<p>expoO7_rgn_eastern_wastes_vpk must be one hellavu file! It takes longer to download than some whole games! They must talk an awful lot in the Eastern wastes.... been about 2 hours so far.... impressive.</p>

<p>Our servers can send you the game data at rates that would support tens of thousands of concurrent downloading at full consumer speeds.</p><p>However, Station Launcher is giving people issues and we recommend you make the transition to the EQ2 LaunchPad.  I recommend a fresh install but you can select your existing EQ2 folder to avoid some of the re-downloading but there will still be updates but you can log in and play while it does this.</p><p><a href="http://launch.soe.com/eq2" target="_blank">[EQII] LaunchPad</a></p>

<p>As soon as you click Next on Install a New copy it immediately takes you to a window with a field that reads Choose Install Location with a button next to it with '...'  Click the '...' which lets you specify any folder you want.</p>

<p>Your default UI settings are stored within a file called <server>_<character>_eq2_uisettings.xml</p><p>You can copy that file and any other file with your server/character name to export your settings to any other installation folder.</p>
