Last week when the Anniversary boxes came, my game started showing the boxes as unknown items with apple icons and some of the items introduced to the game had no descriptions but I wasn't experiencing any crashes so I thought to myself "perhaps the next patch might fix it~", this happened on ALL installations of RO on THREE different computers. Prior to this, my patcher was working just fine.
So I waited.
Came the next maintenance, I eagerly checked to see if my problem was still there and there it was, still happening. This time my game crashes whenever I go visit the Anniversary Quest maps (in addition to the unknown items and apple icons). I've done pretty much everything I could think of: from reinstalling the game from scratch, to trying to patch multiple times from a good backup (dated to the very last patch in May), to trying this workaround, but none of them seemed to fix my problem. Just in case anyone asks, I have been running all the executables as an admin.
Can someone from the technical team, or at least anyone, please help me out with this issue?
Patching always seems to stop after 2540 2014-06-04data_gm_data2.gpf then the play button becomes available.
