    Dang it. No change. It's been a good while since I installed on my Desktop and this laptop has no disc drive. Downloaded all the files listed in the posts, opened them in the order listed...I'm stumped.

     

    Edit: And whatever I did with my laptop seems to have removed my Lassiter toons...*headdesk*

    Got the launcher installed and updated, ran compatibility, hit the button and see the "I'm thinking about it" swirling icon and nothing.

    This laptop:

    Device name    LAPTOP-MDJ6FU19
    Processor    AMD Ryzen 7 3750H with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx     2.30 GHz
    Installed RAM    16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable)
    Device ID    58EB9702-44A4-4E93-A158-40A104E4465C
    Product ID    00325-96592-51343-AAOEM
    System type    64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
    Pen and touch    No pen or touch input is available for this display

     

    I have added a 1 TB drive and upgraded from 8 GB Ram to 16 GB.

     

    OS Build info:

    Edition    Windows 10 Home
    Version    20H2
    Installed on    ‎11/‎28/‎2020
    OS build    19042.985
    Experience    Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.2020.0

     

     

     

    Running as admin, I'd appreciate any ideas or suggestions. Thanks all.

     

    Edit: I installed the launcher and associated files on the additional drive, didn't think that would be an issue....

    Thanks for the heads up! Been seeing that suggested update recently. I always wait awhile before applying updates such as these until I get the mostly all clear from some trusted websites. I'm sorry for your troubles, here's hoping your recovery is successful.

    I have two accounts, oldest is Gordo, the other is Lassiter. When I start the launcher using Lassiter, everything functions normally, no issues. When I log in Gordo account, most times I stay in game about 10 minutes then everything stops. Seems to lose connection to the server, I'd appreciate any ideas or input. Thanks in advance!

     

    Edit: Additional information...spoke to someone in game, forget their handle was having the same problem..thanks!

     

    Additional Edit: Please disregard or delete this post. Seems the server restart cleared the issue up fine. Thanks!

    Power-board with surge protection.. first thing that I plug in at the wall before any computer — well worth it!
    GL with the move, I feel for ya,,.  That 'look at all the stuff' moment, followed by scratching your head at the new place and thinking.. how on earth did it all fit in the old place?!?!

    Had double surge suppresors, hit the older one, not the Dell...go figure. I have donated most of the stuff I've accumulated over the last 21 years in this house to Salvation Army and anything nobody in my family wants is going to the curb. Plan is to grab a Dodge Ram Ecodiesel 1/2 ton (trade my cool little KIA Soul+) and pick up an Airstream Basecamp 20X or a Jayco Featherlite 20BH. Me and the Doggos are getting the band back together and hitting the road full time. As a federal retiree one of the few perks is being able to volunteer at the federal parks and stay free for 30 days at a stretch. Then there's always the BLM land, no charge to stay boondock for 2 weeks at a stretch and failing that, my daughter and her crew are way out on 20 acres out in the dinkyweeds. Plan to see our beautiful country before I check out to the great beyond.

     

    And yes, definitely downsizing. In a MAJOR way... :)

    I had 2 desktops until my older box took a surge...you guys are seriously SERIOUS! Kudos! Now I'm down to my Dell Studio XPS and a rather new laptop which I haven't loaded anything but Steam on. Getting my home ready to sell has eaten up a lot of my time. Never realized how much "stuff" I accumulated over the last 20 years here...

    Hi Gordo,

    You should be able to donate using Paypal even without a Paypal account - they have a feature where you can get them to make a payment for you and then bill your credit card, without even logging in,

    Because of your concerns about Paypal (in)security, I thought I'd mention that it's possiblte to create a credit card alias via https://privacy.com/ (which connects through to your real credit card) and then give that alias to Paypal. I haven't done it myself, but I'm guessing you could set up and use the alias once, wait for the donation to ENB to go through to your card account, and then cancel the privacy.com alias-card number so if the info at Paypal is compromised, your real card number can't be obtained from Paypal, the alias-number won't work any more anyway, and your real card number is safe (of course, as long as privacy.com is safe!) Privacy.com does display a number of logos of high-profile companies on their web page, implying support/approval of their services).

    Disclaimer: I have no connection to privacy.com, and don't receive anything for mentioning them.

    Thank you for this information, it's always nice to have alternatives and options. I currently have 4 identity protection programs active from so many data breach class action lawsuits in the past so I'm a little gun shy. I will give Privacy a look, this may be the option I was looking for.

    As I have not had a PayPal account for many years now after numerous data breaches and security concerns, (almost daily phishing via email) I was hoping there might be an alternate method for donating. Possibly snail mail checks or a more secure form of funds transfers? Thanks in advance.

     

     

    As an aside, I want to thank the crew who brought our game back to life, it was a monumental undertaking but so appreciated.

    Really enjoying my Terran Scout toon JamisaTS. Great solo class and also a good addition in group hunts. Agree with the others who say Nullfaactor and Afterburn are to be maxed as quickly as possible. One of the best things I experienced was getting the Cygni Express but it seems that mission is no longer available. ? At any rate, there are some truly awesome folks playing, enjoy! ?

    Just as an FYI, i am not a GM (YourpapaTT and all my alts).  I just happened to hear about the Vrix in the sector and came to hunt them, you just got lucky lol

     

    Best Regards

     

    Yourpapa

     

    I did indeed! Well thanks again, your assistance was much appreciated.

     

    Be well.

    My apologies for the Vrix, I did some testing in a quiet corner of that sector & it looks like a few got away from me...

     

    Well thanks much for your post.  No need to apologize but it's appreciated.The paths forward ingame were never easy, there would be no point to playing. Currently raising my RD faction in Muspelheim, slow going but profitable at least. ?

    Last night, my alt, JamisaTS was making the trade run from Fenris to Somerled. On the way back to Somerled I encountered a group of V'rix level 45 at the gate in Odin Rex. Being CL 22, they obviously destroyed me with 2 shots. I searched the forums unable to find anything relevant so made a GM ticket. The GMs on duty were awesome, responded quickly and helped me through the gate. Their suggestion was to post this scenario.The advice they offered was very useful (I will work on raising my RD faction from 610 to 2000+ and take a different route).

     

    It just seemed odd the mobs stayed within 6 Km of the gate to me. Maybe let them move beyond 15 Km for short periods to allow a youngster the chance to get through the gate?  But if this is by design, I get it. I just wanted to thank the GM who assisted me, YourpapaTT. Awesome job!

     

    Anyway, thanks for the opportunity to share this experience.

    and a happy hew year :D

    Aye, Happy New Year to all. Plans folks? As for me, the Budman and I will be enjoying a fire in the outdoor fire pit, a pot of strong coffee laced with generous amounts of Baileys Irish Cream and some Hawaiian Pizza. Yeah, big deal but hey, safe at home on amateur night with my best pal...all good.   :w00t:

    In spite of their wisdom, I doubt they took Leap Year and daylight savings into account so the event would have come and gone. Buncha BS anyway. Even if it were true, whatcha gonna do about it? 

     

    I take issue with the moonbats posting videos on the web about some phantom planet that's supposed to pop out at us like a demented Uncle and scare us or the rest of this apocalypse garbage.. Frightening children on the web is hardly honorable behavior.  :angry:
