Launcher update not working.

[2sk00pz]

So I installed the update, then it worked perfectly fine. I close out of the launcher, open it back up a day later, and I have to reinstall the update. I did and worked perfectly. Then, out of the blue, it stopped working. So I uninstalled it (I deleted all the folders, and such). I go to the website and re download the launcher. The black tab with the MBII symbol in the middle. It says there is a new update for the launcher, I click yes, it then says "make sure there is not another launcher running" and there isn't. It starts to say it's downloading, then it crashes and closes out. Some files pop up in my downloads folder for a few seconds, then dissapear. The things that pop up are the movie battles launcher, and MBII patcher dl. The MBII launcher dissapears along with the launcher updater. But the MBII patcher dl file stays in the downloads folder, unlike the MBII launcher.


Please help.

then it crashes

Do not say "it crashes" (never ever, not only in this thread, not only when it's about Movie Battles), post exact message that comes up with a crash instead.
If there is "Details" button, click it and copy-paste all the text that is displayed.

It doesn't show me any logs or anything. It just blinks away.

Delete these folders:
Jedi Academy\GameData\MBII_Launcher
C:\Users\YOUR_NAME\AppData\Local\Movie_Battles_Team
And try again.

I deleted them, went to my downloads folder, clicked on MBIILauncher, and the same thing happend again, except it asked for me to set the file location.

I deleted them, went to my downloads folder, clicked on MBIILauncher

It's supposed to be in "Jedi Academy\GameData".
Move it there and try again.

Im afraid I don't understand, move what in the GameData?

Im afraid I don't understand, move what in the GameData?

MBIILauncher.exe.
It must be in "Jedi Academy\GameData", not in any other folder.

It's in downloads because I downloaded it from this website.

So. Move. It. To. "GameData".
And launch it from there.
What's the problem?

Thank you so much, this worked perfectly! I could sense that you were getting a little frustrated with my lack of knowledge, but I apologize for any mental damage done from me, THANK YOU!!!!

in files?

in files?

ffs what files? =\\\
I gave you a link to guide: Windows technical FAQ/troubleshooting guide
Click that link. Clicking is not hard, we use device called "mouse" for that.
Scroll to the point where you can see "Z_Free" and use "reading" skill (usually people get points for that in a location called "school") to find out what you're supposed to do.
