I’m proud to announce that our brand new automatic installer / updater is now available for Windows XP, Vista, 7 and Mac OS X. You can now use this special installer to automatically update your Dugi Guides before you play WoW.
The installer will be able to accept your Dugi Guides (ultimatewowguide.com) login and password, to automatically install all your purchased guides with one click.
With the release of this installer we will no longer send you anymore ‘Update’ emails on bug fixing. You can simply check for updates instantly by loading the installer before you play, and details of the update will be available in the log.
OK go download it right now in the download area, and tell us what you think by posting on the comment section below.

Wonderful tool to save having to go keep track of versions, thank you !
Now to ensure I don’t have to keep reminding myself to run it… it would be great if you could get its memory usage optimised a little and add the ability to keep it running in the background – i.e. minimise to system tray – with a icon to show updates available.
Thanks in advance

Running on 4 different flavors of Macs and 2 OSX operating systems. Updater works flawlessly. Love the Account pane on the left and the blog pane top-right. Good job.

If you’re using a security software make sure you add an exception for the installer

Installed and ran it, works awesome.
For those running Win 7 64 bit, make sure you install the appropriate version of java. Check your browser, if you use the 32bit, install 32 bit java, if you use 64bit, install 64 bit java; if you use both, install both.
I run win 7 Ultimate, 64 bit but I use 32bit Win IE, so I’ve installed the 32 bit version and it works for me.

Works great on Windows 7 and Vista.. Thanks – I did have to uninstall JAVA and re-install it, now works perfect. Thanks again.

I had no issues loading the installer. Only issue issue is… it says I’m a trial customer when I put in my SN and PW. However, this looks like it’ll be a lot nicer than the previous installer.

If the installer works for you as trial then it should definately work with your Login & Password, make sure that it is correct.
Reply
It is correct. I just reset it as well to make sure! Keeps saying “Invalid username/password” Download guide is current too.

I am able to login and update guide without a problem, but the button that turns to ‘play’ doesn’t launch the game.
Reply
I can confirm that the play button doesn’t launch wow for the Mac we will fix this soon.

Hi,
INstalled OK for me. Where is the resultant application to launch it after the first time or does it automatically check as part of the wow start-up?
Reply
I’m not sure what you mean, you need to run the same file again to check for updates. It will be in your download directory.

having same problem. cannot find the launcher.exe. it is not in the download directory.

Should be in World of Warcraft\Launcher.exe
it should detect it, otherwise copy and paste the shortcut from your World of Warcraft shortcut.

Doug, this looks good to me. This will be a much better download process. Thanks.

Hi. Downloaded your auto updater but accidently closed the window where you put in your user id and password….now it thinks I’m a trial user…..have tried redownloading it several times with no success. Could you please tell me how to get that window back? When i enter game everything seems to be there but I did not fill in that window and it does state I’m a trial user….
Thanks.

Sorry..disregard my last post….didn’t see settings button…..oops

For some reason the installer will not work for me. On one computer I double click and it does nothing. On another it will give a warning about Java the first time, then like the first computer does nothing from then on regardless of how many times I try to start it. Any ideas?

Make sure you have the latest Java installed, you may need to uninstall your old version and reinstall the latest one.

How is it not working? does it load at all? did you try running it in Admin mode?
Are you sure you are using the latest installer?
Delete your current DugiGuides.exe and download again.

Yes I have download the latest installer I have deleted old one. Downloaded latest java . I have tried anything in the post. When it comes upit just stops working and it is says logging in but when I do trial evrything works fine.
Reply
What is happening when you enter your login name and password? It stops working, you’re not able to do anything with it? you can’t click settings menu or anything?
what does it say, can you send me a screenshot to dave at ultimatewowguide.com
I just tested your account and it seems to work fine.
It can take a bit of time for it to log in, are you able to log in our members area ok?

anyone still having a problem with this
Reply
yup mine still doesnt work
Reply
Could it be a problem on your end with us logging in with the downloader
Reply
Perhaps you should set useraccount this way that it dont give a message if a program try to change something on your computer? I have set it on 0 because if im updating qicktime I had always the same problem’. It blokked the installation.
Its in Windows 7 en Vista.
Reply
Just a quick note to say that mine is working fine on a 64bit vista.
This is a really polished and great downloader – well done! Very impressed
Thanks

Works great for me on a Mac. Thanks for delivering more and more value to your customers, Dugi!

well everytime i try to log in….it tells me invalid userid or password. but then i can go to your website…use the same user id and password and it works fine…

I tried downloading the installer but every time i try to open it does nothin have tried running as admin and still nothing

Uninstall Java completely, and reinstall again from http://www.java.com and it should work.
Reply
First it worked but i had to reinstall my system and now it dont work well anymore.
If i download java (windows 7 32 bit) i can run it and then it download the zipfile, but it wont install i have to do that manually.
If i install java 64 bit too then nothing works.. and if i uninstall 64 bit see above it start but dont install the files
Strange but true..
Reply
I can confirm there is a problem with 64 bit version of Java. Make sure you uninstall Java 64 and reinstall Java using a 32 bit browser like Firefox.
We will fix this as soon as possible
Reply
It works fine for me, i have 64bit java installed.
Reply
Works fine for me with 64 bit Java over firefox as well.
Any chance that you will release an installable version of the application that can reside in the system tray (windows) and identify when updates are available with a flashing (or different) icon ?
While this is significantly an easier method than going to the website, comparing and grabbing the updated guides, it is still a manually initiated task and I know I am often out of date still.
Thanks of course for the brilliant effort to date. Your guides and extras like this make this the only recommendable leveling product in the market.

mmm at last i checked the settings and that was the problem.. path was not set right.
I have changed it and now it works perfect.
If you start playing wow by clicking the updater, you are always up to date I should say?
Thats all you need.
