Hey guys!

The existing thread about this error is locked. So maybe this one can be merged or closed after I figure this out?

I cant get the game to play

I know this issue has been raised before so I tried the suggested solutions but still nothing.

Downloaded client via DDL
Unpacked .zip
Added .dat files
Ran updater

Wild error appeared!

Continue to black screen

(Yes all of my net settings are up to date)

Did I do something wrong?
Here's a couple of screens, any help is appreciated as always.

Cant wait to get back in action.

it's probably your datafiles .cfg
This is what mine looks like http://pastebin.com/cUkLe9JX

Thanks smalltime.

Not entirely sure what I'm looking at. How do I open a .cfg please?

Can you tell me which direct download link is doing this?

You can open a .cfg with notepad or any other text edit software really.

Actually this issue were fixed already, does the game works if you just ignore that error? does the aop.zip file present in the Zip folder?
Try to unpack aop.zip into data folder with change.
Try to use this executable file : http://fonline-aop.net/FTP/Release/Client/exe/FOnline.zip (make backup)

Stem are you playing again ?

You don't need AoP.zip if you have downloaded the client from the DDL link now.

Stem are you playing again ?

Will be! The moment I can get online. Re-downloading from DDL as I type, so fingers crossed.

OK, so...

I downloaded from the DDL again and no luck. I'm still getting the same error message.

I did everything right, I don't remember ever having any problems at all last September. :/
I just don't understand.

@Vector

No the game just crashes on a black screen if the error is ignored.

""Try to unpack aop.zip into data folder with change.

Tried this, I just get some kind of dll error?

This whole thing is probably just me being noob...I followed all the instructions and tried all the different solutions but still :/

Thanks for the patience.

Try to use old executable with unpacked zip file, i dont know how to fix this if it wont work, also, how exactly it crashes? just black screen or some error messages? because in first case it's probably downloading the caches, just need to wait couple minutes.

Will try that today.

So far its goes like this...

Launch game
.zip error message appears
(ignore message)
Black screen appears (No control, no mouse cursor, waiting does nothing and pressing Esc closes it only sometimes. I usually have to Alt+Tab out and then close...)

The whole thing is very strange.

The problem now seems to have changed...I downloaded again, added .dat's and then ran updater.
Now I get this crash dump.

Any help appreciated.

Here's the, dump...

Gotta run updater to get the latest and greatest crap or else you'll crash.

Thanks for reply!

Of course, I did that before launching the game (But after adding the .dat's). It loaded in all the new sound files and stuff, it took around 15 mins for the updater to finish. So i'm assuming that's everything.

Just ran updater again (just to be sure) It says, checking complete no update required. :/

Have you tried both the DX and regular .exe? Stem come on IRC so we can sort this out in realtime!
