Le sticky. Nice job!

Edit: cRPG launcher is now fixed. 4.5.4.1 patch notes coming soon!


As most of you know, cRPG launcher is down at the moment. It's still getting worked on but it's pretty close to fixed. chadz was able to patch in our last changes which ended up being the archery and xbow balance revert changes. I'll post stats soon.

To update or download cRPG, visit this link(Thank you Elio and Switchtense):http://forum.melee.org/general-discussion/crpg-updater-temporary-replacement-of-crpg-launcher/

Been in the middle of moving, I come back to see if I get any replies, and BAM.

I didnt think about just doing it manually in a whole other folder.

and go figure when I do all that, I read the next page which says the regular updater is now functioning

In the window that just opened you click the "..."-Button and navigate to your Mount&Blade Warband folder and press OK.
You may also directly paste the path to your Warband folder in the textbox.
Note: Not your cRPG folder, It has to be the Warband main folder.

If you want a shortcut for easier access, check the "Create Shortcut"-checkbox before pressing the Update button. If you check it, the program will automatically create a shortcut to the updater on your desktop.
NOTE: If you already have a shortcut on your desktop, this checkbox will not be visible.

Afterwards you simply press the "Update"-Button. A new window will open, here you press "Yes" and cRPG will start updating.

A message box will notify you once cRPG has been updated.

Once you press "Ok" the window will close automatically.

If you need any kind of help, or some errors occur while using the updater, don't hesitate to bring it up. Thank you

• PermissionError: Permission denied to write files
  
  
  (click to show/hide)

  Writing into "Program Files (x86)" & "Program Files" and system' directories in general requires administrative privileges since Windows Vista.
  
  See more informations about this: msdn.microsoft.com: User Account Control
  
  So your only way to allow crpg_update.exe to write into program files is launching it as administrator.
  
  By the way that's the reason why cRPG launcher requires admin privileges.
  
  technet.microsoft.com: Start a Command Prompt as an Administrator
  or
  techjourney.net: How to Open Elevated Command Prompt as Administrator
  
  By command line as administrator:
  Just supply the cRPG directory:
  "X:\path\crpg_update.exe" "Y:\MountBlade Warband\Modules\cRPG"
  
  Another solution: updating it manually
  
  With help of GUI, select desktop as Warband path and then choose this folder to update/install cRPG.
  
  Then you have to replace manually the cRPG folder from "Program Files (x86)\M&BW\Modules\"
