Title: Can't launch client
Post by: Le troll on September 05, 2014, 05:08:25 PM
I can't launch the client, because it can't find the aop.zip in zip directory, but the file is in right place wtf? And it asks me to run the updater.

Can't launch as it in crashes after launching? Or it doesn't run at all?

No, it doesn't crash as it can't run, after clicking I get the missing file+run updater mesage.

Try to unpack Aop.zip in your client\data folder, and remove:

# Ashes of Phoenix content
.\zip\aop.zip

from your DataFiles.cfg.

Then tell me if that works

Can you tell me your filepath to your exe? I've had reports that some players with special characters such as '-' or _ or spaces would run into that problem of not finding the dat file.

I unziped the file and removed the lines in data. It doesn't ask for updater any more. But it can't be lauched neither. I have half second blackscreen and after that return to windows.

copy/paste your fonline.log here

Make sure also that you have rights on all of these files, as if client didn't access to them it say the file wasn't found.

I found a fix, it's a bit noob work I know but it worked.
I launched the game from an external USB disk. No problems anymore.
