Just for the record, this friend of mine was about to get a new computer, so we've waited to see if that solved this problem. It didn't.

So, is this a normal behaviour of the updating system? Updating from Issue 4 (the last issue included on the game DVD) really takes SO much?

If it's not the computer, and it's not the game... then what? The ISP? He has cable with Virgin, if that helps... Can this really have to do with the issue?

Thanks a lot for your answer, Gaias.
That was my first thought, too. I tried deleting the checksum file first, with no luck. I even copied mine on his computer, but didnt work either

Hi there, heroes (and... er... villains)!

Look, I have a friend with a weird problem since last patch (the one we had on 24th june, I think).

He downloaded and applied this patch normally, but since then, his game is not working properly anymore.

Every time he runs the launcher, it performs a checksum of the whole game, then it says "downloading file manifest". Looks like nothing happens for some minutes, then it starts downloading files, for quite a long time, then it starts checksumming again.... and the cycle starts over again.

He has tried uninstalling and reinstalling from the DVD, but it keeps doing the same.... What could be the problem? Any suggestions? I've checked a lot of posts here, but nothing seemed to be the solution...

Thanks a lot in advance!

Here I paste a list from the blog of the SG "Bringers of Hope":

Rooms:
Control room 100.000 Needed for the rest of the base
Energy room 150.000 Needed for the rest of the base
Workshop 100.000 Needed to give salvage some use

Functional items for the rooms
Mainframe 150.000 Needed for the rest of the base
Basic Generator 225.000 Needed for the rest of the base
Basic Worktable 25.000 Needed to give salvage some use (tech types)
Basic Forge 25.000 Needed to give salvage some use (arcane types)

Total 775.000 (wow!)

And if you're planning to get into PvP between bases (raids and so), you're going to need medical structures, and defenses. Just a simple corridor, almost the smallest defense structure (1x2 squares, very small) costs 3.000.000 prestige.

I dont think any normal SG could afford that. Most of the SG dont have 20-30 active members, and I dont know too many players in the SG's I'm member of who play 5 hours a day

Bases shoulnt cost as much as real houses! lol
