Cannot enter online Multiplayer: "You must download the update..."

You can activate hooking for your game in the launcher and then start the game as admin with its normal shortcut (not the launcher).

Hello,

 

I am quite new here, but am hoping that someone can help me. The search function did not help me find a solution so I am trying a new topic. 

 

When I start the game via the T3A launcher and then try to enter online multiplayer I get the message "Update available! You must download the update to play BfME online!" I once pressed "Ok!" on my German version of the game which lead me to the _patch103.big update problem, where it would not make any progress and always start to update when I wanted to start the game. This problem has so far no solution I was able to find, so I installed the English version and I can at least start the game again. 

 

Is there a way to get past the update without relying on the automatic updater from EA?

 

I am by no means a PC Expert so I am not sure if there can be something done to the registry or something.

 

Thanks in advance,

Kangarombi

Did you follow exactly the steps in https://forums.revor...allation-guide/ ?

 

Do you run as admin and in winxp sp3 compatibility mode?

Wow, that was quick :D

 

So, running it as admin helps and bypasses the Update message, BUT I can not start the game as admin through the launcher (at least no way that I know of) and when I use the normal game .exe I always and up with a login time-out... I assume that is because I do not use the launcher to start the game?

 

Otherwise I installed everything as described, only the version of Daemon Tools might be different...

Go zu t3aonline.net/Setup and read how to create your server account.

Would that also be working with Linux! Also, I would need to run the Launcher in the background but I could start the exe directly then? I'll try that while I'm at home, maybe this already bypasses some issues and won't make the client segfault. That usually happened under wine using the launcher to start.
