The Unofficial Tiara's Moonshine Mod & Autobot

[ShaggyZE]

it's actually any .pack that causes that error, but most likely being the language.pack and most hoped as it's the easiest to replace.

I keep getting a "abyss/crackshield failed to extract please check your firewall or antivirus program" and i don't have either of those activated. I don't know why it keeps erroring like that.

Here is the issue a handful of us are having.
#edit - Uninstalled McAfee and verified firewall settings and VC++ 2010 and .Net Framework 4 (I Have both up-to-date). Tried to run UOTIARA again, and same error.

There are a few things that this could also be caused by:

How much RAM do you have available?  This is asked because the installer does take up residence in your RAM while it's doing the work of extracting, downloading, and installing.  If you only have 2 GB of RAM to work with and are running the installer along with quite a few browser windows and other things open, then this may be why.  You'd think that Windows XP on up to 10 would have sorted these issues with good swap file management, but it isn't always efficient.  So you work around this by closing programs and processes that you aren't using at that moment.

The less often thought of thing, but perhaps obvious to some is:  Are you running this in Administrator mode?  This is required in order for the installer to have the permissions necessary in order to do it's work.  The installer is generated from another PC, then uploaded to a file server...  Windows 7 (not sure about XP) on up at least by default "blocks" programs/files from other PCs.

the easiest way to check is to see if the abyss.rar is being downloaded into the mabinogi folder, then see if unrar.exe is being ran to try to extract it, whatever is preventing the extraction is the problem, which is most commonly anti virus programs, but can be OS related as well if certain files are missing or certain commands are not sent/received properly
which is basically 'UnRAR.exe x -o+ "Abyss.rar"'
i'll add error checking for displaying the correct reason for the failure to install and allow the user to open abyss.rar manually if the download works, but extraction fails.

Updated to v215.0.0.1:
Trimmed mod names and categories for better navigation.
Replaced Logue's MabiLauncher with PowerPatcher 2.0
Added install types 'Full, Typical, Needed on this system, None and Custom' however i'm still in the process of deciding which mods will go in which install types and may turn to the public (that means you...) for suggestions.
Added mouseover tooltips displaying 'Name, Files, Creator and Description', but may move it to the gui for more room and information at a later time.
Started separating mods that have multiple files to allow users to change each individual file or as a group, but considering the amount of files uo tiara installs this one is going to take me another week or so to complete and i believe it's worth it.
Abyss now has error checking for if the package fails to download or extract, manual extracting if unrar.exe fails (Abyss.rar opens in your default .rar program and you manually extract it to the Mabinogi directory), but i may just add Abyss.rar mirrors just in case, now Abyss.ini is backed up as Abyss(YmdHms).ini to avoid over writing and easy editing, but i'll need to add a delete backups option, added HSUpdate.vbs to be ran after extraction (its forced atm, but i'll have an option to edit PowerPatcher's startup settings in the future).

Entering dunb bank causes screen to turn black, assuming the game is putting me into max zoomed out because zooming real close allows me to see again, but only when fully zoomed it :/ I was trying to find the camera zoom addon but can't seem to find it when installing tiara. Could use help.

[ShaggyZE]

that's abyss.ini, not tiara

[dtdsora]

Autobot doesnt work correctly with fossil restoration (nor does it seem to want to download through the installer, ended up having to use the link the installer has) For some reason, it always seems to restore slightly to the left

[ShaggyZE]

it has x,y offset settings in the .ini file for compensating for that.

[dtdsora]

it has x,y offset settings in the .ini file for compensating for that.

So just keep fidgiting with the x offset until it works properly?
EDIT: Ok, apparently just restarting the client fixed the problem 

[ShaggyZE]

basically that and trying different resolutions, windowed/fullscreen mode, pc's to determine why it's off as it is.

Fixed
Autobot Shaggy will get to when he has time, but otherwise it's updated to v217

This info is also in the chatbox as well for uoTiara.

Some things for people to bear in mind... While files are being uploaded, hammering the server doesn't help. =/ 
The files were done in a matter of minutes.  It took more time to upload than it did to update the files and make the installer.  There was a small hiccup because the name of our patch changed, but otherwise all is well.  People I noticed that have been posting have been using stuff other than Tiara or outdated Tiara files...  This will cause a lot of problems, crashes, freezes, hangs, etc.  This is because the XML files are outdated.  Get the latest, resolve your issues.... Otherwise if you're using mod_sharker be sure to mention this or any other mods that you're using aside from Tiara...

im not sure if im imaging this or not but
after i downloaded the mod

when i go to do saga ep 4. the one where people usually get 100k-500k in gold.
i get at least about 150k per run.

after i downloaded moonshine i only got 4k in 30 mins
im not sure if its the mod or i did something.

gold is also dropping in small piles, HELP

Per the site chatbox:

I found a cutscene issue:
I'll be testing it out shortly but am 99.9% certain it should work fine.
Original Tiara didn't have the entries into cutscene_bossroom_event3.xml
The Christmas entries were missing
This is all fine and dandy when you're not running the event dungeons (aka not available/enabled server side) but can be a real pain when not working. Updated the file and also set a patch to disable abyss cutscene skip as this is a common issue.
cutscene_bossroom_event2.xml as well is part of this. Once these have been added in all should be well. They're in the latest.
I can foresee some other issues in the near future; just something we need to be aware of and mindful of.

updated to v217.0.0.1 Hotfix

Is it just me or is the mod that shows the return position for housing coupons no longer working?

that mod is CouponPosition=1 in Abyss and it appears that it's not loading in Abyss_patchlog.txt so currently the patch is removed.

I'm having Font problems, I keep getting this ugly new font when I install Tiara's Moonshine. Any help? There's was no Font folder to change anything like there used to be.

Edit: I had to go into abyss I guess? I did some editing, and it turned out ALOT better but it's not back to normal. Any info would be helpful. I'm sick of spending hours on this if there is an easy fix people know of.

[Rydian]

Turn both options that say "bitmap" to 0.

[Toxicshot]

Turn both options that say "bitmap" to 0.

That's what I did, it "fixed" it but didn't exactly bring it back to the default font. Eh, It's fine. I'll keep trying later on. Thanks anyways :x

[Rydian]

/data/gfx/font/ is where replacement font files would be if one is still around.

[loljullz]

if I want to update tiara setting, or change some of the packs I installed

how do I do that without installing doubles?

should I just uncheck abyss, and change the setting I need, or is there another way?

(ex.when I downloaded I didn't pick autobot, I want it now, and I could find a download for just the autobot.)

thanks.

[ShaggyZE]

installing it again and changing settings is fine, their will be no doubles.
keep abyss checked, your previous abyss.ini will be saved and you can copy your mods to the new abyss.ini

My character becomes frozen in place when I try to open the boss door in the Math Holiday event dungeon. I'm guessing it's some conflict with the cutscene skipping mods. Any idea which files I should remove to remedy this issue? Thanks for the great work on this stuff.
