I can't get this to work. I've downloaded it, clicked yes on the directx 9.0c and it seems to install some files, but it doesn't install directx or even most of the files. I tried using the launcher, and it doesn't even open. Just an admin request (i've already gave it permission in properties) but nothing seems to open up.

Hello, Warhammer veterans!
I'm struggling with your installation system (damn it, Sigmar) and have reached the launch stage. I downloaded the launcher and replaced it in the folder. All previous steps were also completed according to the instructions on the first page of this thread.
Question: My launcher is currently stuck at Loading 1/2 (50%) for about 20-25 minutes. Is this normal? Should it hang for a long time? Should there be any movement? The web server icon is green.
P.S. I'm trying to reach you from Russia, if that's important.
UPD: After another 10 minutes, it gave the following error: Build 99 Art archive Unknown (retry count: 5)

I just installed the game and got it running but I would like to add that when I initially just clicked download from WeTransfer it only downloaded about 1.6gigs. When you mentioned it should have been 15.6gb I went back to the download link and clicked preview just to see and it gave me the full 15.6gb. I just wanted to say thanks I guess.xpander wrote: Sun Dec 14, 2025 7:46 amfix your browser.Kartillen wrote: Fri Dec 12, 2025 10:02 pm rorlauncher just says missing files / corrupt files
the zip download just says invalid/corrupt files.
fix your ****.
the downloaded zip should be around 15.6GB
if you are using firefox, keep the wetransfer tab open when its downloading.
if nothing helps join the discord server and grab a torrent link from the pinned tabs in technical-advice channel

Followed the steps, selected games for the install folder, unchecked read only, launched launcher, downloaded updates, hit connect, something launches, screen goes black, flashes like a input on my monitor a sec, then whatever opened is terminated and Im back to the launcher. Closed launcher, reopened. Same result. Hit repair and nothing happens. Moved folders, nothing happens.
I did notice that the read only box keeps resetting to a "-" instead of a checkmark or blank. Even though I have full permissions on its folder, the games folder, all of everything. This folder keeps going back to the "-" no matter what. Disabled windows defender entirely. Gave myself a 2nd profile with full permissions of everything on the whole of windows....nothing. Same result.

It's in just C and a folder I made "Games". I have never cloud synced a folder. Sharing in properties says not shared?gyps wrote: Sat May 23, 2026 11:00 amIs by any chance that folder inside an cloud synced folder?Beltyra wrote: Sat May 23, 2026 5:49 am Followed the steps, selected games for the install folder, unchecked read only, launched launcher, downloaded updates, hit connect, something launches, screen goes black, flashes like a input on my monitor a sec, then whatever opened is terminated and Im back to the launcher.

I have been trying to figure out why I can't extract the compressed folder. I downloaded the installer and the file size says 1,618,899KB and I try to extract it but the error it gives me is
The compressed (zipped) folder is empty. Before you can extract the files, you must copy files to this compressed (zipped) folder.
Can someone explain this?

Had the same issue. When you go to the download game wetransfer site, click OPEN then download from the next screen. For whatever reason when you download from the first screen the zip is only 2.2gb, the second one is the proper 15.5gb zip.DreadlordXol wrote: Sat Aug 01, 2026 12:03 am The compressed (zipped) folder is empty.
