Crystal Aion next to Gamez Aion doesn't work

    Hello,

    I tried installing the launcher for Crystal Aion (2.7) but it doesn't start.
    Asus wants to update my BIOS when I start the launcher. I installed it next to the Gamez Aion launcher and that one still works.

    I tried repairing Aion but it didn't help. I saw it doesn't remove any files, so that might be it.

    I read in a thread that if you want both launcher, you just install them both. So not sure what the problem is.
    I even tried to update my BIOS, but it says it can't find the file at ftp.asus.com.tw (My BIOS should be up-to-date anyway)

    Help me please :sad:

    I posted this in the Crystal Aion section, but it has far less visitors and I'm eager to play.
    I suspect this problem has effected multiple people so someone from Gamez Aion might be able to help me as well.

    I just did a complete reinstall of the game with only the Crystal Aion launcher, and the exact same issue persists.

    Just the Framework did nothing, but I'm installing the updates for it as we speak. I will let you know.
    Thanks in advance. I will try the .bat if that doesn't work.

    I simply double-click the CAL icon, something will load, nothing will appear and then the BIOS update screen comes.
    So I don't get to see the launcher, and no loading screens whatsoever.
    With the GAL there are no issues at all.

    The hourglass next to my cursor appears. The .bat does not work either.
    Do I have to run that or something? I just put it in the Aion directory and tried launching the Crystal Aion Launcher. But like I said, that didn't work.

    yes lol the bat launcher is a substitute for the real launcher, it launches aion.bin with the correct IP to connect u to the crystal server
    (u can right click it and edit if u want, it opens in notepad and u see the content)

    Oh, how do I run it? My PC recognizes it as a .txt file. Simply renaming it to .exe doesn't work xD /fail

    its still weird, it shouldnt do that lol. also i thought the gamez and crystal launchers were compiled the same way (cant really see into it). anyways yea the updater is kinda useless as it is, u dont need a bios update till u make a major hardware change anyway
