Stuck at Installing Pre-reqs

After today's hotfix, I can't get back into DDO.

1st start it went through the routine of installing the patches. The launcher then auto restarted and immediately got stuck at Installing Pre-Reqs. Every launch since then sticks at the same place.

I've done the usual reboot and tried running it as admin. I've done system restore to yesterday to provoke another update, and it does just the same thing.

Would be grateful for more ideas.

I'm having the same issue. I JUST got a new laptop in with Win10 and DirectX12. Not sure what the frek is going on.

I'm also waiting for a response. I'd love to get the quiver, but the black abbot raid is lvl 18. no chance a lvl 20 toon can solo that

Guest 10:54 pm, October 26, 2017 0

Yup sux. Won't be playing this one again.

Guest 5:15 pm, September 16, 2017 0

Pull down the little down arrow button, choose Options, in the Options dialog window choose the Repair tab, click the "Reset the game display settings" checkbox. Click OK. Then try starting again.

Same here. I'm on Virgin Broadband. Definitely worse since U35 and patches. Think it's a server issue.

Its because its running at a high resolution. By going to a higher res of 3840x2160. everthign seems smaller, only because you compressed the more by upping the res. DDO does not tailor well to high res. they dont scale at all.

Guest 2:36 pm, April 12, 2017 0

Hi, I also have this problem. Have you been able to find something out about all this?

Guest 8:55 pm, March 20, 2017 0

There are two ways that this would potential work. 1. how often do hit perhaps more than 1 per second. 2. Some abilities will have the timer reset on each hit. Which means you can take it to 20 then if you don't hit anything it would drop 1 every 3 seconds.

Guest 8:52 pm, March 20, 2017 0

I would recommend that you start off at level 1. It will give you a chance to learn grow and gain items. Just remember that if you are going for a wiz/rogue combination that you start as a rogue. They start with a higher number of skill points which is useful.

Guest 8:49 pm, March 20, 2017 0

1.You get the same amount of favor for running a quest on Reaper as you would from elite. 2. You can run over level as much as you want. IE if you are lvl 30 you can still run a level 1 quest on elite and get full favor.

Do you fix it? I have the same problem

Randomly stumbled across this while looking for something else. I'm a former constant player coming back from two years without being able to play. Just wanted to say hello and agree that DDO is a great outlet for anxiety, depression or just the odd rough day.

Monks can use dex when using shurikens, other than that I don't know

The INT modifier is added to your damage, instead of STR modifier. (Unless STR is higher, but then why would you be taking this enhancement?)

Guest 4:45 pm, October 15, 2016 0

I am locking up - certain places in DDO won;t load notably the Salty Wench tavern in Three Barrell Cove. Now can't log in at all. Unhappy barbarian here

See this post which concerns running Firestorm viewer in Second Life, but should apply here. http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/severe-performance-issues-in-firestorm-viewer/3cb682b1-42f7-4ce0-932b-2535d58fb8d8?tm=1472938615539&auth=1 Basically it entails uninstalling KB 3176938 and then running Windows Update Show/Hide to stop future installs. Problem solved
