Those that got that initial 4.3 gb file....

After thats done downloading, what do I do to start the next one going or does it just start automatically again? I've seen that some people have to manually select a HW box, to install it? Where would that be at?

This is on a pc by the way.

Thanks for any info or replies:)

I didn't get the 4.3-ish GB download UNTIL I selected Heavensward. Basically, you just open the launcher, try to log into the game, it'll prompt you to install the expansion.

I did it in two parts because I didn't realize that HW Logo was a "button" to push the first time around ^^;

You may have to close your launcher and restart it and log back in to get the second part to kick in and start downloading. It's just under another 4GB.

I got a 8GB file. Still downloading it.

Well I didn't have any choice it just started downloading that 4.3 file, wasn't prompted to do anything....Thats what I'm saying some people had to select this HW box and some people just closed and restarted the launcher. Just want to get this right so I don't mess something up.

Thanks

You do have to go in settings to "enable" expansion (top option - turn to "ON") and the bottom one is to enable DX11 (turn to "ON") then close. Might show up if you restart after that?

Someone posted a pic of the settings screen in another thread:

Remember to turn this on!

I logged in downloaded the first 4GB then closed and relogged and it gave me a HS installation confirmation and then downloaded another 4GBs,
I've relogged a few times since then and gotten no other prompts so I assume I'm up to date and just checking every now and then as the day goes on just encase they sneak another one in there.
My auto-install expansion option was already set to on when the new launcher was downloaded so maybe double check that is on under the config button if you have an issue getting the second one going.

I got the heavensward button plus downloading 8gb file. Steam Version

I'm guessing this additional patch is for PC only and maybe due to enabling DX11? which maybe prompts the download of more hi res texture packages and that sort of stuff?

We don't get hi res textures for DX11 The last 4Gb is probably stuff they hadn't finalised until recently so rather than wait for it all they let you download what was ready.

I had the initial 4GB patch too. I closed it and an hour later signed back in and I received the other 4GB (And had the notification that it was an expansion).
No problems.

I see, I'm only curious cause I'm not getting a second patch on ps4.

I just started DLing a full 8Gb patch. Hopefully its the full patch.

I am only geet the 4. dl and once down, no option to do more, even after a restart and the menu still show ARR in top corner. This is PS4. My Pc version had 8. dl (1 go) and has HW in top corner

Did you apply a pre-order bonus code to your PS4 license too? I'm assuming since you have both systems, you pre-ordered the expansion for both, and should have gotten the code for both.

Yep, just checked PS4 on Mogstation and it states HW early access. My PS4 menu says HW but the top corner of launcher shows ARR, very confusing

If you preordered it digitally, we're all getting this.

He is probably talking about the PSN version, which doesn't need a pre-order code.

Pre ordered online via amazon, code sent via E-mail

from what I understand your client won't ask you to do the heavensward update unless you actually own the Heavensward expansion. I have the expansion got my client downloaded and updated my wife updated but only have a little over 4 gb download but not the heavensward expansion.

Edit: My assumption was correct I logged into my account on her computer and it asked for the heavensward to be installed.

oooooo. I had to use the code in my E-mail today, on top of early access code i already registered, and use on PS store to download the game

You might want to read upwards, had to take an extra step and then got HW on Launcher menu for PS4

Digital preorder doesn't come with a code, so there's nothing we can really do. There's a timer to unlock the HW add-on @ 12PM EST which might unlock the rest of the patch, but nobody really knows one way or the other for certain. Just an unfortunately confusing thing that wasn't explained. :'V
