Granted, we don't really know what he's hung up on at the moment...
Lewis128, if your second character is patching SWTOR differently than the first, then it sounds like you have created more than one "Game" and/or "Game Profile" for SWTOR in Inner Space, and assigned them to different Characters during the wizard? They should both be using the same Game and Game Profile. To check this, select each of your Characters in the top left pane in ISBoxer, and look at the "Game" and "Game Profile" drop-down boxes. They should be the same for both, so they will both use the same SWTOR install.
Thanks.
It sounds like that may have been the issue, and being brand new to this, I didn't even know it was a problem, much less know what to look for to resolve it. All the guides and tutorials in the world are of little help if you don't know what question to ask. Hence the frustration.
I had already stumbled across what I believe to be the solution to the follow/assist problem but couldn't get logged in to work the issue. (more frustration)
I had somehow managed to log in once, so I went looking for answers to sort out what i had done to foul it up. I found something about adding "-nobitraider" to the paramater line of the game profile.
Multiple attempts, even double checking I spelled it right. Still getting errors trying to download this weeks updates. (possibly because it was trying to over-write?) so more frustration.
And by this time, of course, it's day 7, and I really can't ask for help with a problem until I know it IS a problem.
So yea, my first post was a bit more frustration-venting than asking for help. And I do appreciate your effort to help me figure it out, Lax.
I'm sorry, this seems, based on what I've been able to learn about it, to be the most versatile program out there. And apparently the only viable option for SWTOR that I've been able to find.
But this is a hobby for me. Not something I want piling on more stress, and the welcoming committee made it more than abundantly clear I'm not welcome.
If they had held off and let you, the admin, handle the situation, things would be very different.
I attempted to PM you rather than posting here, but there it is.
Sorry to bother you.
