I was going to post in the other thread, but I'd prefer to avoid spoilers, as I see parts of the game being talked about.
I didn't fully search the thread as a result, as well.
I have the original game and want to upgrade to enhanced. I tried loading the patch FAQ on The Witcher site and it just sent me to a 404 not found page. The download page is half English and half Polish and seems to send me in a bit of a loop.
I did get the download working, but the speed is erratic at best and I'm not getting anywhere close to the speed my connection can get.
Is there a better site to download from? I'm going to search, but I'm assuming someone has already found the best/easiest to download from.
What I'd like to be able to do is download the patch and burn it to a DVD, so I always have it, in the event it's no longer provided online, or more difficult to download in the future.
I'm wondering if that is possible?
Also, when it says download languages, do I need to download the US version if I have that version of the game? (I'd assume yes, but I'm wondering if you can download other versions and if it works)
Also, do you still need to get the blood patch separate?

Templeton, there is thread Here that addresses most of those issues but doesn't have spoilers. I know that for some folks the downloads were very very slow and took most of a day. There are some alternate sites listed on that above referenced thread. You can burn the patch so you will have it later.

I finally gave up on downloading from the Witcher site because of the same issues you had, Templeton. I ended up downloading from File Planet and had no problems at all. I used the links provided in the thread L4L linked you to.

Mine is running flawlessly (knock on wood).

Templeton, I never registered and mine is working just fine. Are you sure you have to register? I have the disk version, not the download.

Ahhh Templeton, how aggravating. I know others had some problems with that too in the earlier Witcher threads. Did you take a look at those to see how/if they solved it? Have you tried their tech support?

Templeton, you might try posting your problems at the Witcher forums. They are really helpful.

Templeton, is this FAQ from the official site any help to you?

Templeton, did you try downloading from another site such as File Planet to see if that would help?

The link I provided last was specifically on the registration problem. That didn't help? If not, I guess the only thing to do would be to post again at the official forums, saying you have read all the FAQ and still need help. You could ask in the Gameboomers glitches forum, they might have some ideas.

The only other thing I can think of is that there is a problem with the download itself. Sorry you're having such a problem.

It is possible that your firewall is holding up the connection. Check the logs to see if the download site is being allowed through.
