Hello! i donloaded the game with torrent (link provided from here) and launcher with chrome. When i run it i can't connect and i keep getting this:


Error starting: System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Δεν επιτρέπεται η πρόσβαση στη διαδρομή
'C:\Games\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\WAR.exe'.
σε System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
σε System.IO.FileStream.Init(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, Int32 rights, Boolean useRights, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES secAttrs, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy, Boolean useLongPath, Boolean checkHost)
σε System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode, FileAccess access, FileShare share, Int32 bufferSize, FileOptions options, String msgPath, Boolean bFromProxy)
σε System.IO.FileStream..ctor(String path, FileMode mode)
σε RoRLauncher.Client.patchExe()
σε RoRLauncher.Client.Handle(PacketIn packet)

PLEASE HELP :)

If i try to run WAR.exe i get Critical error that says: Warhammer cannot run direclty. Please run Warpatch.exe to patch and launch Warhammer.

After that i tried to run Warpatch and i keep getting this:
The patch client was unable to update the file [C:\Games\Warhammer - Age Of Reckoning\warpatch.bin]
(0 total error encountered). Please ensure the game is not already running and there is free space available on the disk.

After that i have no idea what to do. ( btw the game is not running in the background and i have more than enough disk space)

Please help guys :)
Thanks in advance :)

The offical war.exe patches no longer work, so only use RoR launcher.

Make sure read only for the entire game folder is unchecked. Make sure the torrent application isn't running at the same time.

You might have to move the game folder else where to remove any previous applications access to it (which would prevent the user from disabling read only).

Then run the RoR launcher as administrator, and it should work.

Something is preventing the launcher from getting access to key files of the game. Most likely is the "read only" function. Right click the game folder and go to properties. Uncheck read only and select include sub folders.

You only need to use RoR launcher to load the game, nothing else.

The game files from disc won't work. It's outdated and not compatible with this emulator.
