Authentic Old-School Mabinogi Experience
Launcher Thoughts
Posted at 05-28-17, 02:10 pm Link | #1
My situation; had mabi pro installed on a computer properly, computer went kaput. I pulled the hard drive temporarily to get my crap off it, including mabi pro, then replaced the hard drive in the kaput pc and shipped it off, it was replaced. Moved my mabi pro into a different directory on the new pc. Checked the site, found a new launcher is available and the old one's no longer applicable. Dealt with that.
Moving on. Can the launcher be tweaked to continue an interrupted download? At this moment, my launcher wants to do 224_to_225.zip. I made one attempt last night, got 80% done, then the dl froze through the launcher. I closed the launcher and re-opened to get the message "Failed to update: Patch files already exist!" I had to delete the dl that was nearly done to get it to attempt again. So i started it when i got up again this morning. Might've been 15-20% through, when it told me it failed to verify signature or something, not sure of the exact message just going off memory. So at the moment, i'm manually patching through the guide available here, hoping i'm doing it right.
It would just be more convenient to simply open the exe and update, and if something happens knowing that it will just resume where it left off. I don't know how feasible this is for the launcher, just that the thought is nice. Especially for people whose net goes out regularly, or just having a bad day.

Posts: 2147It does resume where it left off, at least at the last patch.
It won't resume the download, so you have to delete the current patch, but it will resume it's overall progress since it patches on-the-fly as soon as it finishes downloading the current patch and that progress is persistent.
If you get stuck at 255_to_226 and it hiccups, it will restart 255_to_226 (after patch file deletion) -- however there's usually no way to actually resume 255_to_266 because 99.9% of the time, the file is already corrupted beyond fixing. This applies regardless of how many patches are required for finishing.
To make it actually resume the download, it is indeed infeasible because you'll end up in a situation where it will resume, and then just have to restart it anyways because the signature verification will fail (checksum) due to it being corrupt. Thus, you'll just waste more time.
