Crashes once left alone for long enough at the login screen, and/or getting past secondary password entry to character selection.  Like in this post: https://mabimods.net/index.php?topic=10456.msg251212#msg251212

- Crashes when used as a data folder.
- Crashes when used as a pack file.
- Does not crash when setting Abyss to not use the data folder and the UOTiara.pack is not in place.

Some information from the Abyss log, no exceptions detected but here's what's at the end after all the other Abyss mods finish patching.

Code: [Select]

I'm currently trying to go through \data\db files to see if there was an issue like a couple versions ago in the post above.  aircraftdesc.xml does not seem to be the culprit.

EDIT: The problem files appear to be \data\xml\skillleveldescription.english.txt and \data\local\xml\skillleveldescription.english.txt
Once I removed those files from my data folder, Mabinogi is now running fine.

[ShaggyZE]

hmm, not sure how that file was the problem saying as uo tiara doesn't mod it, only moves it.
i may have used and old language.pack while creating the .pack's so thanks for letting me know.

Delete "ijl11.dll" from your Mabi folder. That fixed it for me. (Make a copy of the file just in case though)

[ShaggyZE]

that's basically just deleting abyss though and disabling data folder read, so it would be relying on .packs to mod

[Sailor Arcana]

Oddly enough I don't currently have a language.pack in my package folder, which might be causing new and exciting issues, but I've noticed no ill effect so far.  I just use the data folder; I've come back to the game after quite some time so I've forgotten some of the fiddly setup bits.

[ShaggyZE]

might want to use the nexon launcher to repair your mabinogi installation

[Sailor Arcana]

I've done so and gotten the original language.pack file back, but unfortunately the xml files still make Mabi crash during/after second password entry.  Apologies if I'm missing something obvious and/or dumb.  The game still works when they are removed, so that will work for me for now.

I'm not sure if its Tiara or other simplification mods, but is it possible to determine the location of the cupid archer animation with the heart effect? I cant see mine

[adam2348]

Hope this helps: (currently using 278 mod on 280)

I have found that unchecking the following has allowed me to play:

Default Mods
-db
--Dark Knight Sound & Pet Summon Effect Removals

(Dark Knight Sound Pet Summon Effect Removals: Dark Knight Sound Removes Pet Summon_Quake Effects (\data\db\animationevent.anievent)

also noted that these patches failed in the abyss log:

Update Needed.  Please refer to the modding report for R279/280 for common files affected.

[ShaggyZE]

I won't be updating today, maybe tomorrow or later if I decide to wait for some of the Abyss patches to be updated first.
for now everyone follow adam2348's post.

Edit: (June 24th)
following Abyss's update; updated to R280

[darkflames9]

tiara still doesnt work for me.  It force closes on the loading screen.  I've disable everything listed for both tiara and abyss.  Vanilla mabi works though, as expected.

[Disregard]

Because it hasn’t been updated yet.

Literally, the post right above yours mentions the ETA and status of where Tiara is.  Also there's a modding report that mentions this as well.  Please refer to Shaggy's post above yours for info on what to do.  Thanks.

[darkflames9]

I know he hasn't updated it yet.  Shaggy mentioned that the post above him should allow the 278 patch to still work.  I've done that, unchecking the dark knight and pet sounds on install.  Also, I've gone on the abyss thread and disabled their list of deprecated mods.  I'm saying that for me, those temp fixes don't work and was wondering if that's just a problem on my end.

To be fair... You didn't mention that you tried that, until now.  So try to be thorough next time, as we only have what you provide to go on.

Ok as far as data folder related.  Refer to the modding report where I list which files are affected.

As far as Abyss, you can try and experiment by disabling mods individually and ideally sharing your findings.  However... there's probably more to this than that.

If you use the Nexon Launcher do a repair on it.  If you use the Steam version do a verify integrity on it.  Do these things with no mods of any kind active/in use.  That means remove Abyss, remove your data folder, turn off kanan if you use it.  Repair or verify, and note the dates on the files within the BlackCipher directory.  Run clean.  Test it.  Add back in one at a time.  Usually I do Abyss first, then add in the data folder.  It wouldn't hurt to run without a data folder first before doing all of this.  Report your findings back to here so we know your progress and others can see and use it for reference.

Eh, I was in a hurry, so I typed "disabled everything listed for both tiara and abyss" as shorthand.  Anyway, I tinkered with the files.  Renaming the data folder  runs fine so it looks like the Abyss quickfix works.  As for the data folder, I went through your modding report list, but all those seem fine (I didn't have an itemdb for some reason so can't comment on that).  After deleting around a bit, deleting race.xml made the game work again, whatever that file does.  Do I get a cookie now?

The itemdb file, some mod packs do use.  race.xml has 2 different locations and is a different type for each location (the xml locations count as 1 in this case as they're the same file).  In the ..\data\local\xml and ..\data\xml it lists the mob types.  In the ..\data\db location is lists the characteristics and properties of each mob.  So location is important.  The xml locations are more common.  Tiara uses the db location one to add in bosslifebar.  Tiara IS the only mod pack that uses this file to my knowledge.  I didn't list this file under the modding report for that reason.  (It's not commonly used).  I stopped using it myself because it's a pain in the to keep updated and offers so little as far as functionality--but that's me.  So make note of that for future reference.  The other reason I stopped using it was because I attempted to remove redundancies, and useless application of this setting for each entry.  For example: having the doll bags have bosslifebar?  Yeah, that's kinda pointless lol.  This all that I mention was during my tenure with Tiara while maintaining it.

Yes, you get a cookie.
