Posted April 23, 2013 (edited) Starting today it's impossible to launch the game. Whenever I try to patch it gets stuck after patching graphics.jar and sound.jar and getting to META-INF/MANIFEST.MF.Screenshot:Toggling the optional packs does nothing. I looked into the packs folder and it seems the problem is that Windows 7 insists on making the files read-only, so whenever the launcher tries to write to graphics.jar it gets stuck. I tried to delete the packs and I get the same error once it has re- downladed the packs. I have rebooted. I have reinstalled the game. I have tried in different folders on different harddisks. I have tried with a different Windows user.I even reinstalled Windows (due to other bugs, but I figured this was a good time to do it). The problem still persists.Going into to the parent folder in Windows and de-selecting "read only" makes Win 7 remove the "read only" on all files and subfolders, but as soon as any file is written to the folder everything is read-only again. Normally I would have suspected it was a problem with my Windows, but with a clean reinstalled Win 7 I am at a loss. I still suspect it's still somehow related to a local problem, but this is really strange. And I didn't have the problem until today.Edit: I tried copying over the packs directory from my laptop (which runs the game without problems). It still gets stuck at exactly the same point. User access control is disabled. Edited April 23, 2013 by DKSprocket Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 23, 2013 Downloading the packs directly actually worked for me. Yippie!The links for the packs can be found here: http://www.wurmpedia.com/index.php/Common_Solutions_to_wurm_bugs_%28Beta%29#The_pack_update_has_failedAfter downloading them place them in the Wurm\packs folder.

Posted April 23, 2013 Okay, I got it to work. This is what I did:1. Find your Wurm install directory.2. Delete everything in the packs folder.3. Download the graphics and sound files from here: http://www.wurmpedia...date_has_failed4. Open Wurm client and it should work fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 23, 2013 Manual download of graphics/sound worked, thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 23, 2013 Have you tried downloading all of these and placing them into your Packs folder?http://www.wurmonlin...ks/graphics.jarhttp://www.wurmonlin...xperimental.jarhttp://www.wurmonlin...packs/sound.jarI also have the pmk.jar file, but I don't know if everyone else does:http://www.wurmonlin...m/packs/pmk.jarHopefully it helps. This worked for me after all the other suggested methods failed, those 4 files copy and pasted into an empty packs folder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
