- It took me a lot of searching to find out how to update Trickster..
This is for those who have problems with patching their Clients..
Hope this helps..
Sometimes, when Trickster gets updated after some maintenance, some
people has problem with Trickster not patching in the launcher, and
prevents them from playing due to version difference, or Exceptional
Error, if not weird stuff. I have found a workaround to allow Trickster
Launcher to patch Trickster.
To make the Launcher detect the new version of Trickster and patch
1. Close Trickster Launcher if already open (optional)
2. go to http://ntreevpatch.nefficient.com/ntreev/version/version using Internet Explorer (this doesn't work with firefox). It should lead to a page with some version information. It looks like this:
version = 2.17.1
notice = http://www.tricksteronline.com/game/launcher.aspx
filelist = filelist.200708280115
patch = http://ntreevpatch.nefficient.com/ntreev/Patch
3. when there, refresh by pressing CTRL-F5. You should notice that the "version" field change
4. Open Trickster Launcher (or press file check if open) and it will detect the new version and patch.
You should be able to play the updated version of Trickster now.
I found this workaround when I asked myself "Why a lot of people can't
play immediately after the maintenances?", and started to look, and I
found that this is the problem.
If it doesn't work for any of you, let me know about it, I will try to find a deeper solution if possible.
