Rift trial problem..

[Kylecat15]

Hello, I recently decided to try rift out.. (played it in the beta). So I went to download the client and once I launched it I had to update the game and everytime I would try it said something similar to "cannot recover at this time please try in a few minutes" it was error "1012"

Anyone know anything about this? I would really like to try the game again.

I searched google and the official rift forums, sounds like a couple people had the problem. what I gather is it's something to do with the launcher, maybe updating an earlier patch, or part of an earlier patch was deleted in the process of updating to a more recent patch. I haven't had this problem, but then I'm just updating patches 1.6.x as they are released. my guess is there's a gap somewhere in 1.5 or before that 1.6 can't write over. just a guess though. only heard of a couple people having trouble as they're starting to download the game, maybe its an issue with the free trial.

best thing you can do is contact their tech support at https://trionworlds.custhelp.com/app...etail/a_id/478

edit: cant find "error 1012" but I found some random "error 1024" and "error 1002" LOL

best bet to ask tech support, someone else had a problem downloading the launcher as well

just found this post from a community ambassador http://forums.riftgame.com/rift-gene...ml#post3425026

"the 1012 error can indeed be caused by a proxy. though it can also be caused by a variety of other network issues. things like firewalls, antivirus, spyware/popup blockers, etc. can also cause you to see this."
