Hiya,

I've played MxO before and ive had problems then, and now when I come back .. the problems are back!

 When I played before, my problem was that when I was ingame, I couldn't see civilian characters, or cars .. I would just walk around and all streets would be completely empty .. I could see NPC's and other players but NOT civilians or cars ..

 Now when I come back, I downloaded the client and I enter my account information then hit "Enter" and it starts scanning all files ..

but then -TUN TUN TUN- it randomly gets stuck .. by stuck I mean it just .. stops.

It says for example "Scanning file 1 ... " and thats it .. just keeps saying that ..

I tried restarting the launcher over 30 times now and it freezes on different spots .. for example,

it froze on 237.1mb/2643 files and froze on 1640/2643 files and others ..

I have closed my Antivirus which is AVG and I have turned off my firewall and chose " Don't allow exceptions " option ..

I am not using a router and my computer was reformatted about 3 weeks ago, but everything else is working fine.

If anybody has a solution,

please post it here.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

I would really appriciate it if somebody would post a link to a manual patch that I can download and just save into my MxO folder and I won't need to scan the files ..

Thanks!~

Well, I personally don't know why its freezing on client patching / full system scan, but your civilian/car issue is "Richworld" settings.  If you get in, in the options menu, there's a slider for NPC density I believe.  Cranking that up will get you civilians and cars.

What's your hardware?
Slowwer hardware is auto detected and the game will set itself up to run on low settings (hence no traffic/peds).

The installer actually has to download a few gigs of data, so leave it for at least 30 minutes and if it has made no progress close it and reopen it. The download will pick up on the file it stopped on.

Another thing to check is your firewall. It may be blocking the launcher.

And if you are on wireless with the option of plugging in. 86 the wifi and plug in. Even a small wifi comms error can stall the download.
