To the mods. The official download mirror on domeofyork.com might be corrupted. i downloaded it last night this morning and when i went to run an install it came back saying corrupt files and wouldnt open. i figure you would need to know this due to the 2.2 testing and people needing to get a new client possibly. It could be a 1 off incident and something went fubar on my end but i thought it worth posting. wasnt sure who to inform via email either so im doing it here.

thanks ;)

Dont try and get any +1s forum whores :)

ok. ive tried a second mirror and it still said the file is corrupted. does anyone have a definite certified mirror that works. im stuck here a tad as most isps in australia have a download limit and im scared to go over mine and have the net access capped at a certain speed. i tried one us west coast one and the official one. both times they came back corrupt. please help.

did you download the "complete" file or the bit-parts one? i had to reinstall 3 days ago and got the bit parts off of dome of york and installation went fine

failing anything else doc, if u find a mirror but ur not certain i'll download from it and check it works then let you know so you dont risk ur limit

It didnt work for me from domeofyork.com before either (and all the other mirrors were painfully slow). I had to get a link to it from the forum. Not really the best for new customers (I think it took me about 6hours to download it from DomeOfYork.com and didnt fancy doing the same again incase it was another corrupt install).

edit: this is the link to the decent mirror : http://ultimate-hq.info/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=5

I downloaded the full 2.1 client from the Dome of York mirror yesterday. I've just installed and patched it succesfully. I've also done a file check as well, no errors found.

Your best bet is to download the RARS, and check the MD5 sums.

Mish. thanks mate your a star. i think im going down the ebay route to buy a copy possibly.

Numb, same. ive tried one of the us mirrors and it was wicked but it was corrupt. im tryin to use 4player.de but its slow. i figured this was distance though.

brammers. erm, it was the full install i tried. i dont know what the md5 part is though. maybe the rars woulda been a better idea but im not sure at mo whether i dare risk it :( stupid aussie isps :S

i downloaded it from 4player.de and got a corrupted download as well. I installed it onto 2 harddrives however and both copies run fine after patching and filefix wotsit in the launcher.

+1 ^^
