Launchpad

Post by renfoe mcfatty »

Cant access game using the Launchpad. When I click on the icon, it takes a while for the Launchpad splash screen to come up. Then the rotating circle, indicating some type of file check. Then a black box, which does nothing for a while. Then a smaller box labeled Launchpad shell, with a status bar saying installing updates.

update: The update box disappears, then the black box reappears. It is the same size as the Launchpad window, so far nothing....

My launchpad is also going black after loading. When highlighted it reads "Unknown error occurred". Is anyone able to get in? Are we running older version of launchpad or something or is everyone down?

Does Daybreak have tech support? Or were they laid off too ??

I'm getting same thing- I get the updating install then black box of death.

If you clicky in the black box near the top and highlight the area you will see: ERROR: Unknown Error Occurred.

I posted to SOE's site a few minutes ago. A few people have also posted so it looks like an ubiquitous issue.

I opened a service ticket, hopefully not the first person from Norrath to do so but maybe it'll help.

I was getting the shell updating box to appear then it would close. Now I get nothing when I try to launch EQ. Can't keep trying all day so off to do more productive stuff!

Way to go Daybreak Game. I think they need to take the Day out of their name!

Its not them. We're getting DDoS'ed by somebody. Wish there was a good way to trace that back and slap em of the net.

I used the patcher bypass-workaround. I can get to the login screen for EQ, enter my password, and get server timeout error.

Update: online now using the workaround. I was using wrong password, or maybe just lucky, and prolly will be kicked soon (

Yep, got kicked after about ten mins. Just fyi, while online, the lag made it almost unplayable
