Had no issues with the new Launchpad installing. Now just waiting until the server comes back up to make sure all my other stuff is in good order (macro's and all that). Quick and easy.

Ok, here we go. Wat's up with my Direct3d (Directx) and my PC now runs slow as mollasses after i tried my first loading on the game and got a weird freak out of my PC and Directx? lol
Gonna put me to work today I see! No worries i'll take a look and see what i can figure out. Wow, now my cursor is wigging out to.. hmmm. Must be a graphics driver issue. Somehow I think the new launchpad set-up crapped my game installation and my graphics driver as well as directx drivers. So who do i kick for this one! lol No big deal I will fix it and let you all know what's up so in case others get the same deal I am getting, they will know how to fix it.
Also having issues with security/permissions now for SWG. Working on it.
Any tips on this would be great. Tried all the ideas and stuff I know with security and permissions (and i know a few things, Have associates in Computer Science, and working on my Bachelors right now..don't know all though! Just a bit.), and so far ... nodda. Everything has been working great up until I installed the new launchpad. This keeps popping up now, even though I have checked and re-checked all permissions and security settings.

lol .. sorry I forget some don't quite understand some of that. For some reason something in my Windows 7 64 Bit set-up for security and permissions is not allowing launchpad FULL access and privileges that it requires in order to start swg. I think it has something to do with Microsoft Security Essentials though. I found an error log that deals with Security Essentials that is similar to an error and issue others have had. Looking more into it though. As for the the Direct 3d issue, still can't quite get that fixed, but i'm getting closer.
Ok, issue fixed. SWG, Launchpad, Video Drivers, and Directx are fine, not an issue with those. It was a glitch with file permissions and Microsoft Security Essentials. All I ended up having to do was go into my advanced file permissions and change setting for SWG executable and then Microsoft Security Essentials "allowed" it to load. The "glitch" in Security Essentials was not only stopping SWG, but it was stopping Directx as well. All good now, thank you for your response though Vlada.
Always, always add SWGEmu launcher and swgemu.exe to any firewall and anti-virus exception list.
I probably should add that in the guide.
I had no issues with installing the new Launch Pad, except i couldn't get it to find my profiles folder with copy and pasting. Solution was to close all instances, open launch pad, delete profiles from the launcher, close launch pad. Copy backed up Profiles folder into the new Launch folder. Restart launchpad and boom, there they are.
Nice launchpad btw.
Are the .tre files unchanged or does the new launchpad automatically download additional .tre files? I just started with the LPE and it worked fine.
I so screwed this up. Having to do a complete reinstall of the game. Are there any issues from a new install perspective for the new Launch Pad?
got everything installed correctly, thanks for all the hard work guys!

I'm still trying to get back in after the new LaunchPad was introduced. I've reinstalled, following the guide, three times. I still get a "Connection Closed" when it's trying to download files. *sigh* I'm running on linux in crossover. I even deleted the bottle. And created a new windows bottle.
I filed a ticket and am now working with Niffer off and on to get it resolved. Wish me luck!
