Magicockerel Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Edit: Looks like I've found the solution... I had to go into the Bethesda launcher settings and save. As there are very limited settings, I've only done this once or twice when trying to find a fix. This only seems to work half the time, and I have to click install pretty quickly after saving my settings for it to actually work for whatever reason, which is why I guess I didn't come across this sooner. I've reinstalled the game itself twice and the Bethesda launcher countless times trying to fix this, this has been an experience haha. The cause seems to be a poor connection to the Bethesda servers for whatever reason, considering I can download from the Nexus at 10+ MB/s, and it's apparently going to take me 90 minutes to download the 80 MB Creation Kit. I'm in one of the far corners of the world... Australia, so I guess they don't have any local servers. I can't remember having these connection issues in the past, though. Just leaving this in case someone else has a similar issue. I've been trying out solutions to even somewhat related problems that I've found through Google, and none of them mentioned anything along these lines. Original Post: I'm having trouble reinstalling the CK. I'm hoping that I'm just being an idiot and missing something, but all that's happening at the moment once I click install is Bethesda's square logo rotating endlessly in the center of the launcher, as shown here: http://i.imgur.com/FubiD3u.jpg Hopefully someone has either encountered this before, or can point me in the right direction. This all started earlier this week, when Steam screwed up installing the latest version of FO4 somehow. I was having issues validating the CKs files around the same time, or something along those lines, and I figured it would be easier to reinstall (considering it's only 70 MB). The issue is that nothing happens when I click on the install button (beside the spinning square logo). I ended up doing a clean install of FO4, that works just fine, but the CK doesn't seem to want to install. I'm not sure if Steam screwing up the update for FO4 is related, but it did occur at pretty much the same time (just as I'd reinstalled FO4). I've tried reinstalling the Bethesda launcher, running in administrator mode, disabling my firewall, leaving it open for long periods with the logo spinning, and nothing seems to be working. This has been going on for the past 5 or so days, and I'm out of ideas at this point. Nothing relevant comes up on Google. I've got Skyrim's CK installed as well, and that works fine, but that of course runs through Steam. I've had no issues with FO4's CK prior to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I can't really do much without the CK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
