Can't download episode 2? Try this

Found these tips to resolving this issue for MAC on the following thread (see post from agentbias on pg 5): http://www.telltalegames.com/community/discussion/90771/mac-season-pass-episode-2-still-won-t-download - thanks peeps!!

I then modified those steps for Windows XP (sorry, I am not familiar with Windows 7 or 8 so hopefully you'll be able to modify the following for those OS as well):

(Before you begin, it may help to make sure you can view your hidden files in your folders. You can check this by going to Control Panel, Folder Options -> View and selecting "show hidden files and folders.")

  1. I created a new folder on my desktop and copied the contents from the C:\Documents and Settings[user]\My Documents\Telltale Games\Game of Thrones folder
  2. Deleted the Game of Thrones folder from My Documents
  3. Launched the game. I now had the option to download episode 2, which I did. It took forever but it could have just been my connection... it isn't the most reliable.
  4. After install, I closed the game, and then opened the old GoT folder and the new one side-by-side. I then copied all the files from the old folder into new folder EXCEPT for the NET folder and its contents. I replaced ALL duplicate files inside the new Game of Thrones folder with the ones from my old folder EXCEPT the NET files/folder. I left any new files alone.
  5. Re-launched the game...Episode 2 was live and ready, and my choices carried over.

Hope this helps others.
