Game is too small - 77mb

Hey, I post a thread a while back that game was too small, meaning the game downloads only about 77 mb of the game. here is the thread:http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/17621/highlight/
Eventually it worked and downloaded the whole game. But I had troubles to login the game, and eventually I stopped playing. I decided I wanted to give it another chance, but now The game download is again too small, like before, and this time it didn't work after like 100 tries. I really want to play this game, but it's just too damn buggy...

Oh and I tried already to download the install file again, erase all the files in the POE folder, and tried like 50 times to erase the content.ggpk file and download the file again.

There has to be something on your system. But instead of deleting the contents of the folder, try to delete the whole folder.

Also, what files are in the folder presently?

Before deleting it, are you able to run a pack check on it?

Here is a screenshot of the files in my folder.



And here is the packcheck test, it didn't help:



Also I removed the folder and reinstalled everything, but it still didn't work and keeps trying to download like 77mb...
Very Odd, cause the files arent even the right size yet....


Tried right clicking the ICON and selecting Run as Admin?

Also, I notice your installing to "" D:\ "" are you sure it has the available space and not a different drive / partition?

Looks like its a Backup drive also...does it maintian XXX room for doingthe backups?

Might there be a virusscanner or firewall interrupting the download? I remember reading somewhere if not enough of the game was loaded, the client thinks it has downloaded everything. This is -of course- not true and any try to start the game will -of course- fail. The solution is deleting Content.ggpk and fixing the problem that interupts your download. For example: Disable most or all programs temporarily that use your internet connection or a great part of your memory/cpu, like backup programs, torrent programs, auto-updating stuff. You might want to try to disable your antivirus while running the client, as the client is a not-so-widely-used program trying to download remote files from the internet (which is backdoor/trojan behaviour) and this might or might not be blocked by your antivirus.

Try changing your download port, and see if this helps:

It's possible your router is blocking the connection, since you said you don't have access to it you could try an alternate patching port and see if that works - here's how:

Create a shortcut to your Client.exe (found in the folder you installed PoE to), or use the shortcut on your desktop.

Right click the shortcut and go to Properties.

Go to the second tab ("Shortcut") and add this to the end of the "Target" box: --patching-server pathofexile.com:3724

So assuming you installed to the default location, the whole contents of the "Target" box should look like:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile\Client.exe" --patching-server pathofexile.com:3724

Or on 32 bit Windows just:
"C:\Program Files\Grinding Gear Games\Path of Exile\Client.exe" --patching-server pathofexile.com:3724

Click Ok to close the properties, then double click the shortcut to run the game.

Hopefully you'll be able to connect on the new port, please let us know how you get on.
Balance & Design
Tried it all, to it as an Admin a couple of time, I have about 90gb of free space in directory D so it's not about free space, I tried turning off the antivirus and firewall but it didn't work, and I tried to make the shortcut and put the extra text in the "target" box, and it still downloaded only 77mb.. Nothing seems to help =\
How much room do you have on C:?


Download HiJackThis, run the SCAN /LOG only....it saves it as a text file.....Exit it to change your ACCOUNT NAME to Same as here and then PM it to me....it will show alot of items including EVERYTHING running in the background.
