    That's because we edited every single texture. :)
    every single texture for the expansion or the entire game?
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    I jw, I heard someone say they had downloaded 1.5 TB while patching

    They probably meant 1.5GB. Even on the fastest internet download speeds, it would take a week to download 1.5TB ;)

    With Disable-Ondemand-Patching checked, the Patch size of this download is 5114MB
    I am currently holding at 3313.4mb/5114mb , Received 2078.1mb - 64%

    At this time, my CPU is getting active with the process, either waiting with all its might, or doind stuff in memory/cpu with the patching.....

    So, for us noobs in the audience, if we cancel out will we restart the patch after maintenance at 61%? Or will we have to start from scratch?

    When you restart at patch it might say it's going back to 0, but it keeps everything you have already patched. It just starts from 0 again with whatever's left. So if you have a 3 gig patch and you patch 1.5 gigs and stop. It says you stop at 50%. When you restart it says 0%, but you're only patching 1.5 gigs - so you're at 0 of 1.5 rather than 0 of 3.
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    It seems to be restarting for me. it starts back off at 0, and the download size stays the same.


    What's worse, since it patches after you leave the game, when you rleanch, you have to first repatch to the current patch (though that's only ~3 MB), then close the game then the paatch starts off from scratch.

    I noticed if I cancel a pre-patch, it will freezes when trying to pre-patch again unless i delete the pre-patch files in the game folder.

    I'm glad it's not just me. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    That's true for regular patching. Pre-patching seems to restart completely, but like tuskin67 said, it looks like closing it halfway through breaks it.

    They are already doing maintenance on tribble. Might as well wait until it comes back up and patch properly then....
    Me, I am going to go play some GTA4 to pass the time before bed :)

    Patching has moved from the prepatching after starting the game, to full patching with the regular launcher.


    3312.4 / 5113mb .... 64% patching ....

    The difference between 62 & 64 might be explained by the level of your previous tribble install.

    Just chiming in as another patcher who is stalled at 64.1%.

    The Star Trek Online.exe Cryptic Game Launcher is consistently using 13% CPU but seems to be doing nothing.

    This happened during the prepatch a couple hours ago and now, with a computer restart between to make sure it isn't my box.

    Please feed the hamsters.

    bit slow on the uptake; they're already aware of it

    POsted in another thread that enabling "patch via proxy" seems to fix the problem. It seems to be working for me this way!

    prepatch locked at around 42%. I tried again after dinner. Made it to 61.5% Probably too many trying to download too big of a patch.

    Same here - obviously, the download speed is not optimal, but at least I'm making a dent on that last 1.8 GB.

    Patch via proxy, folks - it's in the launcher options.

    This patcher gets to 1% and it stays there. This is an connectivity issue on there end so i'm not too worried about it. If they fix thats great if oh well if they don't it's just a game.

    Got to 62% with patching on demand disabled, then switched to patching on demand and it doesn't even start, just sits at 0%.

    Left the patching window up and it just kicked in. Go, baby, go! : ) (like what you'd say at a rocket launch not by North Korea :P )

    Have you guys tried patching by proxy?

    OK......As others suggested, I patched using the proxy in the options.

    But.........as soon as I logged in on my Romulan I received the "It's a Fake" accolade. LMAO! :D

    Proof! safake.jpg
