failed to get /patches/patchlist.txt

[bordoixe]

ok ,so i downloaded the full installer and done with the install. When i start the client on the desktop a box appears that says "failed to get /patches/patchlist.txt" and then the game wont patch. I'd really appreciate your help guys

What OS are you using?
Have you tried re-opening the patcher?

[bordoixe]

im using windows vista. Yes ive already tried re-opening them and re-installing them. I also tried the sakray patcher and it does'nt patch. And i' m wondering if my other RO client is messing up the patcher but i really doubt it coz i put them separately and in separate drives too. This is really frustrating..

It tends to do that a lot with Vista. You may have to try serveral times. If that fails, restart your computer then try again.

It takes me about 3-6 times to get it to work.

I'm having the same problem. I am able to run the game but i think whenever i come across someone with a custom item the game crashes, mostly whenever i warp to pront center. I too have vista and tried reinstalling, retrying, and even restarting my comp but i can't seem to patch.

is there a file for the latest patch only? i tried the full install and the mini-install but they seem like the same to me and did not solve the problem. i also can't update sakray either. whenever i try it just shows a lot of ?'s on the bottom and doesn't do anything. i don't think this is the problem tho.

I would appreciate any help on this matter. I just don't want to play, avoiding the center of pront all my life. or whoever that one person is that has the item that makes my game crash.

I have the same problem as the original poster. However, I've tried multiple times to start the patcher - perhaps close to 30 - and I still get the same error message.

I run Windows 7. I'm going to try and reinstall after this post.

Edit: Re-installation is no help. :c I'll check if it's the firewall blocking the patcher from connecting to the Internet.

Edit2: It's not the firewall. I'm stumped.

[Incarn]

I'd really like some type of reply? Even just a "I'm not sure at all if this will work, but try it out" would be nice.

I've been able to play RO without patching, as long as I avoided the middle of Pront and any areas that have potentially custom patches, but I was dumb and went to Brasilis on my main acolyte. Now I cannot log on her as the game immediately crashes, and she took very valuable items and almost all of my z with her.

Here, the error code:

Usually when the game crashed like that, customs are the cause. So Full Installer should help.
However, do u happen to have another server in hero folder? it may cause problem too.

[GM-Aki]

As Seiki mentioned, make sure you have no other server installed in the folder. Make sure you have admin rights and that you used the full installer.
