try going into c:\program files\first strike\ and opening launcherversion.txt in notepad. change the contents to "15" and save and close. Try and run the launcher then.

Yes, at the moment. I've got two other mirrors setup where the builds are located, but they haven't been integreated into the launcher yet

When I run update.exe, I get
Download: C:\Program Files\First Strike\update.exe
400: Error downloading C:\Program Files\First Strike\update.exe.

And I can access www.woodat.com just fine. Is woodat where the builds are downloaded from?

Oh and here's what the update.exe.log looks like:

You're getting a HTTP 400 error (Bad request). Can you access the website http://www.woodat.com ?

Thanks for reporting this. There have been a few cases similar to this, but because we have yet to see a patern in those that get it, to my knowledge, we haven't managed to locate the problem.

I'll get our lead Coder to pop by this thread when I speak to him later today, see what he has to say. In the meantime, however, I suggest reinstalling the launcher seperately. You can download the launcher installer HERE. The chances are the same error will still happen, but it is worth a shot.

Thanks for helping.
