Epic Perfect World

Game launcher crashes

I had a few problems with my pc, so had to reformat/reinstall everything, including epic.  I managed to update the client okay, with manual patch up to v39.  But when the launcher updates to the new interface, it doesn't even load, just crashes :/  No idea why this is happening at all :(

are u running it as admin ?
I've never had to change it to "run as admin" before, because it's always worked :)  If I'd encountered these kind of issues at the outset, I would have changed it accordingly, will try so now and see if that works.

I changed file permissions/run as admin, on the patcher.exe, launcher.exe, elementclient.exe, and on the bat files as well, still no joy :(  It works fine, until it updates to the latest interface.  My pc got rolled back to the latest restore point, which was just a few days ago, so there's nothing important missing like DirectX.  I'm truly baffled :(

can u check inside the patcher folder for the txt file updateserver.txt if it is like this

"Patch"   "http://178.33.234.187/patch145/"
Yup it is, just can't launch the launcher.exe or the patch.exe  :sad:  The elementclient works fine, I can launch the game from there, I just can't update it :(  Would it be possible to get a manual patch from 39 to 41, see if that might fix the problem? :/

does it let u verify the files?
Yeah I'm gonna do that, doing a fresh install now, and going to verify before updating, see if that helps :)  The launcher works fine then, it's when it updates to the new interfaces my pc doesn't like it :/

That seemed to do the trick!  New interface has launched ok and is updating!  Stupid pc >.<  Thanks for your help Evil :)

On the launcher click the "Graphics" tab and you'll be able to change the resolution of the game to something that will fit your system settings.

Try to change your system resolution to something lower, it might help.
