. As a result the patcher can't do its thing. We are just as baffled as you are why increasing security settings seems to fix permission issues, but that's what fixed it for us this morning (and it's was pretty rough to track down). We have an engineer researching this further, but for now this is the work around.

I actually have symptom #1 on Mac OS X. Funny

I'll see if the problem persists if I run the game as admin.

EDIT: Nope... That didn't help, which suggests an issue even deeper than simply not being able to write files. Annoying, because last night the game worked fine for me.

EDIT2: Ah, I see that this was already noted in the other thread -> http://forums.cryptozoic.com/showthr...t=44436&page=4

Workaround worked for me eventually. When I launched it the first time after the restart it was still stuck on cards.pl-pl.xml, but after I closed and launched the patcher again it worked.
