Missing Map files in patcher

azlegre · 05-08-2007, 10:41 PM

Well, I figured out the problem (for me) for the failed to create zone error I was getting. I'm simply missing map files, however, the problem is the patcher does not have the files either. Lucky for me I was able to download the normal files off file planet and get most of the normal zones working. However, I have several issues with the maps (unable to interact with the dock bells in nekulos) and Feerrot loads a black screen and I need to use my call of Kelethin to get out. So, using advice to delete the files, then do a full file scan to *download* them did not work. Does anyone have any knowledge on how to get these, so far I've only found 5 or so corrupted files, and any help would be appreciated.

There are options for "additional" content on the launchpad preferences menu. Please make sure all of those boxes are colored in when you run the complete file check.

So I tried that idea, however the map files that are broken still didn't download. The patcher has, however, downloaded all the EoF and previous expansions fine. -Nekulos maps don't download (nektulos.vpk) -Feerrott maps don't download I've tried completely deleting the files, and just moving them to a different folder, neither worked to get the launcher to download them.

Having the exact same problem in feerrott and nek, cant use the dock bells in nek or feerrott and if i try to move away from the dock bell in feerrott I fall through the world and get a black screen with the only fix being to use my call of XXX spell. Not sure why this is happening, I've tried reinstalling, deleting the files and all that but with no avail. Kinda sucks cause I cant get to the land part in feerrott... I can see the forest but the stone walkway from the mariner bell through the cave just doesnt seem to load.
