Default Downloading the game again

Hi, I quit about 5-6 months ago and had to reboot my entire computer so the slate was wiped clean. Now that I want to get back into it when I click "download" the box dissapears and nothing happens. I've waited up to 10 minutes. Anyone got a solution? Thanks.

Well, my Gw.dat is 3,51 GB atm, so maybe that's what's going on?

Being away for so long, your game has a LOT of files to download. And even then once in game each character will have to unpack more files for each town they first visit. I sugguest using the "-image" switcher which will DL ALL relevant files to your account up to date...

Here is where to read more about it which is towards the bottom of the first post. As far as use, the easiest way is to create a shortcut of GW.EXE then go into its properties and modify the "Target:" line with the switcher. The thread will tell you the rest...

I hope that helps and welcome back!! Just in time for Wintersday 06!! Wheee!
Cheers!
