Hi. I am trying to help my friend today play on our wonderful Uthgard server, but something has come up that seems to have thrown a wrench in things. Please go to the follow link and check this out.

If you scroll down a little bit, it appears as though mythic has decided to merge the EU servers into the US ones, and in the process unified their version by taking the EU version to 1.100? Now, this wont effect any of us who have set up everything prior to Feb 17 1210. We are fine.

Anyone who tries to follow the directions to setup now, however, might have problems. When my friend installs and updates LOTM, it seems to take him directly to version 1.100 and not the Uthgard compatible 1.195. After setting up DAOC portal with all the right settings and mods, the game ( DAOC ) craches when DAOC portal tries to launch it (upon trying to login) ...and we cant find any way to make this work. Please help, advise us. Thanks!

US version is atm supported by Uthgard - so it is atm no problem

Odd... then could you offer some advice on what the problem would be? My friend followed all the steps...

1. DL and installed EU LOTM installer.
2. Ran updater to patch to latest version.
3. Installed DAOC Portal and verified client path and version settings
4. Created mods folder and put in appropriate .dmm files
5. Checked and patched mods
6. Chose Uthgard in server list, input username/pass, and after hitting "play" daoc tries to launch and crashes with windows saying DAOC encountered a problem and had to be shut down.
7. Checked the details box and says something maybe related to game.dll and various data adress codes (cant understand it)

Initially we asssumed he had a version too new for Uthgard, so we tried a new 2nd install of LOTM, and it still gave same problems (however the second install seemed to update VERY VERY fast- as if it wasnt actually redownloading that 3.3 gig update).


edit: I have another question. Are you also saying then that the US DAOC client is now compatible with Uthgard too? Reason I ask is because it seems as though mythic has essentially forced the EU client to become compatible with US servers- which involved changing client specific thigns that the EU servers had that US servers dont.

yes the US version works too

have he tried setting camelot.exe as "run as admin"?

not 100% sure what might be the issue - its def. not the server it is something with his client or his computer not letting camelot.exe run properly

OK. So now that the old GOA client links dont work any more... where would a new person dl the client from now... and what version of what does Uthgard require?

1.95+

I'm running on 1.100 and it doesen't work, even with "run as admin".
Can't play on Uthgard anymore.

did you go from EU -> US?

if so it mess up something - if you however get a fresh install of US server patch 1.100 it will work (what im using atm)

Nope i'm using EU client, and just patched it to 1.100

Well i'm gonna install US client i think...

that is what I meant - you need to get a fresh client download
