Download Problem

Post by Rosato »

I downloaded the game through peer to peer mode off the official website today. I click it and it shows the please wait box that must of took an hour to go away. Finally, when that box disappeared it said I can't use this client until Legend 5. The official website gave me the wrong download?

This. Check your firewall, router, connection quality or isp.

How can you dismiss that suggestion so easily...?

Because I already downloaded the client. Then I'm waiting for it to late after clicking it. It has the please wait white box that were there for 1 hour and then it gave me the error message.

Make sure you uninstall previous sro first. Makes it a lot faster when Installing. Second. Make sure you meet the system requirements. Minimum requirements are definitely not recommended. A slow cpu or little ram will make the installaion halt and not continue.

another thing you can try is run as admin.

Check the date your computer is set to. Make sure it has the correct day, month, and especially year.

However it will not download the update for me and the joymax website doesnt even work.

Downloading it has NOTHING to do with the please wait box the please wait box means the client is trying to connect to the Silkroad server, You download it from a completly other source. when it stuck on the please wait box it DOES mean something's blocked and useally it means it can't connect to the server
