I need a favour...

I'm currently away from home, and my internet connection sucks. The updater simply will not work, it keeps stopping at fixing files sound.pigg 0 bytes/second. It's taken me several hours to get this far (I've tried twice), but it keeps getting stuck at sound.pigg for some reason. I'd really like to get my client patched up so I can take advantage of the character transfers and take part in the RPS contest.

So, would anyone be kind enough to seed a torrent of just the latest sound.pigg file and link it to me? A direct download won't be any good, as it cuts out every few minutes, so I have to use a torrent.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can do this!

Edit: The majorpatch file would be great too

If someone gets me up and running before Tuesday (RPS contest ends on Wednesday), I'll buy them the Complete Collection booster. That may require some other .pigg files if it gets stuck again though.

I updated to GR through a Starbuck's Free Connection. I did it in 1 hour. Starbuck's or McDonald's network is powered by AT&T free wifi and should help you fix your problem. I can get you the files if this won't work but I need you tell me where to put them. The sound.pigg is 309 MB. Also, how will you get me the collector's edition? I'd like to hear you post this information here so if you fail to live up to your end everyone on the boards will know your a joke.

I may still need help with this, not sure if Resident is going to be able to get it done.

It is illegal thanks for posting your comments. No grass grows under your feet, Golden Girl.

Not opening them, just trying to acquire them so I can play because the updater isn't working here (and I don't blame the updater).

Swimming with swine is heavily discouraged.

Letting someone who can't otherwise update copy the files is not.

Big difference.

Pigg diving and poking around in the contents is for certain. That's not what he wants to do or obviously he could from his own copy.

Not working with those files, direct downloads aren't going to work with this connection, the moment it drops out the file corrupts and the download stops.

By the way, have you tried deleting the "coh.checksum" file? Some times that file goes bad and causes an infinite loop of fixing files.

Don't worry about backing it up, you'll get a new one as soon as you run the updater again.

Yup, plenty of times, and deleting the existing sound.pigg, and the ones before/after it. Nothing works, every time it gets to sound.pigg it just stops

Am currently trying a Steam install, hopefully it will work this way...
