Launcher Speed Problem
#68831 - 07/19/08 08:12 PM |
I find the connection (download) speed of the launcher quite slow compare with other downloading software. If i download Dungeon Runners through the launcher it would take me 3 days to download the game, and 1 day to update to the newest version. i find that very unpleasant.If i download through the FTP site, it would take only 10 minutes to download the game. But the game is not up-to-date, so i still have to download the update through the launcher... |

Quote: Doubt it is his connection if he is getting good download rate through the FTP site. Not sure why you are having a problem though I know I get very good rates through the launcher (usually better than most download sites). Have you entered a support ticket for it? -------------------- JoeB - Level 100 - Back to a Fighter where he belongs SirOldBottom - Level 49 - Ice Mage Mearlin - Level 29 - Mage Dungeon Runners Map Build 0.110 |

Anyone else noticing this? Did you have an anti-virus program running at the time? -------------------- "Always keep your words soft and sweet in case you have to eat them" Crickette Dungeon Runners Community Manager My Facebook page Official Dungeon Runners Facebook page IdeaRunners.com - Dungeon Runners' currently unofficial suggestion collaboration website http://www.blinggnome.com/ |

Do you have a software or hardware firewall, and if so, do you have them configured to permit the launcher traffic in and out? What other protective software do you have running in the background? -------------------- Khaz: W4 Laker Girl An earthquake's sound, to a girl's guitar, is just another good vibration. |

When I downloaded the game a week or so ago to start playing I think it took me all of 15 minutes (give or take 5 minutes for not sitting there and timing the process) to download, install, register and get playing. Don't know if that helps or is indeed slow. -------------------- Lyllia the *insert whatever adjectives the game feels like displaying at this time* Magess. |
