I have the same problem here, but i bought mine from steam, its slowly trying to get another 10 gig after steam been downloading for 7 hours, any fixes for those with the same problem over steam?

What OS do you have? Some seem to have got it without issues, something must be causing it.

Win 7 64bit here.

same win7 64 bit

After reinstalling to steam when I saw the 10gb patch, it is not doing a 8.7 gb patch. I will let it finish and see if I can log in. If I can't, I will blow it away again, and hunt down any other files for STO.

running vista 32
this fix did not work for me.

So I downloaded the game from fileplanet and my friends and I installed the "SAME" download on three different machines. 1 friend had to download a 100mb patch. another friend had to download a 1GB patch. I'm forced to download a 10GB patch. WTF?? How does this make any sense.
We're all running windows 7 64bit.

Until this afternoon, Steam was not correct setting the registry keys our client needs. If you restart Steam and then restart STO, it should find its data.

What about for those who did NOT download from Steam and have the same issue? I'm still downloading the patch for the past hour and a half. I downloaded from FilePlanet.

Try opening the location of the download from the fileplanet downloader. As far as I know, it should be a zip file. Just unzip everything and run the installer a second time. It should install the hogg files to a second location.

when you say unzip all the files, are u talking about the files inside the piggs folder?

i'm having the 10gig patch problem, i tried what u said, installed, re-unzipped the file back to the original folder, clicked install again, but now it says its only a 27 gig patch?

do i have to go through the piggs folder and unzip every individual file there?


driving me nuts, help??


thanks
