Ryzom

Hello everyone, I just installed Ryzom for the first time from Direct2Drive(FilePlanet) where I purchased the game, and a while after it started patching, I got this error, tried re-running the patch again, same result. Please help.

A fatal error occurs. The program must quit

Well it do seems as the file requested does not exist somehow.
Though have you tried to click the "Check data" button at the login screen ?

It might be someting that have gotten corrupted.

Check your firewall and free hard disk space
And why "ryzom_recover.exe"?

I have enough hard disk space, and I do not even get the login screen, I get the command prompt patching window immediately when I run the game, and after a couple of tries, I get that error.

To update my issue, I do not seem to be able to connect to ryzom.com website without a proxy, I had to use a proxy to access it, so I guess this is the same case why I cant access the update server.

Now the question is, why cant I access Ryzom.com without a proxy?!!

It's the only EXE in my Ryzom folder, note that I downloaded Ryzom from Direct2drive(Fileplanet), also, the shortcut on my desktop auto opens that patcher window.

The initial program for login/patching/char selection should at least startup even without an internet connection.

This means you have some corrupt files which need redownloading/patching.
You can:

Redownload - with a download manager would proberly be best as it's a large file.
(helpful link - http://www.ryzom.com/forum/showthread.php?t=15478)
and/or use the 'ryzom_recover.exe' file.

Connection problems, try setting up your firewall/router to allow ryzom .exe files.

Good luck.

There seems to be a similar problem in this topic:

Try downloading the installation .exe from here if it's a different file.

"client_ryzom_rd.exe" was already installed back when I did my installation, didn't need to run the recover tool...

Please see the response in the older thread on the subject.
