OctoWow - Forums

After the launcher update my progress is stuck on:

"Update available!

Download incomplete. Click update to finish.

UPDATE"

Troubleshooting:
- PC restart
- VPN on/off
- Fresh client install
- Multiple restarts of the launcher .exe
- All files as exception in Antivirus

None helped.

Same for me, tried a fresh install after the update because I was having some issues, now can't even download the client

Same here. keeps saying there is an update available, and the download is incomplete. i can click update, but returns to the same message.

Found a way around this by:

1: Close the launcher
2: Clean out the entire octo wow folder location but leave the folder itself intact
3: Download the client through the torrent on the website
4: Transfer the client's contents into the octo wow folder that the launcher is set to
5: Open the launcher again, it should recognize the new files in the folder as being up to date
6: Press Play

You'll lose your key bindings and all that jazz, but you can at least play. My stuff used to CTD whenever I brought up my skill book or my professions, but now that seems to work just fine.

Holy moly what is happening today .... every 5 seconds another bug, crash or problem with the game or launcher.
Damn ...

Same here. I posted about it in greater detail in https://octowow.st/forum/viewtopic.php?p=8239#p8239

I updated to a later version of GE-Proton (Using 'LATEST' variant, which is 11-5, iirc). ENOTSUP error went away.
