WoW Patch problems :/

Post by Abbath »

Well though there was some nice things in the patch iwe heard it fucks up a lot of ppls WoW, and i think that inclueds mine :/

After the patch, every time i log in, i cannot se my character, allmost all ppl in game are seen as Unknown Entity, my whole inventory is big ?:s
and after a minute or so i get disconnected :(

Anyone have an idea if it's the patch thats fucked, of if it's my isp. My isp is realy worthless btw :(

Abbath,

I experienced some strange things with the new patch. I am sure some of them have to do with the Blizzard own addons,
One of them bwing unable to send mail.
I could not be bothered with it anymore and I have quickly re-installed wow. If you do, make sure you copy the pactches into the wow directory out, so you dont have to download them again.
I really dont think this is a ISP/connection problem but more a data related one.
Complicating is the true path to simplicity.

Deleting your interface folder / upgrading your addons tends to help too
Try deleting your WDB / WTF folders while you're at it

I get an error everytime I try to use the number key's: (1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9 and maybe even 0 and 5). says there is an error with interface/framXML/actionbutton.lua
But, when I try to move or delete it, off course all my "hotkeys" disapeer, and an error message pops up and can't be closed.

anyone else got that problem, or is it just my norwegian ass that get's mocked?

Deleting his interface, WDB and WTF folders worked for him .... suggest you try it :)

I had same problem Abbath. Had a lot of players/npc's being unkown entities. My mage couldn't see himself and when I finished epic staff quest on priest I got an unkown item in my inventory instead of the staff. All you have to do is delete every file in the WDB folder. That fixed all my problems.

One tip if you do decide to reinstall. There is a universal patch to 1.6.0 available. Using this one reduces the amount of patches needed to install a lot. :P (only 1.6->1.7->1.8 or so, instead of 1.3->1.4->1.5 etc etc).

Victory!

At last i have solved the problem, thanks to a thread on the wow technical support forum. The solution was to turn hardware checksumming of on your network card.

Well Abbath is back in black....to bad i dont get to rape someone @ blizzard :(
