Question about downloading everything

What was the command for downloading every gw file at once? You had to put -image or something in the properties screen from your icon? I'm not sure.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Your memory is correct. You need to change the 'target' of your Guild Wars shortcut so that it looks like this (assuming GW is installed in the default location):

The speechmarks are necessary btw.

Thanks alot for your fast answer! I'll get right to it.

what mean "downloading every gw file at once"? While traveling in other town ill be not the long download (for my slow computer is long) because the game load all things at begin, or what?

btw im wrong or we can run this game without the CD inserted (Nightfall)? strange, is 1st time i see some like that. Finally some smart programers

I assume the command actualy prevents streaming of data - Taking longer to load areas but improving your ping

streaming? (my english is bad). I have a low computer and i want to prevent these long traveling downloads or laging in towns with many players, but dont know how.

Wrong. This step pre downloads and uncompresses all GW files up to date that are relevant to your copy of the game. This makes it so that load times when going into different zones is minimal due to NO files ever being needed to uncompress during this time.

Ping is subjective and is not affected by this. Ping is only determined by each individual's ISP, PC and other settings.

cheers

Oh my dear lord - I do not feel like downloading 617000 files

Just do it, get it done, it's worth it.

"C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -image

Run it before you go to work or bed or something, unless you are a sleepless bum like me.

If you run the line command when no update is needed it will just close, so don't make it your regular game shortcut command.

I have 3 shortcuts: 1 with my login, 1 fresh'n clean, and one update:-image.

Only 22000 files left, Can't belive I just sat through all that
