Hi all,

i gone back playing DAoC with my wife after 5 years.

i installed the full client, installed daoc portal, downloaded and installed the old 1.109 DLL, installed the needed mods listed in the installation instructions. all launchs fine and clear. now i moved near the outpost just north of mularn for one of the low level quests and i keep getting CTDs. well, i found the critical.log file where it says it can't load some files. i checked in the daoc folders and i miss those files.

Code: Select all

Error Loading Effect Template #10190 (Effects/Relic_Lightbeam_Blue.nif)!
NDLLoadEffectTemplate() Error: [Cannot open file.]
Error Loading Effect Template #10191 (Effects/Relic_Lightbeam_Green.nif)!
NDLLoadEffectTemplate() Error: [Cannot open file.]
Error Loading Effect Template #10196 (Effects/ward_siegeward.nif)!
NDLLoadEffectTemplate() Error: [Cannot open file.]
Failed on-demand load of figure #823 [Figures/DR_ZombiePet]


^ this is the critical.log file content.

now, if i run the daoc patcher, it just says the game is up to date (even if i have the old 1.109 game.dll)

i'm trying to figure out why there are those files missing, but seems i can't sort it out. oh my OS is windows 7 ultimate, all the exes have admin rights in the properties... looks like i don't have those needed files. another thing, i have installed daoc on other 3 machines and all of those installs havent the files the critical.log needs to run the game correctly.

asking for help.. badly.

thanks in advance.

Hi,
try run camelot.exe force update and downgrade your client again with 1.109 game.dll ! That should help ya.
