    Have you initiated the verify function selectable on the launcher menu? Let me know, so I may assist you further.



    Thanks!

    The problem is your antivirus program.

    Here's how i fixed it with avast.
    1. open avast and click on settings.
    2. click on exclusions.
    3. hit the add tab and choose browse.
    4. find your main pwi folder. (Usually in program files.)
    5. tick the box next to it.
    6. click ok.
    7. go to sleep for several hours while genesis updates. b:sleep

    Probably pretty similar routine for AVG or any other antivirus. Just got to find the exclusions option. Hope it works for everybody.

    Come on already I have been downloading both automatically and with the link in forums patch ec_patch_144-161 and patch is done after 23 hours of downloading and says its corrupted now. And, automatically update still isn't finished downloading progress bar isn't even halfway yet this is bullcrap.....I too just want to play....last Tideborne update took me 18 hours with my connection...it's now been 23 like i said this is bullcrap....I admit I have lousy internet service.....but, it isn't dial up.......so this shouldn't be taking this long....i'm not really happy, i'm really frustrated now...had one friend say it took him 3 hours........i don't have avast....I have full coverage AVG the kind you pay for.....Any one have any solution for me this is totally annoying i'm just about ready to give the game up.........And, Lord knows I certainly don't want to do that....As, i have a level 100 bm, level 82 cleric and small wiz and would love to also make a new class...Also, I do have about $400 USD in this game and can't even update it with out it taking this long is so messed up....... so i need any kind of help i can get ty I would appreciate it kindly.........

    ok...look...im telling you that this IS a problem with your antivirus...so you need to look through avg and find an exclusions option and add perfect world to your exclusions list(It's probably under settings)...that is what i was told to do...and as a matter of fact I was told it was an error with avg and not avast...I had to figure out how to fix it with avast on my own...and btw shutting off your av and fw wont fix the problem.

    I think this is the fix...

    1. Open AVG.
    2. Click the 'Tools' menu, then click 'Advanced settings...'. This opens the advanced options window.
    3. From the menu on the left, find 'Resident Shield'. You might have to click the dot next to it to drill down to the submenu.
    4. Click 'Excluded Items'.
    5. From here you can either add an entire directory or a single file. To exclude a whole directory, click the 'Add Path' button. To exclude only a single file, click 'Add File'. Doing either of these things opens a window which will ask you to browse to the location.
    6. To make changes to anything already in the list, click the 'Edit List' button.

    And now that its completely spelled out for you I hope you can get it to work. I hope that fixes it for you. If not then i guess you have a totally different problem.

    It seems to me that there are more ways to add exceptions to avg and that avg has had more problems with false positives than avast. Try this one:

    *Open the AVG Free program -> "Tools" menu -> "Advanced settings" -> "PUP exceptions" -> push the "Add exception" button to add a new exception.
    * Now find the file you want to except from AVG Free detection. If you are not sure that the file location is static, enable "Any location - do not use full path" function.
    * Save the setting using the "Add" button.

    Also I would make sure that windows firewall is turned off if you have AVGs firewall running because they conflict badly and cause all kinds of problems. I wish I knew more about avg so I could help you better.

    Been waiting ages to load,doesn't look promising any more, it get stuck at like 75% ,then doesn't move ,starts saying there is error then i have to restart for it to make more progress ,but it looks like it'll never reach the end.Been waiting bout 2 days not as longs as some other people,but it didn't have this problem initially ,it says the client is fully updated but the game itself is not i'm guessing->has nothing to do with my firewall or internet connection, hoping a 'GM' -will know how to fix ,don't really want to download again.

    Thanks for your help (if i get it) :-D

    I'm still having trouble with the loginloop.mpx portion. I told my firewall and avast to leave PWI alone but I'm still getting nowhere further with the update, as far as that goes. Any help? It's been hours and it just keeps trying and failing to get past loginloop.

    **EDIT**

    I didn't think to turn the firewall off completely. I tried that and it finished downloading with no further problems :3
