UPDATE: Please see Vandeve's quote below for more information. If the "delete patch.id" solution does not work for you, the quickest way to resolve this issue is to reinstall the Dragon Saga client. The most up-to-date client can be obtained here. The WarpPortal team hopes to make another fully patched, working client available for download later this week for those still having problems. Thank you for your continued patience.

Greetings fellow Dragon Saga users,

It has become clear that many users are having issues applying the New Origins patch. This is a temporary thread to assure all of you that you're not alone.

Many users have been encountering an error during the patching process that produces a "failed to patch" message. This is purely speculation, but it seems there may be some files included in the patch that are causing these issues, as many users are encountering the problem at approximately the same point in the patching process (around 99-100% completion).

I have already submitted a ticket to the support team regarding this issue in the hopes that a temporary fix can be found. In the meantime, please be patient as we await official word on this matter. Myself and the other volunteers will keep you updated if we hear anything.

Thank you!

If you received the fail to patch error message eariler goto your Dragon Saga folder and delete a file named 'patch.id' (Thank you to the user who posted this eariler.) This will force the client to fix the file that is causing the issue preventing you from selecting a channel. You do not have to install the game.

Please note: This is only if the game client is crashing when selecting a channel!
-Vandeve

Yes, that is the file that seems to be causing problems for myself and many others.

EDIT: @Youti: Several users have tried re-patching and they are still encountering this issue. It seems we'll have to wait for more information from support. I'm sure a fix will be coming as soon as it's available.

Correct. It seems that if it "fails to patch" at that point, the client will allow you to log in but as soon as you select a channel and press to enter it, the client crashes.

Oddly enough it'll let you go as far as the channel select screen but it goes to the loading screen and crashes

I actually got to the character selection screen, then when I hovered over a character, it crashed.

I don't think it's a specific file at that point, mine got the failed to patch message at 20 something % last time I tried and I was only at 30 something the first time I froze up (that was due to my internet cutting out for a moment though).

Same thing happens to me though even with only patching that far, I can log in and get to channel select and then the game crashes if I try to connect.

I didn't even fail to patch and I still have serious issues with skill icons and monsters while playing the Dragonkin. If it worked properly for myself I would upload a full client for everyone, but sadly that isn't the case ._.

Hoping for an updated full client from Warp Portal. Til then no DS for me I guess ._.

The weird thing is that some people are able to finish patching, and play.

Although the patcher has failed on more than one occasion, most know of the patcher fail with Midas the Production Maestro lol, able to play the game just fine, but you cant see him until you repair the install, erase your patcher.id, then re patch.

BTW - already tried that, it didnt work either.

Until they come up with an alternate solution or fix entirely, the questtexttable.xml, I dont think any of us are getting on.

oh i'm in the same boat! patcher failed, reinstalling didn't work...no sense in trying to make it work til the gravity fix-it crew arrive and do what they do best! they send in monkies to poke and prod til the game works again :thumb:

I woke up this morning, patched, then played. Obviously, I am the chosen one.

If only the power at be would allow my fiancee to also be chosen.

SURE IS LONELY HERE AT THE TOP
