Title: NO MIRRORS WORK
Post by: deadriver on April 01, 2006, 11:20:57 pm
I\'ve been trying to get this game to work for a few months now. I just downloaded the new version, but when i ran the updater it shows that all the mirrors failed, and says \"ran out of mirrors! game cannot be updated\" ... any suggestions?

If you\'re behind a proxy/router/etc, you may need to tell the updater how to get through.  Also, check that you have the right mirrors list.  It\'s all in the updater sticky (http://planeshift.oodlz.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=21380&boardid=17) that you should read.

Right-click on the file you want to edit, and choose something like \"Open with...\" and browse to find either notepad or wordpad of some other basic text editor. Then make the changes, and save :)

Ah, you don\'t have a real ISP...  I don\'t know anything about getting PS to run through AOL.  Anyone know what evil voodoo might be required?

And, for the billionth time, yes, the game needs to be updated.  Just because you \"just installed\" doesn\'t mean anything.  You need to get the updater working, nonetheless.
