Nop. I tried and it wont work. I not sure why. In task manager it just gone before it launch… sigh… I even reinstall after uninstall and clean all the files…
After trying everything is this topic multiple times, and 8 hours of hard work, i could play the game and i will explain below what i did, it is crazy, but hell i’m playing now:
First off: i believe that the problem is not ours alone and is not on “only” one aspect, so since i can not track everything so i did the hard way to make it work.
after reading this topic : Damaged IPF files i got to know that the problem is also on the main ipf files, even if we download it, it may come corrupted, so now i will describe everything i did, it may be that ours is just more serious and is not even showing the msg when we open the game, there is no time for that.
first: save all IPF files with a size large than 50 Mb (if you internet is good you can even decrease the number of ipf files saves, you will understand why later since i have a good internet i only keep the ones with 200mb or large, so it only took me 3 tries)
second:delete everything in the main patch folder (ipf files) and the files with small size in the \Steam\steamapps\common\TreeOfSavior\release and \Steam\steamapps\common\TreeOfSavior\release\patch
third: ask the steam to to check integrity, this is re download all the files from release folder and a new launcher
fourth: put the IPF files that you have save in the patch folder again, and open the launcher, this will update the launcher with a new hotfix made the last time that this problem had happen, and after than you open it again to re download the ipf files.
Fifth: after all if the game does not open, select one of the ipf files from your “save” pile and remove him, and delete from the main patch folder, then select the version on the release.revision.txt on the release folder as the same as the ipf file you have removed so he can re download a new one and open the game again.
if the game does not open after all of this, it would mean that one of the IPF files that you have “save” is broken, you need to replace one after the other, until the game work.
but be aware that some ipf files can come broken or did not download at all, so every time you are doing a new “try” you would have to start from the second step, so he can re download everything again from scratch until it work would work is better, but you can skip steps if you are secure that the problem is on the IPF files, and not in any other place like the release folder .
the process of saving the ipf files with larger size, is just so that we can “narrow down” the ipf files with problem and also make the tests with a fast peace, since the ones with big sizes would be the ones who takes a while to download and be easy to track, the other ones you can just re download until it work.
i know this seems to be the same as most steps together, but i have tried this steps “alone” every time someone posted here, and not one of them got the game to work, only when i did as that after even a complete re install and only took me 3 tries since i only had save 3 ipf files with size large than 200mb.
and i’m playing now; everything is fine .
sorry about the English, is not my main language i just wanted to post so it may help another person .

Really… very much thankful to your suggestion. Seems like you are right to the point that my client wont start normally due to one ipf file corrupted.

This one should be the latest patch file i think? From your problem stated, I went and copy my friend’s whole ipf folder and compare one by one. Somehow i realize this file of mine is 0kb while my friend’s is 513kb. After replace it, my client works again.
After so many times of reinstall and verify, this error still cant solve by itself. Need manually solve by us players? IMC please look into it. It might be the file corrupted at your patch server.
Someone would kindly tag them again and hope this can help other players as well. Thank you.
@nery_ma very much thanks to you again. You are my life saver.
Nope, luck for you that you had a friend for that, haha, for me i had to go with 4 tries to find it out and by the end of it, it took me 8 hours trying, multiples methods until i had found the problem, but even then if i could help one person is already good enough the time it took me to come here write that, since like i said i’m not so good with english and took me a few tries with google translate, and dictionary to try to explain everything, haha. but good luck with you game now.
but i can not stop to wonder, like one small file of 513kb could destroyer a entire game like that.
Hey guy… this work for me. Thank you!!!
