Command to download maps? - Guild Wars Forums

WhiteAsIce · Oct 09, 2008, 06:07 PM // 18:07

I downloaded the client off the website, so I don't have all maps downloaded. I'm tired of having to wait a few minutes when going from map to map for the map to download. Is there something I can do to get my client to download all maps at once?

Right click your GW icon

Change the path to: "C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -image

(if C is not your program file drive change it to the one that is)

Make sure you do it when ur not trying to play soon coz itll take several hours to complete..

I started doing it, then my computer gave me a notice that drive space is low, so I cancelled it. Looks like I'll have to settle for download-as-I-go... Case closed.

You will need at least 4 gig of space, maybe slightly more. If you can clear at least 5gig worth of space you should be good.

That won't make the game use less space. You will still run out of space in the middle of doing something in the game.
