Hello.

I've tried downloading and installing PWI from three different sites, including the ordinary from here.

Everytime I've done it, I keep getting the same issue.

Does anyone know how to fix this?..
It's datapack1 and 2 which doesn't work. If I download them so I have to unzip the files it tells me they're broken.

    Do you have a firewall? (<_< It'd be silly not to, of course)

    Sometimes downloading the sensitive files for the client through firewalls can damage them and cause them to be corrupted. Try dropping your firewall for updating the game and then putting it back up. =)

    Just tried this, and still didn't do any effect... "Files are corrupted" b:sad

    =( Similar problems have been addressed here. Maybe it would help you to look or ask there?

    Particularly 4a.
    I was working with updating the client on four different machines this morning. On one, I stopped the auto download in favor of the manual patch, but the patch claimed to be "corrupted" about 20% of the way in. Further attempts to complete the auto download resulted in the elementskill.dll error, and further attempts to patch it manually just ended with the "corrupted" error.

    However, I had already transferred the manual patch to the other three machines, and they were updating relatively normally. In the end, I opted to just reinstall PWI entirely and then apply the 580-612 patch instead. This seems to have worked. (be sure to delete that Pando Booster, kids)

    The problem is that I haven't gotten to the patching part yet. This is happening while trying to install the game (meaning before I even have the launcher)...

    O.o Oh my. What are you using to unzip them?

    Sorry if I didn't get it the first time, I haven't slept yet today. b:surrender I'm a forum slave.

    Well, my post wasn't clear enough, so it's my mistake.

    I've tried both using IZArc and using winRAR, so far neither worked..
