    64-Bit Client. Nice. Just in the login screen it roughly takes double the RAM..could be good.

    wait, they bring 64 bit client to fight the memory issue and it takes double instead?

    At the logon screen, yes. Its roughly 500MB vs 1GB on 64. Also in the patch notes it says it autopicks the fitting one..nope, have to manually start the 64 bit client. We will see how it goes ingame.

    Cant login. If I log via arc the client instantly freezes with both 64 and 32 bit clients and if I run the exe directly it doesnt let me log due to arc restrictions.

    how do i go back to 32mode?
  • tabaloul
    tabaloul Posts: 159 Arc User
    If you check the task manager the exe is still 32 bit. still cant login tho, it just freezes when I try.

    So, I already tried all compatibility modes, administrator rights, renamed all 64 bit parts to the original ones, overwritten the original ones with copies of the 64-bit dlls and still freezes instantly after trying to login. What the hell?! DX9 got updated, too.

    They got rid of all the extra wardrobe slots I paid for on my character. Get ready for World War 3 in game.

    How do you run 64-bit? My client still says 32 bit in task manager.

    rename the x64 .exe to elementclient.exe and rename the old one to something else

    to the help for the x64 bit version. Is indeed brought in but were not yet selectable .. in the game directory: \ PWI_...... \ element\ or so exist 2 * exe. elementclient.exe and elementclient_64.exe. Name the normal elementclient.exe in eg elementclient-32.exe. The elementclient_64 in just elementclient.exe. Thus, ARC starts the 64 bit version. If you've done everything right and online since you stand it. ( see pictures).

    Looks like the daily quests (saving summer, delicious soup, south barrier village) have disappeared. I've also got some old Exclusive Rewards stuck clogging up my quest list - I can't see how to claim them and all it says is Don't forget to collect your prize in the newbie guide menu!

    The roll call also seems to have disappeared.

    It's the expansionnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

    The patcher updated and looks like we can patch now

    Gonna be a long night as I try to update the wiki. I'll be making an update post sometime in the next 24-48 hours with progress so people can read up on the new stuff. For now I'm rushing to add all the new class information while I wait for servers to come up.

    ALSO! Here's the PWCN patch notes for the update: http://w2i.wanmei.com/news/bulletin/20181023/80929.shtml

    EDIT: @heero200 some more feedback on the forums now haha, is it possible to make Technician/Edgerunner sections the in Class Discussion section of the forums? I'll be linking to these from the wiki so it'll be good for people to start up discussions there.

    Yes of course, I'll see what I can do. Otherwise I'll have to try ping someone.
    its called "999"
    IBU is a pain relief.

    Totally called it, this is really what this week's question had me thinking. I find it strange how each server decides what is what or how it's said.

    Sorry all really busy.

    I'll get back to people where I need to as soon as I can.

    Also I didn't know they where doing expansion or I would have said about servers going down earlier.

    Thanks

    We know you would have said, and will get back to us Heero. Your attention to keeping us up to date when you get less than satisfactory communiques is much appreciated.

    Trying. Very trying today.
    Checked this msg to see if patch notes had put in - nope, but they should be - i'm downloading patch and its about 70% done. Will we ever get patch notes for expansion patch? I hope so.

    Patch notes are up on news pages or first post.

    Thanks.

    Maint is 1 hour early... cautiously optimistic that this patch has more than usual going on behind it? No news posts yet but still...

    Please be a worthwhile update finally since u decided to kick everyone off an hour early RIP dailies D=
    Well im hoping that this is something worth while, I mean shutting servers off 1 hr before schedule.... which cut us off of NW is moronic if its not something good. go ahead a just let us know whats up.

    Sorry, I had an idea when they where gonna do it, I did guess next week. I hope the update is OK this week tho.

    Really wish they would notify us a few weeks before.

    Thanks.

    Thanks for the feedback given last week, I have had a rather busy week so hopefully I will get this defined and sorted in the next few days and may be a bit of feedback if I can.

    Going to answer this first, IBU is my favorite instance. Tho ill do all 3 of them i find the IBU timer is a good mechanic. You have 15 mins no matter what happens to do what you can. It must end after 15 mins!

    The only down side I can think of is it takes longer to make a squad than complete it.

    Thanks.​​

    Is there a place to download the patch? I've been 2 hours and only 1/4 done!

    I've only got a few that I'm sitting on at the moment for the patch notes page on the wiki.
    • Jone's Blessings currently cannot be equipped by Technicians and Edgerunners.
    • The Edgerunner's Combat emote does not function.
    • The Edgerunner's Fall Down emote does not function correctly and can have strange consequences when used before or after other emotes.

    Honestly, try out the 3rd one if you have an Edgerunner. My friend did "Defend" and then "Fall Down" and it's pretty amusing :D
