It has come to my attention that the patcher of neocron launcher fails to patch the client due to a rights error.
This is bacause the patcher is trying to patch files that are in the program files. The program files need to be allowed to be edited by windows vista file manager and the patcher does not ask for it. It just trys to patch the files.
-- Here is the solution. --
Go into your installation directory.
(usually C:/Program Files/... )
Click once on the Neocron2 folder.
(so it is highlighted)
Drag the Neocron2 folder from the Program Files folder onto your Desktop.
(Accept all security messages)
Open the Neocron2 folder from the desktop.
Double click on NeocronLauncher.exe
Click Play Neocron 2.
Leave it to download the patches and install them.
When the patching is complete DO NOT click Play Neocron.
Click on the [X] to close the window.
Highlight the Neocron 2 folder and drag it back into the Program Files folder.
Accept all of the Vista Secutiry Messages and let it put the files abck into the folder.
Close all the windows and start Neocron up again.
-- End of solution --
I hope this solves the problems that people will have when swiching over to vita in the next few months.
Hopefully KK will fiddle with it to make it compatible to vista.
