FAQ

• Q: Is using this against the SWTOR terms of service?
  A: No, it doesn't modify the game files itself in anyway. If you wish you can download the files in your regular web browser instead if you know the URLs to the files.
• Q: How does it work?
  A: It checks the version-number you entered and tries to find it on Bioware's servers. If found, it will download this version.
• Q: Will using this tool corrupt my installation?
  A: Nope! You can select the folder where you want to download the files and keep it separate from existing installations.
• Q: Does it work for the PTS?
  A: Yes.
• Q: Will it work for French and German assets?
  A: Yes.
• Q: Can I use this to download patches at work without a SWTOR installation?
  A: Yes. An existing SWTOR installation is not required.
• Q: Why is the GUI freezing while downloading?
  A: Because I was too lazy to thread the GUI. The download status is displayed in the console and the GUI will react again when the download is finished or canceled.

Troubleshooting

• Q: My antivirus blocks the file.
  A: The program is a compiled python file. Some antivirus programs have problems with them. Don't worry.
• Q: I get "Version not found!" after I clicked download."
  A: Make sure you entered a correct version-id (like 300) or a valid version number (like 6.0).
