Yeah, we have some helms of Drat 'Er that we'll distribute for free ^_^

Btw, teh updater will update the updater [I just love how that sounds :P] and then exit without replacing any files. I checked the "Skip updater checks" and that will download the stuff needed for the game. If anybody has that problem... well, that should be a fix. Or the updater -auto command...

Post by: Zalabard on September 15, 2006, 12:38:25 pm
After erasing (actually renaming ;D ) my version.dat, every option reverted back to something "default"

I mean: I had to re-select video size, skin, and re-align/set/modify all in-game windows... so long, so fine! Now I remember I could set the size of the toolbar to be smaller, but I canpt figure out how I did it  :-\
Any help?

I'm going to keep updating till a GM or dev mentions changing that file or deleting it.

I don't want my game to mess up.

Title: Re: updater works
Post by: Datruth on September 15, 2006, 12:51:30 pm
It aint working bro...

It says, wrong version of updater.
Title: Re: updater works
Post by: Datruth on September 15, 2006, 12:52:07 pm
lol, didn't do it ages ago, not working bro.

Not sure why?
~~~~~~~~

Heres what i did, i ran the updater like a million times, but it exits itself at the end.

Then i did what you said, removed the version file, and tried to update, same problem, exited itself at the end.

Tried to play the game didn't work.

Put the Version file back, didn't work.

Updated the game again with the version file, try to go in, didn't work.

So basically i'm stuck, and i don't know what to do.

I ran updater
it started updating itself
in the process i got message that cupandtalon.ttf can't be copied (i altered it and set read only so that updater wont delete it, but appearently because of some reason it couldn't come)
i clicked cancel
After that the updater wouldn't even launch (somethink got broken and i couldn't find out what)

So i moved all my mods to my PS backup
ran updater
it started updating itself
in the process i got message that cupandtalon.ttf can't be copied (i changed the file back to normal)
clicked try again
The updater told me to delete the version.dat and restart
i deleted it and didn't restarted updater
i udated and now the update is complete ;)

So you eighter need PS backup, or instal file to install it again and update.

Post by: Datruth on September 15, 2006, 01:41:15 pm
Nah, it wasn't my fault, it's fixed now.

It was on their end.

They fixed the problem, and now i updated.

Everythings fine now.
