[TUTORIALS FOR BEGINNERS] (Launching, errors...)

[Elven]

Literally just copy the RoR launcher, and paste it inside the game folder.

Hi! First of all, just want to say thanks for all the work you guys have put in. It's really impressive what a small team of you guys have done.

So, a few questions/concerns. I downloaded all the parts of the game client and the launcher. I created a second folder named "Warhammer Online" to extract them into and started the process. During this process it said that the first part of the download (Age_of_Reckoning_game_client I believe?) and client.z07 were corrupted. I redownloaded and replaced them with the new ones and got the same error.

Despite that, I went ahead and still tried to run the game. I did check these forums first and made sure the read-only was unchecked and ran the client as an administrator and also made sure the RoR launcher was in the Warhammer Online folder. This was my error log:

Spoiler:

Data.myp:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'C:\Users\Chance\Desktop\Warhammer Online\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\data.myp'.
File name: 'C:\Users\Chance\Desktop\Warhammer Online\Warhammer Online - Age of Reckoning\data.myp'

at MYPHandler.MYPHandler..ctor(String filename, del_FileTableEventHandler eventHandler_FileTable, del_FileEventHandler eventHandler_Extraction, HashDictionary hashDic)
at RoRLauncher.Client.UpdateWarData()

I also received another error that said the file "binkw32.dll" was missing. I have no idea what that means, so I'm hoping you guys can help me out.

Thanks in advance!

The first error means your game folder is write protected. Follow advices to make it unlocked.

Did you download the launcher from the installation guide?

Same here

Same here

So you've posted about having 2 different problems? Interesting. Anyway...

If you're getting this line of code in your error log:

Code: Select all

at System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounterLib.GetStringTable(Boolean isHelp)
at System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounterLib.get_NameTable()
at System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounterLib.get_CategoryTable()

You need to rebuild performance counters.

How to manually rebuild performance counters:

1. Go to start, and type in the search box "cmd". Right click cmd, and run as administrator.

2. Type in the command console, "cd c:\windows\system32", and hit enter.

3. Then type "lodctr /r", and hit enter.

3. It will take a few seconds to perform the command.

Performance counters should be rebuilt. Try loading the game, again.
