What a wonderful update, now fix my game (launcher error)

Recommended Posts

As soon as the Halloween update hit APB, it stopped working for me. At 90% of downloading the new files theres just this "error" button instead of play and an empty crash report. Repairing the game through launcher yields the same results but at even lower % done.

A screenshot of that would be nice, so we can see what's happening.

I'm assuming this is a ghost process errorring out the launcher, you can check that with Process Explorer or something similar or just restart the pc

Download failed should just be a simple repair. If that doesn't work, I recommend deleting the Clientfiles.xml file in the game directory and opening the launcher again.

Yeah Im getting the same thing as the other guy. Repair doesnt do anything (it results in the same error). Cant find any clientfiles.xml. Only some zip archives.

Repairing got it to fix it for me. Did u try re-installing then trying again? That seemed to work aswell for me.

So, ill update this later, I'm getting so many constant crashes upon entering a district. It's getting kind of frustrating.

Edit: editing windows registry seemed to have fixed my crashing.

Have you tried just uninstalling, making sure that no files stay behind and then reinstalling?

"just uninstalling" as if it meant something different than deleting the whole game and then redownloading and reinstalling it again. No I havent tried it. Why? Because I had this problem a month or so ago, and it got fixed. Although it could have been something else in the past. The launcher gave me this error because the servers were down, so then when they got up again, it started working. I might have to reinstall sooner or later, but I wonder, is the game even worth playing when you need to reinstall it after every update?

 

When I have time for this again Ill post my progress if any. In the meantime, keep posting solutions if you find any guys. Reinstall is the last option for me. Too many times have I reinstalled for nothing.

So I had a significant amout of AFK time today and managed to let the PC reinstall APB during that time. Good news is that it works. Bad news is that not only all of my settings are gone, but also the login menu stutters a lot, doesnt load the background image properly and the game doesnt even remember my account when I check it. In game the FPS are normal, its just the menu. The graphics in game are super weird, but thats probably because of the graphics settings, got my usual graphics on for a short time after fiddling with the advanced options.
