The Unofficial Tiara's Moonshine Mod & Autobot

Mabi added a new setting called "mini effects" that removes the fartsparkles from magic and trans and final hit and stuff.

and they enable it by default?

[Lady Playtime]

I'm all for making things playable and more enjoyable for the common folk, but I really hate seeing games update with downgraded content...
Even more so when their server is utter crap, so instead of fixing that, they fix things most people couldn't care less about.

>not specifically related to that new feature, just generalizing.

[Toanyboyz]

So like I finish downloading mods and then im suppose to Find & Modify, which i cant do cause it says:
"PACK malformatted" ... what happened? o-o

[Lady Playtime]

Delete your language.pack, and let it repatch.

An increasingly common issue, when packing data folder mods.

[ShaggyZE]

If you get .pack is "malformated" delete language.pack from the package folder then run mabinogi.exe to download a new language.pack and it should let you apply mods again.

[geosun]

For some reason i get squares in place of text, for all of the new titles and a few other things. Is there a language pack i need to instal in order to see them?

[ShaggyZE]

chances are the mods didn't get packed into language.pack correctly or were overwritten; so use data packer.exe or UOTiaraPack.bat to apply the data folder mods again.

[CoalChris]

its a good mod , everything work pretty well , so i only have 1 question. Somehow i  cant join any parties on party board , what should i do? i can display those parties on party board , just somehow i cant join them . o.o

Same thing happening to me, I've removed all data-packed mods but whenever I attempt to join a party from party board some Korean text pops up. I suspect Nexon dun goof'd.

Also, I'm finding packs seem to malformat a lot more often recently (this year). Not just language, sometimes I get several large packs malformatting too. It's nice having backups on 2 computers, a laptop and an external HD.

No, it's not enabled by default really. It's a new feature they say that automatically triggers if your FPS drops below 10 say, say at a dragon raid. It happened to me when I went, it gave me a message along the lines of "The settings will automatically be adjusted to improve your game performance" and I think it may've given me the option to decide if I wanted it to do it or not but I can't recall since I was lagging so bad I'd of hit yes to it either way. xD

You can see it added to the "The Saga:IRIA" news post -

Additional Features
      -Minimize Effects option added < will turn off beam swords and such
      -Any time the client drops under 10FPS it will adjust the settings

Part of the mod that turns partyboards into housing boards, is it prevents you from joining parties on the board, and it prevents others from joining your party on the board...

Unless you turned that mod off, maybe it's the unlimited party time mod.

I see.

I'd say add that to the FAQs on the first post, but it's blatantly apparent nobody reads it, with the weather removal questions being asked nearly every 10-20 posts.

i dunno, if i ever tried to make a real FAQ; i would need to use an entire page just to cover everything and as you said, people would still continue to ask the same qustions.

I don't use party2housing, I love my production parties more than searching up items. Besides, I was running a clean client, nothing whatsoever.

Attached.

Also, I've spent the last 30 minutes messing around with maps and stuff, but I CANNOT GET COURCLE MAP TO CHANGE! I've checked the name of the new map is exactly the same as the old one, and Data Packer even SAYS that 153-155 has been modified with the map, but in-game the map stays as an unmodified courcle map. While I'm at it, I've also attached a screenshot of the new file names for Iria (There are also some random files and foreign server files, just look at the ones for NA ^^)

i have yet to even look at the maps, but someone also posted that the minimapinfo and/or abyss's MiniMapZoom may be causing the old maps to load instead, but i will probably work on this in a few hours.

and have you tried both minimap_iria_courcle_new_eng.jpg or minimap_Iria_courcle_eng.jpg

There is no "new" one in the packs.
But I'll try removing Abyss MiniMapZoom and minimapinfo and check.

yea i know, just figured you could try since they added 'new' to the other ones, but if you check.

Um When I finish downloading the mods it says I need .net 2010 and vc+ 2010. I tried downloading those and it says I have a more recent version or same version of those. When I let it use datapacker, I start the game and the mods don't work. What do I do to fix this?

[ShaggyZE]

when you use data packer and click find then modify does it show a list of files that say modded?

[Rydian]

Did some testing of various formats.

FON format (older-style bitmap fonts like in older Windows versions), PCF format (Linux, etc.), and BDF format all give the same IME issue on startup.  Didn't bother trying scarcer formats like BSD uses and such.

Code: [Select]

esl::IIMEEventHandler::~IIMEEventHandler()+0xe3e2
FNT format (like Rockbox uses and BMF makes) allow the client to start, but character entry is bugged so it's hard to log in, and even if you succeed...


The UI is completely messed up, I can't even find where to continue since the various buttons are either shrunk or cover the whole screen and overlay each other.  At this point you might as well use CTRL+N and CTRL+P when playing.

So it seems to me that Abyss is indeed calling an alternate font rendering routine and not simply replacing the normal TTF font?

I've turned off Abyss MiniMapZoom and it still remains as an unedited map. :l

[ShaggyZE]

hmm, doesn't make sense.

i still haven't got a chance to look at it myself but it looks like its going to be a pain in the to figure out.

At CoalChris

May sound dumb and insulting, but go through your folders linking to the cor map, and the cor map itself, and try re-typing all the required files.  Apply mods w/ whatever method you use.

And if it's worth anything, my line in data/db/minimapinfo.xml, simply cuz i don't know if it could affect any of this and not really interested in testing.

[ShaggyZE]

the cor map he has is installed to the correct location and named correctly by the installer
and your minimapinfo.xml line is the same as mine

something else is causing the problem.

[Hellz92]

I have the same problem with the iria map.  The problem is that normally the folder is data/gfx/gui/map_jpg,  or something like that.  However since last patch some of the files got moved to data/_fx/map_jpg.  When adding this folder to your data folder,  datapacker won't recognize it. This makes you unable to change the files that got moved to folders starting with_.  I dont know a solution for this yet.  If you want to be fully sure you have the same problem as me,  unpack your. Pack and see if it makes those_ folders.
