    After the application of patch 1.5.1.0 to the Aion servers I found that my NCPATCH file collection could no longer be used to avoid the need to redownload the client hen installing.
    I had to come up with a new ‘fast’ install method.

    Anyone wishing to make an install ‘pack’ from their download can now use this method to build a DVD backup of their installation.
    This guide assumes you have already installed a working Aion and only want to make a backup.

    1) You will need the NCLauncher application from
    http://aion.patcher.ncsoft.com/liteinstaller/aion.exe

    2) You will want to copy the registry key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\NCsoft] using regedit , this key has your Aion install location within it (which can be editted to point to any location).

    3) You will want to copy the C:\Program Files\NCSoft\Launcher\Config\GamesAddendum.xml file from your install, this file also has the Aion install location within it (which can be editted to point to any location)

    4) You will want to copy the entire C:\Program Files\NCSoft\AionEU directory , this has the actual Aion game files.

    5) Take your NCLauncher installer, Registry file, XML file and Aion Directory and burn them to a disc. It is quite likely that the Aion directory is too big and so you may have to Zip it up first.

    To do a fresh install :-

    1) Run the NCLauncher installer and let it complete but do not tell it to add Aion.
    Once installed close the launcher and then copy the XML file back to C:\Program Files\NCSoft\Launcher\Config\GamesAddendum.xml

    2) Double click your registry save and accept to add it to the registry

    3) Unzip and copy your Aion files back to C:\Program Files\NCSoft\AionEU

    You now have Aion installed again and only need to download the patches that have been applied since you made the backup 🙂
