Downloading the Neriak content

[Melesandrei]

I just bought and installed the EoF all-in-one pack and had a very difficult time downloading with Vista.  After asking on this forum I learned I have to run as administrator.  Finally I get to play!!! Now I realize that the evil fae race and the city of Neriak are a separate download.  After having such difficulty with the initial set-up I am reluctant to mess with the game in order to download this additional content even though I would like to experience the city of Neriak. Has anyone had problems downloading this content?  Am I worried for nothing?  I am probably just paranoid but after several days of frustration I don't want to screw up my chances to play.

<p>I've been trying to download it since the day it was released.  Mine keeps getting hung up on a Neriak.Vpk file.  I'm yet to figure out what to do..  but then again, i'm a tech idiot )</p>

<p>To download the Neriak stuff you need to go into your preferences (theres a button under the big red play button called Preferences) and check the box that says download additional game content. Downloading it should not cause any problems (other than the ones youve already found with Vista <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />)</p>

Thanks for the replies.  I have seen the button you can click that says register expansion under the login button but I have not checked the preferences section. I am not even sure that is the Neriak content.  I do not want to run into the same problem as the above poster where the download is stuck.  I will look into that this evening and I may bite the bullet and give it a whirl.  After figuring out the run as administrator thing the Vista problem at least seems to have been solved.

Remember Neriak is consider optional content for download

I believe it is just additional content. I have also run into the "Must run as Admin with Vista" issue.
