How do you mean?
You install the program. you run it with admin privledges.
the first time you open the settings, add check marks appropriate to your amount of RAM.
Specifics on what files do what are not defined and you have to experiment with them, in part because some of these change patch to patch.
Save the settings and run the program.
When you want to undo/remove the RAMdrive you reopen the launcher and choose remove and quit.

Galactic Starfighter broke SWTOR Unleashed. If I try to load through SWTOR Unleashed, the game freezes (and can also freeze your computer as well)

Hey all

I have a problem using unleashed. Sometimes when i start the game with unleashed and there is a new patch, updater redownloads almost entire (or all of it) game again. Couple montths back i even gave up on the game completely becouse i was too pissed off after another redownloading. GSF took me back so im curious if there is some way to avoid the problem? I hate this damend engine and cant force myself to play groud game without unleashed.

Thanks in advance

When theres a patch, click the Retail button on unleashed, then patch. after patching you can run unleashed. If you try to patch with unleshed running it can screw up.

I haven't had a problem with it.

If I Deselect everything in the Options, I get about a -200 MB file size for the RAM Drive with the new patch. This -200 MB adds into everything if I select my normal assets and the +100 MB extra option. When I make the RAM Drive, windows complains that the Drive is getting low on space.

The game plays fine for me, but this bug might be what is crashing your game: SWTOR Unleashed cannot fit everything on the RAM Drive it makes. Try selecting the +100 MB extra option until this bug is fixed.

EDIT: I was running an old version of SWTOR Unleashed. Updating to 3.4.2 fixed this problem.

Yeah i was suspecting that but how do i know if there is a new patch deployed? Looks like ill have to run retail first everytime to be sure they didnt add some unannounced hotfix. Its better than redownloading this crap all the time hehe. Thanks.

Thats not unleashed, thats the bitraider patcher most likely unless your unleashed is running when the patch goes out. To fix, if you have the st in the lower left corner, look up posts on reorganizing data and it will tell you how to modify the patching to the old way.
If unleashed is running when a patch comes it, it can cause the system to try to patch the RAM disk files not the originals, which will cause issues. make sure to remove and quit or use the retail function for patches. Once the patch is working unleashed normally works fine. If unleashed seems to crash after a patch, try deleting the config file for it and reloading, chances are the file sizes changed and it needs to be adjusted in the settings file.

For the life of me I can't get this program to work. I've updated Microsoft .NET Framework and ImDisk numerous times and rebooted when prompted, but every time I try and open up SWTOR Unleashed I'm given something about "system.windows.interactivity publickeytoken=31bf3856ad364e35". I haven't got a clue what I can do to make this program run and it's annoying, since apart from upgrading my PC this is my only hope for running the game more smoothly.
