Hey everyone,

We'll be having server maintenance tonight from 11pm to 1am PST, during which time the PWI servers will not be available. Please plan accordingly!

Tonight's maintenance question:

If your character could compete in the Olympics, what sport would it be in?

Thanks!

- The PWI Team

    Looks like nw map is still not fixed.
    Shame, it's only takes ten seconds to replace it with the proper one. b:bye

    The memory leaked wasn't even addressed at all, no change to the exe.

    I think only S.P is has been brought back to PvE in this patch and maybe few other minor fix of bugs etc

    +1 good point memory leak.

    I haven't run the game in over a year and I currently can't even patch. Is this maintenance the cause of my not being able to start the game or patch it? b:cry

    I think you have to uninstal pwi and re-download and instal.
    Here's some stuff Sizzer wrote in another thread. Maybe that works for you.
    Good luck with it.
    The download might have been corrupted or stopped, but some files might have gotten mixed up too.

    See if this solution works for you that a player suggested:

    1. Go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs (Or Programs and Features, depending on what version of Windows you have), and un-install the Pando Media Booster.
    2. Restart/reboot your computer.
    3. Open your user folder.
    4. Open the Downloads folder. (Location varies depending on what OS you're using). Open the folder where it downloaded the game install files to. (Carefully check the file names.)
    6. Temporarily disable the active or real-time scan for your antivirus and/or firewall software.
    7. Click/run that file and it should run the installer. (If you're using Vista or Newer, Right-Click the file and select "Run as Administrator")
    8. Re-enable the active scan for your anti-virus software.
    9. Add the directory that the client installed the game to, to your antivirus software's exceptions list for active scans and scheduled scans.
    10. Reboot/restart your computer.
    11. Start the game and play!

    Oh and to download pwi completly, use this torrent:

    http://pwi.perfectworld.com/download/torrent

    It worked for me :)

    Compete in sports?

    Well, I'll be using my BM for marathon.

    Moment after marathon started, I would do AOE stun, followed by HF and Fissure for slow effect, after everyone drops to the ground, I use Will of Bodhisatwa to sprint away while genie is charging holy path an absolute domain.
