Re: Vista hang on loading after character selection

I will give more detailed information when I am back home at my Vista system.

Edit:
My installation resides in C:\Users\<username>\Program Files (x86)\Ryzom\ on my Vista 64-bit, so I assume you should be able to install it to C:\Users\<username>\Program Files\Ryzom\

Eugh... I really don't like the look of this solution, it's just running around the problem instead of solving it. Plus, I don't have much space on my C drive, I'd rather have Ryzom sitting on another.

Nevertheless I'll try this and see how I go.

EDIT! Now I get this error when trying to login:

EDIT! I did a clean reinstall to C: but now I have the OP's problem again. My game hangs on the second last loading bar after selecting a character... the last one never completes and it just sits there with the music playing.

EDIT! After a few more tries, it now works. I have no idea how.
