Here's how to fix the patcher (note that this is a temporary patch).

First of all, the server you where assign too is down or doesnt exist. When you resolve the address pwipatch.perfectworld.com, it gave you a wrong address.

How we change it ?

Go to your Perfect World directory and go in the folder "patcher/server/". Open the file "updateserver.txt". You will see the first entry to be "http://pwipatch.perfectworld.com/patch/", what we are gonna do is we are gonna force him to use a specific patch server.

The range of IP that PWI use is 74.217.110.0 to 74.217.110.255. At first the server I was assign was 74.217.110.114. This server is broken, after a few tries I founded that 74.217.110.116 was working. So I added a line with this :

"patchTemp"(space)(tab)"http://74.217.110.116/patch/"

Where (space) is a space and (tab) is a tab.

Now open the launcher and go to update settings and select "patchTemp". Restart your client and it should work.
