Patching Loop - Never ends.

foxwaterfoxwater Member Posts: 48 Arc User
Everytime I reload Tribble, the game will patch. Without fail.

After that, sometimes it loads and plays the server, other times it says version mismatch and crashes.

On demand patching is disabled.

Patch varies, it went from a 1gb, to a 3gb to a 6gb then back to a 3gb patch.

    Same here...
    Goes back and forth between a 3780MB patch and a 4156MB patch every time I quit the game and then Log back in.

    The 3780MB patch is the one that says "Mismatch" each time.

    I have the exact same error. the 3780MB patch seems to be what is currently the live version on Holodeck-Server. And I think that is whats causing the version mismatch.

    edit: it seems to have to do with launching STO via Steam. If I start it with Arc I don't have that problem.

    Likewise. Patched amount: 898KB / 4867KB. Received goes from about 88MB back to zero in a loop.

    I have been opening with Arc and having the same mismatch and constant patching as well.

    I can keep current version of patch by Not using arc or steam. A direct launch seems to just keep the information.

    BUG: Version Mismatch Loop

    Description: Game Patch Loop

    CATEGORY : Patch


    Tribble Server Patches with one of two size files. The smaller size patch* causes the Version Mismatch.

    *Just in case anyone gets a different size patch then the sizes that are listed in previous post.

    ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    This is the never ending loop of hell. Always having to wait for the server to patch, not once, but twice just to get onto the Tribble Server. Please help put an end to end this "Year of Hell" scenario.

    The Krenim have infested my computer with some type of chroniton malware. I must find the phase variance to negate this effect. Where are the Borg when you need them??

    ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    ***Note: If you get the loading screen for New Dawn, your game version WILL mismatch.

    I would but I can't get patched back to the current build. Every attempt ends up getting stuck in that infinite Received loop.

    I did manage to get in three times yesterday, but this has been plaguing me as well. I tried for 2 hours today to get back in with no luck.
