search your error.

lildevilboy · « **Reply #353 on:** July 04, 2011, 02:17:19 pm »

in the j a p mod? i just don't get how it works fine with just moonshine mod and jap, but when i add mng in everything get messed up.

also play says to set the one thing to 30000. but when i downloaded mng, it only starts out it is at 2600. did he just add an extra 0 or is their not enough 0s on the mod and it really should be 26000?

and i don't understand it. i looked threw and only one i know wat it means is "party board to house" is that the one caused all of it?

lol i looked and don't understand how to fix it from looking at the hackshield error.

i think it has to do with the dbghelp.dl_ file... the game worked fine when i just had moonshine and j a p, but soon as i added mng and changed the .dll to .dl_ it started to mess up...

ROFL you added msn? xD!!! Here's the steps that I use to merge MNG, not msn, with jap.
1. Obviously have them both downloaded.
2. extract everything from the MNG into you're mabinogi directory.
3. Change dbghelp.dll to dbghelp.dl_
4. Now extract everything from Jap, except for the dbghelp.dl_.
5. Set the mods that you want in the .ini of that mod.
6. Make sure there's no conflicting mods when you're setting you're mods.
7. Try setting the thread_delay in MNG to 28000 if you're merging. That tends to be the best result, for me at least. If you're not merging and it's just MNG then I tend to leave it as 30000.
8. See if it works? If it works win. If it doesn't explain the issue. Error codes, screenshots, etc.

Set MNG's THREAD_PROTECT to 0.

I just thought of an idea about helping to prevent problems caused by messed up files!

Making a Backup
Before you start to mod or add mods to your Mabinogi, I suggest that you create a backup 'Mabinogi' for your convenience so that when you mess up, you can fix it with a simple copy and paste.
Steps used to make sure you never get errors:
1. Make sure you have a completely clean and updated Mabinogi folder. E.g. Clean install or Remove all mods.
2. Copy (CTRL+C) your clean Mabinogi folder and paste (CTRL+V) it in a different location such as in 'My Documents'.
3. Rename it to something which you'll remember as being a clean Mabinogi. I named mine 'Original Components', but you can just call it 'Clean Mabinogi'.
4. Put mods back into your original Mabinogi folder (Default should be C:\Nexon\Mabinogi) and then you can play a modded Mabinogi whenever you want.
5. Whenever there's an update for Mabinogi, open the 'Clean Mabinogi' from your Documents and let the launcher update for you. If you didn't know there was an update and you opened your modded Mabinogi, have no fear, just Close the launcher and open the 'Clean Mabinogi' and let it update for you.
6. Once the launcher has finished updating for your 'Clean Mabinogi', go into the folder and click on the tab 'Date Modified' so that it will list the files from top to bottom (starting with folders, then files) in order of Date Modified. Copy all files and folders which have been modified in the last 7 days. Paste ALL of these files and folders into your Modded Mabinogi folder, replacing anything it asks.

This should work for all non-game-breaking mod packs to keep your mods. Unless of course, the patcher functions are broken, then that's not a problem with your own files. Also, if you're using Unofficial Tiara, you'll need to update to the newest version since your Data folder will most likely be outdated each update.

I like this, for sure it'll be added.

However, I dislike the wording you've used.
If you would be so kind as to make it a tad easier to read for those members, I'll gladly toss it in.
Or I can edit it myself if you want, and still credit you for it.

Ok you're on the thread, now go to the first page of this thread. Here comes the hard part, read the guide. After you have read the guide, you should be able to pull it off. If you can't then you are sadly incapable of modding.

Another question. Did you put in in C:\Nexon\Mabinogi and not the mabinogi folder which stores you're screenshots, videos, etc?

i used it from my computer

Ok I'm going to explain this best I can. If this does not help I apologize, it's all I can think of.
1: Download MNG (you'll need a program such as winrar to open it.)
2: extract, copy/paste, drag/drop, etc. The 3 files that are located inside of the MNG. (dbghelp.dll, dbghelp.orig, and MNG.ini.) It will tell you to replace the dbghelp.dll, since that is already used in mabinogi. Be sure you're location is you're mabinogi directory. (default directory is C:\Nexon\Mabinogi) (My computer> C:> Nexon> Mabinogi)
3: Go into the mng.ini and set all mods you want to 1.
4: The thread_delay is too low. There are two choices. Try setting the thread_delay to 28000-30000, works for me, or you can set the thread_protect to 2. Which allows you to click a box at a certain point of time while the pleione engine is loading.
5: Start up mabinogi and hope it works. Good luck.

^ Also this. Forgot about this for a sec. There are two downloads. one for anything prior to windows 7 and another for windows 7. Be sure you're downloading the correct MNG for you're operating system.
