I dont have a laptop that runs Shader Model 4 and that particular res only gets requested on SM4, on fixed pipeline i can play with my rolled back sdbs.

Im using Win XP for ro as on linux i have some troubles with key events. Might try to get that res requested on linux, maybe the same res is used for openGL and then copy it over to XP.

Edit: Worked to download those 2 on linux sm4. Something is messd up with my XP or my RO version on XP. Since the download probably was error free it must be something with inserting the entry into the databases. Anyways, ill copy the linux sdbs over now and hope that bug only appears for big ressources.

Thanks for your help evryone.

I'll run some tests tomorrow with a set of supposedly broken SDBs I got. I'm pretty confident the problem lies there.

Will have to check the download code too *sigh*. I'll probably make it more verbose on Amun to investigate further.

That's an MD5 mismatch. Interesting.

if you know someone who has a working RO, copy their installation dir and try it. I just copied the installation dir from my laptop to my PC, and now it works.

any translation errors entirely mine. I'm not a translator and couldn't be bothered to ask one.

Like ice_zero_cool had, I can't get past the character selection screen because I got certain resources that aren't being downloaded properly. I just realized that I had this problem for a while but I've ignored it since I don't usually play on this computer.



This is the last screen I see before the game disconnects me. And no, they're not being downloaded repeatedly, they're just stuck at those %'s.


Under windows XP, shader model 2.0(Though it supports 4.0)

EDIT: after running the game 3 times under fixed pipeline, I could finally get past that screen, each time it seemed to download more and more missing(?) resources. I switched back to shader model 2.0 and now it works.

With Fixed pipeline?.. all the resources were downloaded?
And they didn't came back??
And are the same resources used in shader 2.0??

[ice_zero_cool]

just a small update from my side:
the latest hotfix loaded perfectly fine for me. no errors and disconnects.

[Quincebo]

Same here.
I hope RO will run smoothly on my new pc

Open the file game.cfg, look for the line 'res_disk_retriever = sdb' and change 'sdb' to sqlite'. Then enter the game again. Then have some patience while it converts the resource database.

I just wanted to let everyone know that when I did this and the resources.db file was created I had to move all the *.sdb and *.idx files to another directory. Otherwise Regnum would check the sdbs have been converted everytime I logged into Regnum which took forever. Othewise works great for me thus far.

EDIT: Scratch that it seems to take years for sqlite database to load like talking like over 5 minutes just to get to the character screen I think I will revert back to sdb.

EDIT 2: Nevermind I restarted the game a third time now it loads fast \o/

EDIT 3: After trying to get the sqlite working I gave up it seems to take forever to load randomly and when I tried to switch back to sdb the whole game broke so I'd avoid this unless you back up your whole regnum directory first...

I was having similar problems on Amun before 1.9.0 was released and then again today. I fixed it by turning off my http proxy.
