    I can still multiclient, just add the elementclient.exe in your start menu. Launch PWI via ARC first then you can open a 2nd client as well. b:victory

    I patched without ARC and opened 2 clients b:laugh
    Never been so happy for a normal day.
    I would like to know if this is what they were originally intending (thus what exactly was the "integration" part? Perhaps being a bit more explicit about this would have lessened the fear), OR they decided "Nah, lets not do this until we're actually ready for it".

    -Edit-
    Wait what O.o some people are needing ARC to update and some people don't o.O

    I'm gonna laugh if the CM comes and says this is gonna be fixed in an emergency maintenance.

    What are people talking about? b:puzzled I can multiclient without any problems with arc. Just open client from the folder where it is located. Didn't try after this maint, but considering how many had problems with it before makes me think they do something wrong. What you did before arc to multi? Just do the same.

    Now that I've completely downloaded Arc, then I downloaded PWI from Arc and the game still won't log on, shows you how bad Arc really is. Really, why even release the Arc Integration and try to make us use it if you can't get it out of Beta.

    I won't bother putting a ticket in this time. The last time I tried Arc and my game wouldn't log in I submitted a ticket. The sent me a bunch of stuff to try and none of it worked. So why bother going threw the same stuff again, when the results will be the same.

    Arc won't open on the first update, HOWEVER if you close out PWI all the way, and try to reopen it, it will force Arc and often not be able to find your installation, thus forcing you to reinstall. Arc is all the BS everyone said it'd be. I'm either quitting or taking a break till there's a bypass, or if I even begin to care, which I wouldn't count on....

    Good going guys.

    i would like to hear from devs, gms mods idc who response about all the problems something none ever wanted. i have 3 comps i used to play PWI on. And every single one of them got into different kinda problems:

    1) installed patch normally through old patcher. relaunched and was booted to ARC which got stuck. After restarting computer all installation all PWI files were gone (i mean old patcher and elemenclient.exe). Now need to redownload PWI again for that comp.

    2) installed patch normally through old patcher. was booted to arc after hitting start button. Apparently have to install game again as your "registry fix tool" is worthless piece of c.... cause it didnt work.

    3) installed patch normally through old patcher. all was working fine through old system. dced. cant even launch anything at all. arc dont work pwi dont work.

    I had no trouble whit arc, it updated this morning, and it launch PWI just fine, no download required, the PWI launcher updated the game. And I could log on.

    Only difference I found is that I can't launch the 1st element client whit out logging inside arc.

    After arc is launch, and I log in it, I can start a 2nd client and log in it. Then I can start a 3rd client and probably more.

    I then log arc off, and i,m now running 2 client whit out arc in the back ground.

    Point is that multi was always ok. And people complained it wasn't.
    And what SailorKitty has just said - it works. I will check it out as soon as I get home, but I don't see any reason to be unable to multi now same as before.

    As much as I didn't wish to use ARC, I now have it installed and PWI up and running with a minimum of fuss. As soon as I finished updating, I was able to log into PWI the normal way but because I wished to try to multiclient I closed PWI and tried reopening at which stage I was given the 'You must install Arc to continue' popup. I installed Arc, it wouldn't recognize that PWI was already installed so I used the Arc repair tool which fixed the issue.

    I logged into PWI using Arc, closed Arc down and then opened another client via the element.exe file and currently have 2 accounts logged ingame.

    Well, for me it's exactly what I expected it to be : a minor inconvenience with 0 use. I'd prefer this arc thing not to exist but can't go rage/quit over it.

    This, except I had to pin the elementclient.exe to Start for it to work.

    From what i have read here and there, in this moment the world of players of PWI is divided like this :

    A. The part that can play like they always did , the only thing is updating client

    B. The part that can log in through Arc but cant multiclient at all

    C. The part that can log in through Arc and can multiclient.

    D. The sad part that can't play atm, the Arc or no Arc isnt working for them.

    same here


    When I opened Arc after client update, Arc Games List was empty and I am threatened to download and reinstall PWI b:angry
    To be honest I am thinking about to stop the download and ignore PWI until the Developer have fixed this s.hit.




    Dear Developers, when will any of your works work at the 1st try?

    1. About 8GB now, same as if you downloaded it without Arc.
    2. All they did was change the patcher so it loads Arc when you click it's shortcut.

    Post more information. I'd be willing to bet you're doing something wrong though.

    A. Most of us.

    B. Most of us. Multi-clienting hasn't changed.

    C. Most of us. Multi-clienting hasn't changed.

    D. They have some really strange system incompatibility and are maybe 1% of the user base. Or they're doing something wrong.
