Cannot get Normandy update to install.

[Missionbug]

Hello guys, I have been attempting to get the latest update running since release day but here I am still having no luck.

 

The launcher downloaded the update, took around nine hours, it went to initialise and then posted a failed message.

 

I have tried removing the update folder (I am non Steam) and it analised the game but nothing to cure the issue.

 

I have been able to launch it but each time either I get this message:

 

 

Or the depending on aircraft it crashes to desktop!

 

This happens for all the WWII stuff aircraft and tanks.

 

However, I have been able to get the WWI stuff to fly:

 

 

If I navaigate through the update folder it looks like there are files there that could actually be the update but there they remained:

 

 

 

I have tried removing the update folder a few times but all it does is download various files about the check.

 

Everything is paid for and although I did move the game to my E drive at one time the various Normandy updates and others over the last few years have been okay and installed without drama.

 

I tried to download the whole install again fresh but that is something in the order of 40Gig, at the rate my internet flows it would take me a a week at least, I hate to think what the electricity bill would be for having the PC run continuously for the complete download so I am hoping there is a cure for this with what I already have installed.

 

Any thoughts guys please on what might have gone wrong?

 

Take care and be safe.

 

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

If you have active mods try disabling them and turn mods off at game start up.

Good luck!

Hello Dauntless, as a rule I always turn off any mods using the JSGME before any update but the mods on is ticked and so far all updates worked, this is the first I ever had this issue with this particular series since it started up, ten years is ti now!

 

I have tried changing log in but that changed nothing either.

 

Anyway, I will give it a go with mods turned off and try and launch the analiser again to see what happens.

 

Thank you very much for the assist, really appreciated.

 

Take care and be safe.

 

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Hello again Dauntless, I tried but everything is just the same so I have begun downloading the whole game again.

 

Take care and be safe.
