patching issue

[Eyes of Origin]

I started my client and it goes thru the patching process but at the end it says

Error applying patch
Error during session
Your client may not be the most recent version.
You may be able to play the game with your current client.

Went to the site and tried a couple of the things to resolve it and still no luck.

I'm running windows 7, tried patching while starting it normally and tried running as admin...

any ideas?

is this in CC and are you running UOassist? i was using uoassist and got this message but it let me in to play!

 

[Eyes of Origin]

yea it is the CC and I tried it with UOA and without...

I can still play, but dont understand the issue with patching.

run the patcher as administrator, may help

run the patcher as administrator, may help

In Vista ive had to run uoa as admin last two UO patches to get them to apply right.

 

[Taylor]

run the patcher as administrator, may help

I second this. That clears up most issues.

tried the patcher as admin and it didnt even start the download process before it went straight to error =(

 

[Storm]

try going in and deleting any files left in the patch folder and then repatch

C:\Program Files (x86)\EA Games\Ultima Online 2D Client\patch

[Eyes of Origin]

[Eyes of Origin]

Ok... any other ideas? I'm thinking delete and reinstall the whole thing at this point.

People really need to pay attention to their patching process.

When I patched, there were several instances where the patching STOPPED, and the game BYPASSED the "failure" message and went to the login screen.

If you CANCEL out of the login screen, and restart UO/UOA, it will generally resume patching where it left off. Sometimes you have to do it several times (last night, it took me five times).

BUT, If you don't notice/ignore this anomaly, and log in, you can permanently damage your install, and the game won't start back up, and you have to either figure out which files were damaged/changed and replace or delete them to get back to proper patching, or do a total reinstall.

The most modern install for the CC from the uoherald webpage is client 7.0.10.0 (compared to the 7.0.13.0 that just got applied). I installed it without problems other than the occasional glitch above on this XP laptop a month ago, when my old HD died and had to be replaced.

It's better than trying to reinstall from any old CD (which are clients that use the old client numbering system, and seem to have issues patching up to current) - which also can take a day of failures and restarts to patch up.

I ended up uninstalling the game last night and reinstalling from the uo website, took me about 20mins and when I started up I had no issues what so ever with the new patch.
So I dunno, guess maybe it got screwed up somewhere, but all good today.
