Hello! I am a new player trying to run GW2 using the 32-bit client cause the 64-bit client crashes for me a lot. I have tried renaming the client to Gw2.exe, and using the command line argument -32 at the end of a shortcut of the main .exe.
When I first installed it, I had the game in my C drive. Then, I moved all my video games to my alternate drive (D) I just copied the GW2 folder, and remade the shortcut and put that on my desktop.The biggest difference in load time change for me was adding an ssd to run the game back when the 32 bit client was standard. The differences then were iirc 50-75 seconds to load from a 7200 rpm seagate barracuda w/ 32m cache vs 15-25 seconds on a Samsung 840 ssd for initial load in to the bank in LA. Not sure what the actual issue is but a note for you as well as new players reading this. The % complete is the % of remaining files currently vs the % of remaining files the last time you started the launcher. That is to say, if you start the launcher and have 10k files left, download 25%, exit the launcher and restart, the launcher will start at 0% again, but the % will now be based on a
those files are the actual game files, which means its installed the game to your download folder, but don't worry, gw2 is pretty portable so just move those files into the place where you actually want the game installed, including the .exe if you then start the .exe again it will resume the download into the new destionation.
/r/GuildWars2 is the primary community for Guild Wars 2 on Reddit. but none of the new download seems to be changing its size. What is happening?
