Patch Fail?

EpiCFaCe · November 2011

Woke up to a new update on crossfire, and for the first time ever i have recieved a patch error during my update, so i go to re-download the new version, and crossfire servers are only allowing about 50kb to 150kb (i'm rocking a 2.5mbps internet speed) so after the long dreadful 2 hour wait of downloading. now after i click start on the G4_BOX, i get "Failed to download version.ini" anyone know if crossfire is down, or is it just not playable today?

look. At first - if you want to download CF, use download managers like as Reget etc. I have 8mbps connection and i download full new version of CF in 20 min. (you must use multilink when download, CF support site accept that technology).

never mind. it seems they might have fixed it.

oh and @brodiki1, Using a download manager doesn't differ your download speeds. its all about the server and how much bandwidth the server is taking on in that current time.

Umm, i will never use a malware infested download manager, that's for people that don't know how to browse websites and click links.

Anyways, about the issue i posted. Anyone else recieving the "Failed to download version.ini"?

omg... dude, you must use verified software. if you don't know, check your soft by using this site, for example: http://www.virustotal.com/

Most browsers can download files in 1 stream. Download managers can download software in several streams and by parts. That's more faster when usual download. Read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Download_manager

About your error. I have this error too. I think, what Z8team try to fast fix thats bugs. I think, Z8 must test that updates before mass updating. If z8 need a beta-testers - i want to join to that testers

I agree with the z8 fast updating, should test it first.
