The torrent download isn't working, at least for me.

edit: I get the error: "Error: WriteToDisk: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

    Launcher crashes everytime I try to run it. It worked last night and patched, I was just trying to see if it still worked.

    I suspect you should clear history/cookies on your browser and see if that doesn't help mandodo.
    Edit: sargunx, i'll bet rebooting fixes this issue

    Hey guys,

    We've posted some information that will probably help with downloading, installing, and playing the game.

    You can find it over on the Tech Support forum:

    I downloaded it, installed it, and patched it up without any issues. I also have the client from the URL hack installed and both seem to co-exist peacefully for now.

    Apparently somebody just turned the torrent server on, so it's working now. Just had to wait fifteen minutes. I'm downloading normally since it's faster but I'll download the torrent and seed for people as well.

    An email should be arriving shortly with more info. I'd remove the previous installation, since it's just taking up space.

    If you go to the DL page it is not there for you?

    I wouldn't worry about the email. Since you are Guardian you should be good to go, right?

    I need reading for dummies 101, whoops :/ Before I got the email these links for direct DL and Torrent were not present. Then after I received the email and went into the site they were there so I assumed it was the right client. Guess I will wait and see how this all plays out. Thanks for pointing it out.

    Regarding the direct link some people in beta used earlier:


    The CM got back to us. The link is to an older client and could cause conflicts and corruptions. DO NOT use it. Downloads should be available properly by the end of today if properly eligible for beta with the correct steps for downloading. Check your email registered to the account/purchase.


    That's all the CM told us today. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

    I don't know if this counts as an issue, but at one point I was downloading (torrent) at about 11 megabytes per second and now I'm down to about 200 kbs. I'm not sure which is supposed to be the standard here ;p
