Riverview won't download
« on: August 14, 2011, 02:00:34 PM »
I've always had Riverview in my Purchase History list but never got around to really downloading it, seeing as my bandwidth is limited. I exceeded the allowed amount today (i.e. internet won't be high-speed but a little slower), so I decided, whatever, I'll download it now. The case is, it doesn't progress further after about downloading around 3Mbs. The file itself is 92Mb, if you don't know. I downloaded multiple items from the store, but only Riverview and one more item (a free hairstyle for females) refuse to progress further at some point during the process of downloading. I really don't know what's the cause of this as I do remember that I successfully downloaded the aforementioned hairstyle a few months ago (then it accidentally got deleted). Is there any way I can make these items (even only Riverview, the hair doesn't really matter) to download correctly and show up in my game? Thanks in advance. :-\

I do, actually.

Did you go offline while downloading? This is often a problem for me. :)

Err, no, I was on the forums at the time, too. And my internet connection was stable. :-\

Thanks Elizabeth, I'll go Google search this, perhaps it will give me some answers. :)

Silly suggestion, as it should work on any of them, but have you tried downloading Riverview from a different browser?

Yes. I tried with Opera and Google Chrome, same outcome. I think it's either the game or the store acting up for that particular item. Or perhaps it's my silly launcher? It has been known to cause many bugs and glitches. ::)

Yes, I know a few people who have problems with their launcher. If it is your launcher, I don't think there is any other way to download Riverview. :'( Is anything else, apart from that hair and town, not downloading? Try testing a free item just in case.

Every, I downloaded each and every free store item there is. Short of Riverview and that hairstyle. :P

But did you download them since this happened? I can gift you something for you to try and download if you like.

Thanks for the gift very much. :)

Yes, I downloaded those items before and after this, everything downloaded and installed correctly. :(
