Hey Dear Admins and such.

I played on this server (Sanctuary) orsomething,

I stopped for a while. cause some irl problems.

Anyway. i was bout to download and instal PWI RT

Downloading from Torrent no problems.

Opening the rar file and pasting it into the map i applied it goes good until we come to the files
Data1.pck
Data2.pck
Both Gives me the massage These files are Broken Please ReDownload the files and try again,

Yeah sure after 5 times of downloading Even with diff browsers still same problem.

Then we come at Direct download button .

Ok downloading the installer.Exe works.

But now i get this message when it comes to the same 2 files
Data1.pck
Data2.pck

A checksum has failed. one couse of this is enebeling the "DMZ" settings on your router.

The DMZ function can sometimes corrupt; it is more likely with very large ones, but any size file could be affected.

You may need to disable the DMZ settings on your router for thise file to download properly!

But Wth? i dont use a Router., never used one. so how can this Error come forward while i dont use one ? Please help.

My system is running on Windows 7 32 bits

Well i tried Direct download. well this time it hasnt gave me an error when downloading files from the Exe.
but at the end when it downloaded all files and the game starts to install. it tells me incorrect file version ?

    I seem to be having a similar problem. Everything seems to download/install fine, but when it comes to verifying, it says that datapack1 is broken and I need to download it again. I've deleted everything and re downloaded everything three times and it is still not working. "Datapack1 is broken..." I don't get it. Any help?

    Here are some things that might help you...

    Add the game folder and/or game file to the exceptions list in your firewall or antivirus software.

    Example: C:\Perfect World Entertainment\Perfect World International

    You also might need to temporarily disable your antivirus, MS Security Essentials or Windows Firewall long enough to download, install, patch and login to get into the game, and then turn it back on. Sometimes disabling may not help and you will need to add an exception for the game folder.

    It might be Windows, Windows Firewall, Admin (such as running the game as Administrator), UAC, network, or antivirus settings that you will need to change so that they aren't blocking or throttling the game.

    You can also try changing your proxy settings for Internet Explorer 8, to have them turned off here: Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN Settings > and then untick all of the proxy settings.

    If you still need additional help, please Search our Knowledge Base for the terms mentioned above. Let us know what you tried and what errors you got when you reply to us.

    Thanks!

    Hello, yeah I have a problem too. Mine isn't like you guys' actually. I have a new laptop, a Sony VAIO actually, and when I try to download Perfect World, it says that my computer isn't allowing the PMB.exe servers to make changes to the computer, :o even though when when the system asked me to allow pmb to make changes to the computer I accepted it.... I tried deactivating the UAC, setting pmb. exe as an exception, so it could pass through my firewall, I tried running it in ADMIN mode... I have no idea what to do next, seriously, my eyes are bloodshot from looking at the computer screen so long. And I've wanted to play PWI for almost 2 yrs now, and when I buy a laptop, look what happens... *Sigh* anyway, if someone could help me I'd be really grateful.. I've run outta ideas T.T

    Winrar, ALzip, I think even Winzip opens .rar files. It's a compressed file format.

    What I don't understand is why no one uses Google or some other search engine to find these simple answers out for themselves.

    I have tried downloading and installing several times. Every time it says one of the data.pck files is broken. I have turned off my firewall, antivirus, and DMZ on my router but nothing is working. I starting to get very frustrated. Any ideas on what i can try?

    I'm having download issues too. I read something about there being nine parts, but I only got four:
    AutoRun
    check.md
    data1.pck
    data2.pck

    I've clicked on all of them, and none of them will allow me to install, so I assume none of these are the installation program. Can I please have the individual parts that I am missing, instead of having to download the whole thing again?

    there are a total of 18 files in the installer amounting to a little over 4GB of data. Looks like you don't have all of it.

    I'm confused about why it's so hard to download and install the game.

    Sometimes, my computer likes to cut off downloads before they're done. This isn't the first time it's happened, but I just need the individual parts that I'm missing.

    you're missing about 3/4 of it, so download it again because you haven't really downloaded it yet.

    Fix your computer.

    Or, use the torrent method.

    Whatever you do, stop posting in this thread that got necroed and start your own.

    Your system is currently not allowing acess to our servers.
    Check your Firewall and/or security software settings to allow
    PMB.exe to run.
    Visit the Help page or contact us at
    downloader@pandonetworks.com for further assistance
    Would you like to retry the connection
    PLEASE HELP!

    1. Don't Necro Threads.

    2. The Pando installer basically sucks major donkey balls. Use the Torrent method.
    1. Download and install torrent software. (I recommend utorrent.)
    2. Click on the "Download Torrent" link on the Downloads page.
    3. Once the download is finished, go to the directory your completed downloads are in and you will see a file named "PWI_v658_Installer.rar".
    This is a compressed file. you will need something to unpack it. (I use ALZip)
    If you right-click on the file, there should be an option to "Extract to 'PWI_v658_Installer\'". Click that and it will unpack the file into a directory with the same name as the file.
    4. Temporarily disable the active scan for your antivirus software.
    5. Once the file is done unpacking, navigate to that folder. (Hint: It should be "Downloads\PWI_v658_Installer".
    6. In this folder there is a file called "install.exe". Run it. (If you have Vista or newer, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator.)
    7. Follow the directions to install the client.
    8. After the client is done installing, add the directory where it installed to the exceptions list for your antivirus software. (The default folder location is "C:\Perfect World Entertainment\Perfect World International")
    9. Launch the client using the icon that was placed on your desktop during the install and let it update.
    8b. Launch the client and then close it before it updates, and then download the manual patches and install them. (Manual method is about 80% faster than automatic.)
    10. Play

    1. Because that is what the forum is for. and 2. Obviously we have or else we wouldn't be asking. I tried to figure it out myself for the first 2 days and i am having the EXACT problem that they are. and when i google it wanna know what comes up? PWI FORUMS!
