Hey there!
I was trying to make a US-version of DAoC on my computer to play a bit over there too, but encountered a problem:
My patcher dies after 5 seconds!
I copied my DAoC folder to a new folder and called it "DAoC-US"
then changed the update.dat file to:
Mythic Patch
patch.daoc.net:1280/updates/darkness/mpatch.dat
patch.daoc.net:1280/updates/darkness/mpatch.dat
Then made sure there was no spaces in the end or needless empty lines at the bottom!
Then I ran camelot.exe, it DL'ed a new .exe file and restarted itself, checked for updates files and started to Download!
Well, it downloads 1-2 files, then freezes completly, need to ctrl+alt+del and shut it down that way and run it again, needless to say, 73.8mb of patch will take all night if I have to reboot the patcher for every 2 files!
Any suggestions to fix it?
BTW:
I tried the following already:
Patch Catacombs instead...
Reboot...
Redo it (2 x copy and change update.dat)
Checked administration menu to look for a error log (found nothing)
I just can't figure it out! and it is not the same file that crash it every time, it is a new one, it is right when it is going to display the "Downloaded XX.XXmb of XX.XXMb (XXXKb/s)" message between the 2 status bars at the buttom!
