It's from the Beta from last weekend.

I know you're a user, so just out of interest: Did you get it running on Linux yet?

 

[froot]

Ooh... I got my old .dat file to work. Trying to update that way now.

Should work fine. That's what I used. Mine downloaded 20MB, as a client update.

Oh, if you guys are looking for a beta client link, hereforth:

http://cloudfront.guildwars2.com/pV...4AhkjAVCp0IUp3ptvHlENECYbMWlJ49hwCn1J/Gw2.zip

It will update to the latest GW2.exe and from then on it will update
Back up your gw2stream.dat
Start the gw2.exe
Wait for it to create gw2.dat
Stop
Rename gw2stream.dat to gw2.dat
Start gw2.exe and it will drop from 187000 to 66000 files.

I will be getting the client from a friend though, don't have time for this and my other download requirements "whistling:

And if you don't have previous files? You just run it and get the new client?

So it's safe to download that client?

 

[Spartan]

I am trying it though my downloader looks different than the one in the screenshots above.

 

[Spartan]

Nvm it goes to about 9mb then runs the new downloader. 187000 Files to go.

Will do.....

 

[Deceptor]

If you exit the client will the download resume when you start it up again?

 

[Lycanthrope]

According to froot, yeah

I'm too far ahead to want to risk it

But yes, it will resume.

 

[Spartan]

Dunno lol too scared to stop it. Hope this is fine, though my confidence increased because of the msg displayed on the downloader.

Is it me or is the speed meter incorrect? I am dling at 31kb a sec it says but it is going faster than that.

Yeah, it reads as a quarter of what it actually is. See your bandwidth monitor of choice for a far more accurate reading
