Maintenance - June 9th, 2011

One of my installs still doesn't work. The other one does.
Try copying your client if you still can't log on.

Well, aside from putting in a ticket, not sure what else to try.

This has happened to me before but a restart of GWs always fixed it.

I ended up closing GW & TexMod, running both my installations of GW separately through Multi, closing them & Multi out and then restarting TexMod & GW... and that got it up and running again.
I appreciate the tip!

We have 2 identical comps both running Win7 x64 and was able to connect on one but not the other. Out of curiosity we copied the Dat file over via our ExHD from the one that could to the other and ta-da!! Now we are in-game on both comps. Hope this helps someone.

I already got a reply from them. They suggested that I download the game advisor, use it and supply the information back to them. It will have to wait until after this image thing finishes...
Should I cancel the -image and try this suggestion of lemming?
Edit: NM. My other client is on another hard-drive and I'm borrowing the video card from that system.

I have GW Multilauncher with 6 copies of GW. The original (#1) is still showing "Maintenance" but I am able to log into the rest of my accounts (#2 to#5).
I then made a new copy (#6) from copy (#2) and works like a charm. I deleted Copy (#1)
I hope it make sense.

Reinstalling worked. it seems to be in the .dat file, because i tried to load the old .dat file, in the reinstalled copy, but still code 167.
so now im downloading all the files again using -image.
thanks anet.

Just restarted the game and it worked.
So try once more if you haven't.

Launched both clients via multi-launch with no issues at all. I launched my original followed by my copy if that's of any interest. I wasn't online when the maintenance started so is that a possible cause of the problems?

It seems you don't really need an old .dat to do it. I did a -image on the current one I had, didn't work. Made a back-up of this latest version on my HDD, uninstalled the game, reinstalled it from the GW client, downloaded ~200 MB of files to log in, logged back out when I got to my chars, copied the .dat back from my HDD and everything worked like normal.

On an odd sidenote, I have no problem logging in, but when I see my character list, there are 2 of each character (basically doubled the character list in the same order, no actually doubling the characters)... Creating a new character resulted in a double too... Something broke during maintenance...
Eramon
I'm not having any issues - at all. Just thought I'd point that out.
payne
still getting error code 227 or whatever - we don't recognise your details ^_^
hoping it's just because of maintenance as I could get on yesterday afternoon

I wouldn't waste time reinstalling and patching up all the zones again. Left my pc for an hour or 2, tried it again after and logged straight in, so who knows what the cause is/was.
