Updates: De-Censor and Cutscenes

The Japanese version finally went f2p as well, so I can make an update of the patches. The NPC Voicepatch didn't need any updates, so it's only the de-censor and the cutscenes.

[ De-Censor Patch v1.1 (110MB) | MF | RG ]
[ Japanese Cutscene Patch v.1.1 (46MB) | MF | RG ]

TERA EU Manual Patch Download

So as you might know, EME gives a direct link to their patches for people who have troubles with the launcher. Gameforge does not - or I haven't found out where. Long story short: it's manually downloadable as well, directly from gameforge's servers.

For the future, you can follow these instructions to get the newest patch:

1) start the launcher and let it create the patch files
2) go to your TERA directory and look for a folder that looks like this: pgc_v2_-1to11
3) take this link as a base and replace the occurrences with the files you need:

http://download.frogster-online.com/Tera/patches/game_v2/pgc_v2_-1to11/pgc_v2_-1to11.z01

4) this will give you the link to the first archive. To get all of them, go to the folder you found in step 2 and count the files. In this example, we have 13 files. This means we need links that end with .z01 to .z12, and one more link ending with .zip

What you gain from all this link creating is the possibility to download those archives with a download manager of your choice, potentially getting higher download speeds. The server seems to allow up to 6 concurrent connections. So, give it a try if you think the launcher is too slow. After downloading all the files, replace the files in your patch folder and start the launcher. It should begin checking the files and applying the patch.

edit: removed the links because they were apparently causing confusion. 
Just follow the template and make links valid for your case, e.g. 1to27 or 26to27
