mykaljon Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Often, about half the time, when I log in , the game comes up as downloading to install and I cannot play any characters; can only make a new one while it "installs" the game. So, I have to exit and try again. The game has been installed for years, and it only started this nonsense after one of the patches in the last few months. Does anyone else have this issue? I couldn't find anything like it in the forums. Why does the launcher not recognise the game is installed already? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightblazer Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 The best place to get a resolution for this would be the customer service forum here: http://answers.ea.com/t5/STAR-WARS-The-Old-Republic/bd-p/star-wars-the-old-republic-en There is a common issues thread there, I would check to see if there is a resolution there and if not to post the issue in a new thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_mike Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I'd try forcing the repair first to see what comes up: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=729911 Having said that, if this issue does appear only from time to time, I'm wondering if it's a hardware issue like a cable shorting out and causing bad reads from the drive.
