Silkroad Online Forums

It finished downloading from utorrent and i double-clicked on another icon above it with the same title and it said 'please wait...' before a pop-up came telling me that i should keep this version so its faster when the client comes out (somehting like that) and i pressed ok, but then nothing happened. i tried it several times and stilll nothing.

Is the game now installed into SR? Do i just press my SilkRoad button and press start normally and the game will work? or am i supposed to search for something else in my computer?maybe a specialy name?

Please somebody help me.

it sais something like this:

this program cannot be used until the europe patch is released

next time you see something similar, just do what it says.

wait with using it till the europe patch is released lol

Actually, not really
I was able to re-open it and get a screenshot

This is whatt pop-ups after the 'please wait...' bar:


I clicked 'ok' and then nothing happened.

well
thats because euro isnt released yet.

you press OK to get rid of the message with the OK button.

Oh...
so how is it alot of players are already playing it?

Im sorry if im bothering you and annoying you, its just really confusing.

not annoying. its what we are here for.

the people playing euro play other versions of silkroad, for other parts of the
world like china and korea.

look in here in the guides sticky

Ooooooooooh. Okay. I understand now
Their are different version of SRO for different countries/languages and CSRO and KSRO where updated between this version of SRO.

Okay, thankyou so much cin.

my problem is with vista, it wont let me run the torrent.. any ideas what to do?

idk i dont have vista.. but used xp compatibility mode?

yea i did, but it opens up the torrent program and stops there. It doest start the dl

All i got to say "VISTA has loads of issues - accepted by SRO "
U can try UBANTU if ur comfortable, to know more of UBANTU - Click here

Good god man, "UBANTU"?

I never understood why people have so much trouble saying "Ubuntu". They always have to butcher it with random letters it seems like.


Anyway, if you do want to run Ubuntu, I highly recommend it, but chances are you don't want to have to switch your entire OS and cajole WINE into running SRO (which is fairly painless, though) just because of this one problem.



I highly dislike the way that JM distributes SRO- you have to use IE to get to the website, then you have to download an exe to install a torrent client, then you have to download the torrent itself. I've barely got any web design experience, and I could make the process much less painful (Standard HTML website, no ActiveX and crap, link to a download page, and from the download, you download the .torrent, not a damn client), it seems like their design is for ease of use, but it honestly just seems to complicate matters IMO.

Anyway, the best way to get SRO on Linux is just to download it somewhere else, and that will probably be the most effective method in Vista too. You should be able to find it fairly painlessly on google.
