unable to load network configuration... bundles.xml

[Aner]

<p>I was in game, no problemI zone out of a house, black screen, trying log in servers, unable to connect, quitNo loss in internet, nothing, just out of game like that</p><p>Then I go to restart the game, blue launcher, non-streaming:</p><p>Unable to load network configuration from: <a href="http://lp2.patch.station.sony.com:80/patch/lp2/eq2/bundles.xml" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://lp2.patch.station.sony.com:8...eq2/bundles.xml</a>Station launcher will try again after 5 seconds.</p><p>And now it's flickering that message much more than every 5 seconds.</p><p>I don't even know where to begin to start a fix given it's going to a url :S</p>

<p>Try this link instead, Microsoft updated their Knowledge Base not too long ago.</p><p>[Microsoft VC++ 2005 Service Pack 1] - <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=26347" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.microsoft.com/download/e...s.aspx?id=26347</a></p>

<p>Please make sure you are using our latest LaunchPad, run as an admin, as well.</p><p>I recommend the full download version installed over your existing EQII game folder.</p><p><a href="http://launch.soe.com/eq2" target="_blank">[EQ2] LaunchPad</a></p>

[jolach]

<p>i tried that before i did the vc++ update will do again</p>

[jolach]

<p>i have my SF discs still - think that'd be faster then full redownload?</p>

<p>That's great news <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  Let me know if any new issues arise.</p>

<p>I was having the same problem I went ahead and downloaded the newest version of the patcher for EQ2 but was wondering if there was any plans to fix the launcher, it was really nice to have per you could chat w/ friends out of game through it, use the voice chat through it and also easily access all of the games you played instead of having to run multiple launchers for all of them.  It would be really really nice to see this updated/new one put out.  Any chance for that in the near future?</p>
