Background download stuck at 99%?

I've been playing SW:TOR for about a week now, and the game has been completing the download in the background.

It stopped at 99.18% downloaded three days ago. Now, I'm level ten and finished on my planet, but I can't get off the planet because the game "is not fully downloaded". How do I get my computer to finish that last percent of download?


Solution 1:

This sounds like an issue with the patch streaming mode. Now that you're done the starter planet you don't need it, so you can disable it and hopefully the regular patch with work.

To do that, go to the folder where SWTOR is installed and open the launcher.settings file. Find each of these three lines:

, "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"BR\" }"
, "bitraider_disable": false
, "P2PEnabled": "true"

and replace them with these three:

, "PatchingMode": "{ \"swtor\": \"SSN\" }"
, "bitraider_disable": true
, "P2PEnabled": "false"

This might cause a redownload of the game, but it should complete this time.
