This has uncrashed the computer I had that this was disagreeing with, but word of warning: Performance is extremely, extremely bad. To say that you have to run it on low settings would be an understatement. The resulting graphics will look like something that was primitive back in 1980. But you'll be able to play! You'll be completely BLIND, but you'll still be able to doff and claim your tribble and Lobi. Have a friend lead you around. You'll need it.
Remember to modify your StarTr~1/Live/Localdata/Gameprefs.pref settings to set RenderScaleX and Y to a really small value, like, say, "0.03125". Otherwise you will regret it! Slideshow!
So much for the patch. Sorry guys, but the patch did NOT work. If you paid for subscriptions, I would demand a refund. I realize that Cryptic is trying to fix these launcher problems but they aren't going to be able to fix them.
Everyone might want to find a game that doesn't crash.

Cryptic upgrades to Season 8 on November 12th and fraks up the STO Launcher. Here we are, nine days later, and it's still frakked up. Now, I realize that Cryptic is trying to fix this but this is unacceptable. Now, we're going to be forced to wait until next Friday to see any new patch.
This is NOT *GOOD*

Cryptic did not fix the problem. Nice job. I told everyone that the patch would not work and I was right. This is nine days already and we won't see a fix, if they come up with one, until next friday. Nice job, Cryptie. But, I think an open revolt is starting to fester.
All we want is for the launcher to be fixed.

Launcher? what about the game in general?
EDIT: I mean really. nothing is wrong with the launcher. at least on my end.
as I saw it the launcher hardly patched anything..it was way too fast which is unusual..and again if tribble worked for me since day one of season 8 but holodeck crashes on start up what was changed to fix it supposedly ? anyways heres my ticket number if it helps at all : 25664664...sigh* been playing this game since launch 2010 when I bought the game from a store..yes those building that sell stuff..and been playing it ever since..so its kinda frustrating you know
Yeah! It'll pay off, 10 years from now. In the meantime, each day that goes by just pours more salt into the wound. I'm as patient as the next person but the longer this goes on, the more problems it creates.

At this point, the launcher cannot even make it through to the game.
Likewise for me.
Before the patch I got as far as a totally black, inaccessible character select screen with audio.
Since the patch I only get as far as the Legacy of Rom splash screen and the program stalls. Only way I can stop it is via its "Not Responding" entry in Windows Task Manager.
No error code that I can report, no physical crash, nothing - just a stall.
*sigh*
Wake me up when you fix it for real Cryptic, I'll be over here - in cryosleep, cos I know how long that's likely to take...

If you still haven't reached the character screen then it won't work.
Brandon says that the ticket 18897741 won't work.

I hoped this was gonna be fixed today
If your ticket was 18897741 like mine...I am going to freak.
EDIT: Going to test anyways.
It probably wasnt. because Brandon said they didnt find a fix for it yet.

Well theres nothing wrong with it on my end.. make sure you report it via cryptic error reporter.
