<p>Is it re-downloading the entire game, or is it just updating the game files?</p><p>What is the build version of EQ2 that you have?</p>

[Totengraeber]

<p>hi</p><p>i am at work so i don'y know the build number but i would imagine it's current since i was playing fine till i dl'd the launcher a couple of days ago.</p><p>Also it wants to install either 9.2 gig or 11.3 gig of files.  i don't remember which.</p><p>hope that helps with any ideas.</p><p>Thanks.</p>

<p>10-12GB sounds like the entire GU set.</p><p>I'd be checking firewall and security software settings first up, even disabling them before running the launcher can tell you if they are affecting the update process.</p><p>If you're still having issues after that can you tell if the launcher does a scan of your current files, or just goes straight into downloading the updates?</p>

<p>What server do you normally play on?  It's possible that the game is download a different region's version of the game. </p><p>Open the station launcher, sign in, and open the 'station' option in the top right.  In that area you will see a 'languages' section.  Make sure the language/flag listed match the region you were playing in previously.  A US server will use the English option with a US flag next to it and so on.</p><p>Let us know if you're still having difficulty after that step.</p>
