This is taking forever... : SWTOR Discussions

downloading TOR beta and its been going for like 15 hours..... i dont have that slow of internet. Only 1.9Gb to go!

Yea its a beast of a download. However can you just get the torrent instead and go about it that way? Have you tried getting this Register to unlock hidden link then running the install from there? It should help speed it up.

Although I have Comcast fastest internet available in my area. I noticed from time to time while downloading TOR, the download speed would drop dramatically 300-600kbps.. All I had to do is hit the pause button, then continue and the speed would go back to normal.

I have comcast. Took 3 hours.

i did not think to get the torrent :/ it is already finished. Also where is this saved? I cant find a file called bioware or starwarstheoldrepublic and i want to copy this for my bro.

On my 64-bit OS its stored in C:/Program Files (x86)/Electronic Arts/BioWare/Star Wars - The Old Republic.
On 32-bit OS should be C:/Program Files/Electronic Arts/BioWare/Star Wars - The Old Republic.

thanks

So spaghettio did you manage to get it all installed?

yea i got it all working on both my comp that i downloaded it on and my brothers by copy pasting. Tho at first it wanted to redownload every but i figured out how to get it to work

Nice yea it can be a pain at first since its a monster in size.

yea it took an hour because of my pen drive sizes but that better then the 15 it took to download

I plan on multi-boxing TOR with 4 PC's. For copying the game, I backed up the entire C:/Program Files (x86)/Electronic Arts/BioWare directory to my external HDD. Copied it to the other pc's, then ran the installer for each one. Worked like a charm.
